Obituary for Phyllis Audrey Greene
Phyllis Audrey (Price) Greene, 90, of Haymarket, VA, went to be with her Lord and Savior on
March 17, 2024 at her home in Haymarket, Virginia, surrounded by family and loved ones.
Phyllis was the daughter of David J. and Carrie (Hill) Price, born on December 26, 1933, in
Sagamore, Pennsylvania.
Phyllis was a woman who lived life with unbridled enthusiasm and a passion for fine jewelry and
clothing. She strutted through life in high heels with a fashion sense as sharp as her wit. With a
TV remote always at arm’s reach, she could out-shop anyone from QVC and HSN in a heartbeat.
She was known fondly for her endless purse collection filled with mints to savor life’s sweetness
and original sayisms. Her quick responses and sharp sense of humor kept everyone on their toes,
and her daily lunch outings were the highlight of her day – leaving no geography uncovered in
search of the best delicacies.
Most importantly, Phyllis had an unwavering faith and love for her Lord Jesus Christ. As the
matriarch of the family, she was a fierce prayer warrior. She was always there for her family,
lending support and giving sound scriptural advice.
Phyllis lived her life to the fullest, leaving a legacy of laughter, style, and faith. May her spirit
shine brightly in our hearts, reminding us to savor every moment just as she did.
Surviving are three children: her son David J. and wife Laura of Emporium, Pennsylvania; her
son, Douglas L. and wife Dawn of Fredericksburg, Virginia; and her daughter Carrie L. (Greene)
and husband Skip Powers of Haymarket, Virginia; seven granddaughters Christie, Kellie, Alicia,
Audrie, Ashlie, Patricia, and Natalie; and 13 great-grandchildren: Baylie, Judah, Danillio, Kiera,
Mia, Darian, Colin, Renee, Vivienne, Noelle, Liam, Quinn and Cross.
She was preceded in death by her parents: her husband, Clifford J. Greene, in 2018; four brothers, David, Mac, Calvin and William; five sisters, Edna, Arveda, Helen, Winifred and Mildred; and great-grandson Luciano.
The family will receive visitors Friday, March 22 nd from 2- 4 p.m. and 6- 8 p.m. at the Rairigh-
