Writing for myself, and taking the liberty to speak for your beloved companion pets, Socrates and Plato, we  grieve our loss.  Gratefully we remember your friendship and caring.  Thank you!

Mr. Greenhaw was my principal from 1st thru 7th grade at Joseph N. Neel. He was a wonderful person and a caring administrator. All us students felt safe at school and VERY respectful. He handled our school during the integration turmoil. It was seemless. He will be missed.

Dear Bill,
I enjoyed all the times we had together working in the music program at Vineville Baptiist chuech.  I appreciate you always taking the time to travel with the V-Men as we went on our tours.  I also appreciate your astute knowledge and perceptions regarding education in our school system and your good sense of humor in handling any problems that came up in education and the church..  I am a Vietnam Veteran and I appreciate your service in the Army.  You were such a great guy and our loss on earth will be heaven's gain.
Presently I am ill and was unable to attend the funeral.

Bill and I worked together playing and directing music at Centenary from 2003 to 2006.  I was in college and Bill encouraged and mentored me my entire time at Mercer University.  We worked together, but we were also friends.  Even after I graduated and moved back to Augusta we would still keep in touch through email and phone calls, and every time I came back to Macon would try to plan to meet up for a meal or a short meeting.  Bill visited me in Augusta and was an honored guest at Rachel and my wedding.  Bill was soft spoken, but everything that he said was a kind word.  He loved music and playing hymns on the organ, and it is testament to his strength and character that he played even up to a few weeks ago.  Bill was a wonderful friend to me and my family.  Our sympathies go to his family and so many other friends he has blessed in his life.

We love you Bill,
Mitchell and Rachel

Bill Greenhaw was an example of what a Christian should be. He lived his life the way God intended a life to be lived. He had a productive career as an Educator and he used his talents in service to God for many, faithful years. He will be sadly missed by many people. Donna and I extend our deepest sympathy to all those who loved Bill.

Mr. Greenhaw, was my principle at Joseph N. Neel School in Macon when I was 6 years old.  From 1st until 7th grade, he was a good man. His light shall shine forever!

Bill, Thank you for your service to two churches. Truly a man of God who has shaped the lives of many through teaching and through your music.  We will miss you at your usual place at the organ.

We moved next door to Bill in 2006.He was the first neighbor to welcome us.There wasn't a day that passed when Bill was not kind to my family. We are going to miss hearing him play his piano and we will miss Bill even more.   Mark & Regina Morrow

Mr. Bill Grveenhaw, my teacher, my friend.
I remember my first day in his 8th grade
math class.The bell rang everyone got quiet and he announced,"My name is Mr. 
Greenhaw...not Greenhay or Heehaw...but
Mr. Greenhaw.He got everything off on the right foot.His class was a model of 
decorum....except when he left the room
to go to the office...then being an all boy school there have been a couple of
spit balls thrown at the fans at either end of the room #135.(no airconditioning
in those days).When my wife and I joined
Vineville Baptist in 1975,there he was
He was such a southern gentleman and a good man who led all others by example and counsel.He played piano for our men's
choir "The V Men" for many years and played the organ for my mother's Funeral.
I loved him and will miss him, but I know
where he is.May the family and his many friends be comforted by their memories of
him.

Calm and erudite amid a sea of volatile teens, William Greenhaw helped to plant the seeds of intellectual curiosity in me, who became a teacher. To his family and loved ones, be assured that my prayers and blessings are with you.

We have enjoyed seeing Mr. Greenhaw  as a patient at Eye Physicians over the years. He was a very kind gentleman.He will be greatly missed. William H. Jarrard, M.D., Susan Simonton Payne, Connie Barnes, Gail Thomas.

Bill was a wonderful man who served God faithfully. It was a honor to serve with him  on staff at Vineville. He was always caring for my family during our time at Vineville. He will be missed. Now, he is in the presence of Jesus, which is the best place to be.

Mr. Greenhaw was an excellent teacher and he will be missed.  He was an outstanding influence on many, many people who are successful today because of his hard work.  Our prayers and thoughts are with you during this time of grief. May God bless him and his family.  Frank  Willingham

You lived your life by example.  I know you and my father are quietly comparing notes now.  You mark the ending of an era for me.  Sir, you will be sorely missed.         Dr. John Swint, Macon, GA.

Bill Greenhaw was a fine person, and I consider him the best teacher that I had. He taught 8th grade math at Lanier, Jr. and primarily because of him I started college as a math major to teach high school math. I ended up as a CPA---he could only do so much with some of us.
I was also his Macon News paper carrier when he lived in an apartment house on Coleman Avenue. I was taking a test in his class one day when he stopped at my desk and told me I had thrown his paper on the porch the day before. Yes Sir! I replied. Mr. Greenhaw then informed me that the porch had just been painted--did not help with concentration during the rest of the test.
He was a good person, and I will miss him.

You were a wonderful deacon - so caring and devoted.  You will certainly be missed at Vineville.

Grace Reeves

We celebrate your life, music, example and friendship;  all wonderful and lasting memories.
Jesse E. Waller, Jr.
