Mrs. Jessie Mae Harris Greene, daughter of the late Nancy Felton and Willie Gary, was born on June 10th, 1941, in Dooly County. She was a 1959 graduate of D.F. Douglass High School. At an early age she professed her faith in Jesus Christ and joined Mount Pleasant C.M.E. Church where she was cherished and a dedicated member. Mrs. Greene was employed at Gold King until she retired at the age of 62. Susie Q, as she was affectionately called, was a devoted mother. Her most proudest accomplishment was her three children who adored her. When she was able to attend, she loved church and always listening to Sunday morning gospel music. Most of all she loved cooking for her family and spoiling her grandchildren, she also loved doing word search puzzles, sitting on her porch, watching old westerns, and dancing. She especially liked traveling with her two daughters.
