We are very sad to announce the death of our brother William John Greenland III. John was born at Tooele, Utah, Feb. 18, 1949, son of William John Greenland Jr. and Raida Callister Greenland. He is survived by sister LaRae (Ronald) Nielson and brothers Dee Wayne (Pearl) Greenland and Allan (Patti) Greenland, and several nieces and nephews, and his loyal and faithful dog Nia. John was preceded in death by his parents, sisters Kay (Paul) Hervat and Janiel (Craig) Lohnes.
Dad always said John could sell ice to the Eskimos. He never did, but he was an excellent car salesman and during the years he sold cars John worked with many customers and enjoyed lasting friendships with several of them.
Always a Yankee fan, John had a large collection of Yankee baseball caps which he proudly displayed in his home. If looking for a gift for John, the latest Yankee cap was always a good choice.
After retirement John looked forward to times when he could travel to Mexico for a winter break from the snow and enjoy the warmth of the sun. Per his request the family will honor John’s wish for a private family burial on a warm, sunny day. We love you dear brother.
