    Our deepest sympathies. Mrs. Greeson was my homeroom teacher at Portland High School. She was our Junior Class Play and Senior Class Play
    Director at Portland High. A great counselor and advisor and very patient with us as and our juvenile ways. She loved us in spite of our ways and we loved and respected her. I have great memories of her and Mr. Greeson, the Superintendent.

    Just think...
    Of stepping on shore and finding it Heaven,
    Of touching a hand and finding it God's,
    Of breathing new air and finding it celestial,
    Of waking up in glory and finding it home..
    It won't be the same without Dean here at Redwood
