Sergeant Jeffrey Wayne Greene "Jeff" MONROE - Sergeant Jeffrey Wayne "Jeff" Greene, beloved husband, father, grandfather and friend went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, November 19, 2014. Sgt. Greene, 54, was born July 21, 1960 in Jacksonville, Florida. He graduated from Samuel W. Wolfson High School in Jacksonville, FL. Sgt. Greene was also a proud United States Air Force Airman and a United States Marine, serving his country for 10 years and receiving an honorable discharge in 1989.

*Survivors removed per Find A Grave policy.

Sgt. Greene began his career with the Union County Sheriff's office in December 2004. He currently supervised the Support Services Bureau and previously served as a supervisor in the jail. He often spoke of being in his "dream Job" and his work ethic, integrity and professionalism demonstrated this.

He also was a member of the Renegade Pigs, a law enforcement motorcycle club that preformed charity assistance for members and families of public safety organizations. Sgt. Greene will be remembered for his friendly smile, sense of humor, impeccable work ethic and kindness. He loved all kinds of music and was a devoted Florida Gators fan. Although he will be missed here on earth more than words can describe, his family and friends can take comfort knowing that he has slipped the bonds of earth to be with his heavenly Father. Visitation will be Friday, November 21, 2014, from 6pm until 8pm at Lakeview Baptist Church in Monroe.

It is with deep regret we report the loss of a Brother from the Union County Sheriff's Office, Monroe, NC. Sergeant Jeffrey Wayne Greene, 54, was killed when a semi-truck overturned on top of his cruiser at a red light. The driver of the semi-truck was attempting to avoid slamming into a tanker truck that had stopped at the red light. The truck struck a second vehicle attempting to avoid the tanker before overturning onto Sgt. Greene's cruiser. Regretfully, he succumbed to his injuries.

Sergeant Greene is a United States Marine Corps and United States Air Force veteran. He joined the Union County Sheriff's Office in 2004 and was promoted to Sergeant in 2006. He is survived by his wife, two daughters and five grandchildren.

Deputy Greene is the 100th Officer honored by Blue Line Across America to fall in the line of duty during 2014. He is the 2nd Officer lost this year from the State of North Carolina.
