Rebecca "Becky" Wilson Greene

Rebecca “Becky” Wilson Greene passed away on July due to complications from Alzheimer’s Disease.

Becky was preceded in death by her husband, Gerald Greene, her parents, Reuben and Gurlia Wilson and her brother, George Wilson.

Becky is survived by her daughter, Pam Dixon, her son Eric Greene, Pam’s son Matthew and his wife Hayley and their daughter Emma Rebecca Dixon. She also leaves behind two faithful, loving and devoted sisters, Nelda Pace (Harold), Sue Ballard and many loved nieces, nephews and cousins. She will also be remembered by her long-time friends from Bent Creek Baptist Church, Pole Creek Baptist Church, Biltmore Baptist Church and the friends she made at different work places throughout her life.

Becky grew up in the apple country of Edneyville, NC, and spent much of her humble childhood working hard next to her father, mother, sisters and brother George. Becky started singing gospel music at a young age and continued this ministry throughout her life.

Proverbs 31 best describes the person that was Becky as she lived her life full of faith, purity of heart, charity, kindness and always putting the needs of others above herself. The Becky you met or heard sing, was the Becky she was at home and with her family. Becky was full of life and always had a spirit about her that others wanted to be around. Becky loved to work in her yard, feed the squirrels and birds, read, sew, keep a clean house, and cook for her family, especially for her grandson Matt. Her Salisbury steak and mashed potatoes were the best ever.

She will be greatly missed by who all who knew her, but we will all take comfort in knowing that she is in place where she is whole and can look out for us from above, the same as she did everyday of her life here on earth.

A receiving of friends will occur at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, July 28 at Groce Funeral Home on Patton Avenue in Asheville, with a funeral service to follow at 2:00 p.m. and burial afterwards at Pisgah View Memorial Park in Candler, NC.

The family would like to thank the Memory Care Staff at Brookdale of Walden Ridge and the staff at Elizabeth House in Hendersonville for their loving care of Becky.
