Our cousin and “brother of choice”
So many of Bob’s cousins looked up to him as an older brother, a wise counselor and superb supporter of family functions. Our seasons and celebrations always included cousins Bob and Julie as they tirelessly loved us through joy and sorrow. We will miss Bob and were comforted by the impactful worship service conducted in his honor. The choir music and uplifted prayers will stay with us in memory forever.
Thank you!
Sending prayers, sympathy and love from the Poole family. We know he is now with Our Lord Jesus and His Mother Mary but will be terribly missed.
Eternal Rest unto him O Lord. May he rest in peace.
Message of Condolence
My condolences to the family of Judge Greene. He was one of the first Judges I encountered as a young lawyer. He was kind, considerate and was
always a gentlemen and very helpful to me as a young lawyer trying to make my way through the befuddlement of trying to learn the ins and outs of
a legal career. I appreciated the way he was always a professional of the highest standards. I am saddened at his passing. May God grant him peace
and his family solace in time of their loss.

Boone County legend
A sad day, especially for us Boone County attorneys. Although I did not know the Judge well, I know he was a wonderful man, always had a nice word for everyone. I saw him every year at the polling place and occasionally in court. Truly a life well-lived.
