Obituary of Thomas Campbell Greenlees
Thomas C. Greenlees of Asharoken, New York died January 6th at St. Catherine of Siena Hospital, Smithtown, New York. When three, he and his family moved to Asharoken where he remained a resident until his death. Tom was a Northport High School graduate. He found enjoyment in all things, though fishing, boating, camping, secret shopping, listening to the Grateful Dead, and helping raise his nieces and nephews were highest. Being an Eagle Scout held great meaning for him, as did his James E. West Award from the Boy Scouts of America. Tom is survived by his mother, Mary Campbell Nixon Greenlees, his aunt, Jean Ruggles of Montauk, his older siblings, James (Anna Marie), Mary Alison Lowery (Steven), Bruce (Tracey), Margaret (Michael Atkinson), Peter (Maureen) and sixteen nieces and nephews. His father, James C. Greenlees, Jr, predeceased him (2013). In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts to one of the following organizations are suggested: Stepping Stones (Huntington, NY), Options for Community Living (Smithtown, NY) or Concerns for Independent Living (Medford, NY) are suggested.
