Our precious mother, Mary Greenhalgh, sadly passed on Friday, October 13, 2023 at the age of 89, after a lengthy fight with Alzheimer Disease. She was a wonderful mother of 7 children who was always there when they needed her. She was also there for many of our childhood friends and was known as“Mother Green” to most of them. She had many friends and was a much loved member of the community of Riverton, Wyoming, as well as the Riverton Senior Center and Red Hat Society. Mary had a contagious laugh, was a nurturer and compassionate to the needs of others even when she didn’t have much for herself. She dealt with many hard times and heartaches but always persevered with grace and humility.
