Donald W Greenlee

He was born on February 6, 1934 to Claude Vernon and Mary Louisa Stewart Greenlee in Breckenridge, Texas. He graduated from Aledo High School in 1952. He worked in the oilfield most of his career, retiring from Chevron in 1992.

He is survived by his younger brother, Glenn, of Indianapolis, Indiana; a brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Raymond and Jackie Sessom; a brother-in-law and sister-in-law T. and Beth Watkins; a brother-in-law and sister-in-law Fritz and Debra Rosenthal – all of San Angelo; a brother-in-law David Plumlee and wife Leslie of California: a brother-in-law John Plumlee of Dallas; his son Mitch Greenlee and wife Misti; a daughter Leslie Jones and husband David; grandchildren Evan Jones, and Chelsea Jones – both of San Angelo; Jonathan Greenlee of San Antonio and Jeff Leary, Brian Leary, and Kimery Leary; great-grandchildren, Devon May, Lilyth Smith, and Penelope Jones all of San Angelo. He also leaves behind some special friends, Wayman Love, Janie Malone, his D.Q. Coffee buddies, his friends at Calvary Baptist Church, and his “exercise” buddies at Mitchell County Hospital.

He was preceded in death by his parents, his twin brother, Ronald, his brother and sister Margie and Stewart, and his wife of 31 years Janie Lou Greenlee.

Anyone who knew Don would tell you he had a unique sense of humor. He loved to “get a rise” out of anyone he met. Whether he was directing the new pastor to the wrong house down the block or lying about his time in the military (of which he had none) he kept everyone smiling. His Greenlee-isms were also a source of comedy to unsuspecting, naïve ones.

A memorial service for Don will be held on Monday, December 16th at 2pm at the Calvary Baptist Church in Colorado City with pastors Paul Smith and James Williams officiating. The family will receive friends at the church from 1 pm until the time of the service.

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to the American Heart Association or any other charity of your choice.
