William S. Greenaway
September 12, 1937 –
William Spencer Greenaway passed away peacefully at home in Sun City Fla., on July 8, 2021. Bill was born Sept. 12, 1937, in Bedford, Ohio, to Christine Bartholomew Greenaway and George Spencer Greenaway.
Bill played baseball, basketball and football in high school and was a star athlete. He worked at Grandview Golf and Country Club, Middlefield, Ohio, in the summers, where he took up the game and became an excellent golfer. He played for 65 plus years and loved every round.
He went on to college at Grove City in Pennsylvania where he graduated with a business degree.
Bill met the love of his life on a blind date in 1964. Donna Jean Miltner, an elementary school teacher in Olmsted Falls and Berea, Ohio. Bill and Donna were married at St. Adalbert Catholic Church, June 19, 1965, in a beautiful ceremony with many family and friends in attendance. Their love was 56 years young.
They began their married life together in Strongsville, Ohio, where Donna continued to teach and Bill was employed at Osbourn manufacturing in Cleveland. Bill travelled the world during his 40 plus years with the company, going to Mexico, Singapore, England, India, Germany, Venezuela, to name a few.
Bill and Donna retired and moved to Sun City Center, Fla., to be near her parents, Bob and Lenore Miltner. Bill worked remotely for Osbourn for a few years more because the company couldn’t find anyone more dedicated to fill his place!
They loved to dance, dine and enjoy a cocktail on occasion with many friends at the Caloosa Country Club and enjoyed life to the fullest.
They had many of Donna’s family members, cousins, aunts and uncles from her father’s side (Robert Miltner) and enjoyed fun holidays and family time with them over the years.
Bill had two younger siblings, Thomas and Vicki. Sadly, Tom passed away in June of 2020. Bill has one sister-in-law, Nadine; one niece, Christine (Matthew); three nephews, Brian (Amberly), Bradley (Jennifer) and Brandon; two grand nephews, Conner and Zachary Thomas; and one grandniece, Linden Christine, His sister Vicki and her husband, Jed Smith, live in Naples, Florida.
A limb has fallen from the family tree that says please don’t grieve for me. Remember the best times, the laughter, the song, the good life I lived while I was strong.
A celebration of life will be arranged at a later time.
