Charles Greeney Obituary

My condolences to Chucks family - I just found out that he passed when my annual Christmas card to him was returned. Though we rarely talked in person in our adult years, we would always send a yearly card.
I knew Chuck when he lived at Beaver Dam with his parents. His mother was the sweetest lady who taught me how to make French fries and his Dad was always at work. We spent many an afternoon riding on his motorcycle going to poker runs throughout the area. We always had a lot fun during the summer at his lake.
He would always lend a helping hand when needed and helped my mother when my dad passed with the estate taxes. My mom was forever grateful to him for helping and guiding her through those times. He always was a good friend to me and my family.
He always brought a smile to your face and you knew he had a loving heart. He was a good forever friend who is sadly missed. RIP Chuck

I am so saddened to hear of Chuck´s passing. I was his neighbor on Rocky Lane many, many years ago. I saw Chuck a few times over the years, as I would drive by the old neighborhood, and he would be outside. Earlier this year, we spoke and exchanged emails, and caught up, sharing some laughs of both past and present times. Chuck was a kind person, with a great sense of humor. May he rest in eternal peace.

I have known Chucky for 40 years. We became close while going to a group called The Commodore 64 user group of Orange County. Over the years we had many good times together. We would take our boats out on the Hudson River, tie them together and play chess. He took me to my first Civil War re-enactment near Vails Gate. He used to spend hours making color graphic moving pictures with his Commodore 64, then post them on a bulletin board that I ran called the "M&M all night connection" before the internet existed. He asked my son Kevin to make him a computer when I told him how knowledge my son Kevin was getting with computers. I'm not sure he realy needed a computer,, I think he wanted to help my son like he helped so many in his life & he did. That computer build was the first of many my son did after Chucky told Kevin & I how talented in building that computer. Chucky was all about helping others. He gave us his pool he had at his New Windsor home of which my family got years of enjoyment swimming in it. He & I knew we could call each other any time night or day if either of us were in trouble. Late one afternoon he was boating & had hit something disabling his boat. He called me to help, so I took my boat & towed him back. He said I saved his life that day preventing a barge from running over him. I have so many wonderful memories of him. He was my only long time friend, the only one that refused to fade away as all my other friends did over the years. We had many talks about God, and I have watched him over the past 10 years get closer and closer to God. There never was, and will never be anyone like him. I will forever miss my best & only long time friend, Chuck Greeney, lovingly known to me as Chucky, and he always called me Mikey. My condolences to Barbara, and his family. God made Chucky & then broke the mold...

I worked in the same office with Chuck for years. Chuck brought a lot of needed humor into the workplace. He will be missed. My condolences to Chuck's family and loved ones.

Greeney Family,
Every time Chuck came into the pharmacy he always had a smile, told us a joke and asked if we wanted a cup of coffee. I know he would’ve gotten it if we said yes. He had a kind heart and will be sorely missed. Please accept our deepest condolences.
Fondly,
Hannaford Pharmacy

To the family,
Work with Chuck for years. We would work together on various assignments. Chuck always made it a great experience . That friendly smile and a great sense of humor. God has a special place for him.
