DANIEL ARTHUR GREENBERG
FAMILY GRAVESIDE SERVICE: 1:30 PM TUESDAY 8/18/2020 at HEBREW MEMORIAL PARK CEMETERY .
Dr. Daniel Arthur Greenberg of Farmington Hills, MI, died suddenly on August 15, 2020 at the age of 88.
Known to friends and family as Dan or Danny, he led a full and active life characterized by intellectual curiosity and humor. A lifelong Michigan resident and navy veteran, Dan received his bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and his master's degree and doctorate from Wayne State University.
Dan taught film and broadcasting at Oakland Community College for more than three decades, from the opening of the Orchard Ridge campus in 1967 until his retirement. He was an avid movie buff, serving many years as film critic for the Observer and Eccentric newspapers. He was also an active member of Adat Shalom Synagogue, as well as a dedicated volunteer for both the University of Michigan Alumni Association and the Holocaust Memorial Center. In his retirement, Dan took a keen interest in genealogy --- delighting in research, connecting with distant relations and editing a book based on an uncle's handwritten work, titled The Forgotten Son, an Autobiography of Hyman Adelstein. He also became the founder and sole proprietor of the Teeny Tiny Card Company, producing original and humorous designs to amuse family and friends.
Dan is survived by three loving children: Julie (Ronald Chaney) Greenberg, Jonathan (Elana) Greenberg and Elizabeth (Eric Hall) Greenberg; seven adored grandchildren: Benjamin Chaney, Isabel Chaney, Noah Greenberg, Zachary Greenberg, Lily Greenberg, Ethan Hall and Rebecca Hall; and his beloved companion, Esther Liwazer.
Dan is preceded in death by an infant son, Kenneth Michael Greenberg, and his cherished wife of over 48 years, Roslynne Faye Greenberg (née Mayer).
