Earl "Bud"
Earnest Greenfield
September 18, 1939 – January 19, 2019
Earl Earnest "Bud" Greenfield was born September 18, 1939 in Parkland, Oklahoma to parents Roy and Ida (Covington) Greenfield. Bud was baptized into the General Assembly and Church of the Firstborn on June 1, 1956 by Brother Louis Wright. After graduating from Agra High School in 1958 he moved to Wichita, Kansas where he met his wife of 49 years, Glenda Box and married her on June 4, 1960. Bud retired from General Motors after 25 years and enjoyed serving on the Chandler City Council for two elected terms.
After the loss of Glenda in 2009 he grieved her passing, eventually he found a companion in Sister Janice Herrmann and they were married on December 19, 2015. Bud and Janice were able to find a lot of joy in the short time they had as husband and wife, it put a spring back in his step, and a twinkle back in his eye.
Bud passed peacefully from this life on January 19, 2019 in Chandler, Oklahoma.
He is preceded in death by his parents, two beautiful wives; one brother, Jim Hopper; three sisters, Zeola Wilkinson, Karen Linder, and Gearl "Sis" Wright.
