A teacher who taught patience, love, and kindness not only in her classroom, but to everyone she met. You were soft spoken back then and even into your golden years. I’m going to miss seeing you on Sunday’s, but I thank GOD for allowing me to share HIS word with you every weekend. Thank you for teaching me and my husband, for your ministry in the United Methodist Church, and for just being the best teacher anyone could have ever had at Mercedes High School. You are what GOD’s grace looks like on earth. Thanks again for all our small chats, the hugs, and kisses on Sundays .... we will love you always Mrs. Greenwood.
Marie Greenwood was a very inspirational woman. Deepest sympathies to the Greenwood family and friends during this difficult time.
A gentle and caring soul, that's how I remember her. She cared for all students in her charge and in school. She made us feel.important to her. May she rest in peace.
I will never forget the great outlook she had about everything. Always in a joyous mood, full of energy and ever so patient.
Mrs. Greenwood inspired me to continue my education past High School. Her patience was beyond my comprehension. She was an inspiration for whoever had her as a teacher.
Me and my dad had her as a teacher...very nice lady. My English was never perfect but she never made fun of it... May she rest in peace.
