Earl J. Greensweight, age 68, of Inverness, FL passed away Wednesday, May 17, 2017 at Citrus Memorial Hospital, Inverness. Earl was born on August 3, 1948 in Pottstown, PA to the late Alvin and Mabel (Freed) Greensweight.
He proudly served his country as a member of the United States Army and went on to work as a Heavy Equipment Mechanic after his military service. On August 4, 1998 he married Lois (Isaacs) with whom he shared 19 wonderful years of marriage. They made Citrus County, FL their home 3 years ago after Earl finally convinced Lois to relocate from New Jersey. This choice was made after visiting Lois’s 92 year old Aunt Helen Blum, who was a longtime resident in Inverness and with whom they had spent many hours. Earl loved her like his own. He was a longtime biker and enjoyed getting out and riding with Lois every Sunday and enjoyed working in the yard. Earl was also known to be extremely helpful to his neighbors and friends.
In addition to his loving wife Lois, Earl’s passing will be mourned by his sons: Earl Greensweight, Jr. and Christopher (Nicole) Greensweight, both of New Jersey; stepdaughters: Debbie (Dennis) Dolbow of Edgewater, FL, Cindy Granato of Bridgeton, N.J., Pam (Joe) Arcara of Bridgeton, N.J., Patsy (Bryan) Counsellor of Buckhead, GA; sister, Bertha Robinson of New Jersey; grandchildren: Riley, Grayson, Mya, Gabriel, Quinn, Greysen, Dana, Dennis II, Aaron, Carley, Francesca, Sebastiano, Ethen, Shelby; great-grandchildren: Rose, June; lifelong friends: Gary Mosher, Danny Cugler, Buddy Walters, Bob Cannizzaro; and his very special Chocolate Lab, Duke.
Earl’s family plans to lay his urn to rest at the Salem County Veterans Cemetery in Pilesgrove Township New Jersey at a later date. Cremation arrangements are under the direction of the Chas E. Davis Funeral Home with Crematory, Inverness, FL.
