Myrtice Faye Anderson Green, widow of Ernest O. Green, got her wings today. She is the daughter of Robert Jiles and Bertha Anderson (dec). She was born in Glennville and moved to Brunswick as a child. She met and married her husband and was happily married for fifty eight years until his death in 2001.
She is survived by her three loving and caring children; Ernest J. Green, Rita Grovola, and Jean Dickey. As well as her brother, Eddie Anderson. She has five grandchildren; Terry Grovola (Lynda), Karen Thompson, Laurie Dickey, Todd Dickey, and Josh Dickey (Jen). She also has several great and great, great “grands” and many wonderful cousins, nieces, and nephews. She dearly loved and cherished all of her family.
“Nan” became her new name as the “grands” started coming. Everyone loved her. She was a true Southern lady and treated everyone with love, dignity, and respect. She was totally unselfish and always lent a hand to all who were in need. Until she became bedridden, she showed true hospitality and no one ever left her home hungry. Her body wore out, but her mind and memory remained as sharp as ever.
Golden Isles Hospice Homecare provided love, support, and mental and physical care. They became like family and we are grateful for their love and compassion.
