"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 93, No 6, p 190, Aug. 7, 1922.
Arthur Benton Greene was born November 2, 1848, and died July 21, 1922.
He was the son of Philip S. and Olivia Clark Greene, and was born in Alfred, N. Y., where he has spent his entire life. He was educated in Alfred University. On July 9, 1885, he was married to Mary E. Sherman. To them were born three children: Leon; Bertha, who died two years ago with influenza; and Dorothy who died when but a child.
In early life he was baptized and united with the First Alfred Seventh Day Baptist Church and remained a conscientious and earnest member all his life. When a young man, because of his devotion to the Sabbath, he refused work that was inviting and promised large opportunities in the way of position and salary. He was much devoted to his family, home, and community. He was faithful, honest, and industrious in all his walks of life. He had large interests in the community and was a liberal giver to the church, the university, and other needy causes.
His occupation was that of carpenter and builder. He built the home in which he spent his entire married life.
He is survived by his wife, his son, a sister, Mary L., and a brother Frank L., all of Alfred, except the son who lives in Gainsville, Fla.
He was ill in bed for five weeks previous to his death, and was faithfully and lovingly cared for by his wife. Funeral services were conducted at his home by his pastor and he was laid to rest in the Alfred Rural Cemetery.
