A celebration of her life will be held on Sept. 7 at noon EDT at Goodsell United Methodist Church with the Rev. Randy Kelley officiating. Interment will follow at Resthaven Memorial Gardens in Lanett.

Mrs. Greenwood was born in Bessemer on Feb. 20, 1926. She was the youngest born to the union of the Rev Lamar Zeigler, a former pastor of Goodsell United Methodist Church, and Hattie Laston, a seamstress of Cherokee Indian descent. Being the daughter of a Methodist minister, she lived in many cities in the North Alabama area until her father received an appointment with Goodsell United Methodist Church in the early 1930s. She lived her entire teenage childhood in Lanett residing at the Goodsell parsonage. In 1943, she married Lamar Greenwood and to this union, four children were born.

She was content with the duties of taking care of her husband and children. She enjoyed cleaning, cooking and making sure their home was in order. After their children left for college, her favorite pastime was watching soap operas and talking on the telephone to family and friends.

Mrs. Greenwood is survived by her loving children, Constance G. Moore, of Atlanta, Lawrence “Larry,” Leon “Jerry” Greenwood, of Lanett, and Derek L. Greenwood, of Jacksonville, Florida; one brother in law, Godfrey Greenwood (Bobbie); numerous nieces and nephews; and a very special neighbor and friend, Constance “Kitty” Ray.

She was preceded in death by her loving husband, Lamar and four siblings, a sister, Gwendolyn Hill; three brothers, Lamar Jr., Toussaint and Nathaniel Zeigler.

The family requests in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Goodsell United Methodist Church Building Fund.
