May 16, 1943 - January 16, 2021
Sunny Greer passed away on January 16 at her home in La Grande Oregon. She went to be with her Lord quietly, peacefully, with family at her side. We who were with her felt privileged and honored to be able to walk that last life journey with her, to see her off on that great journey, and to say a temporary good-bye to her.
Sunny was born on May 16, 1943, to William Robert âBobâ and Shirley J. Gott in Kansas City Missouri. Her family in Denver have always called her Marcia but her Uncle Nate called her Sunshine, and she has always been Sunny to everyone outside her immediate family. Shortly after Sunnyâs birth, Bob went to Europe with an army transportation battalion and drove trains literally all over Europe carrying troops and supplies to the front lines during World War II. Sunny probably had the same reaction as many military children do when this stranger walked in the door and Mom says, âThis is your Daddy.â
