John William Greene

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of John William Greene, who left us on October 9, 2026, at the age of 63. Born on July 6, 1963, in Miami, Florida, John spent his life creating cherished memories and spreading joy to all who knew him. He resided in Moss Bluff, Louisiana, where he was a beloved husband, father, and friend.

 John was a devoted family man, finding his greatest joy in the company of his wife and son Melissa and Hayden. He was often seen with a reflection of his kind heart, a true strong work ethic, and generous spirit. He enjoyed working as a Cellular Technician for Verizon Wireless for 23years. His passion for fishing brought him peace, serving as a backdrop for countless family gatherings and moments of reflection. He always enjoyed playing video games with his son, who he was immensely proud of, and watching movies with his family, even though he may have fallen asleep from time to time. John’s laughter and love will resonate in the hearts of those who had the privilege to know him. 

John is survived by his loving wife, Melissa Greene; son, Hayden John Greene; Brother, Gus Eugene Greene Sr and wife Shanda; and nieces and nephews, Christina DeHart, Gene Greene Jr., Travis Greene, and Michael L. Greene II.
