Anna Marie Greene

Anna is reunited with her parents, Lee Smith Greene and Grace Musetta Greene. She is survived by her husband, Ronald Long, her brothers Lee S. Greene and James C. Greene, her nephew Zachary H. Greene (Caitlin), and her great nephews, Harris and Grayson. She also is survived by lifelong friend James Chandler, whom the family thanks for his help and support during Anna’s last days.

Anna loved travel, laughter, and good food. She spent her adult life caring for others as a nurse. For most of her career, she served as a surgical nurse at Memorial Hospital in Chattanooga. Her skill, devotion, and work ethic earned her promotions to leadership roles in the surgery department, culminating with the position of senior director of operations and orthopedics. Because these more advanced positions required a nurse with a bachelor’s degree, Anna went back to school mid-career and earned her BSN while working full-time in the operating room.

The family thanks the dedicated healthcare professionals at Memorial Hospital, Erlanger Women’s Oncology, The Rosewood at Fort Oglethorpe, and Tapestry Hospice who cared for Anna with ability and compassion.

No visitation or service is scheduled. You can honor Anna by thanking a healthcare worker or donating in her memory to the Memorial Hospital Foundation or the United Methodist Church.

Chattanooga Funeral Home East Chapel has been entrusted with the arrangements.
