Mrs. Chloe Greer Fleenor, 89, of Johnson City, completed her life journey and ascended to Heaven on Wednesday, January 17, 2018, after a long period of declining health. She moved to Johnson City four years ago to be closer to her children, but lived most of her life in the Mountain City and Butler communities.
Mrs. Fleenor was a daughter of the late Walter Grady Greer and Golda Irick Greer. She was preceded in death by her brothers, Ned, Dan, Ray and Bob, and two sisters, Corda Hyatt and Dottie M. Greer.
Mrs. Fleenor was a life-long member of the Church of Christ and was currently attending services at Centerview Church of Christ. She also participated in a weekly Bible class at Mekkah’s Meadows, led by Tim Hall, minister of Central Church of Christ. She enjoyed making cookies for Bible school, as well as for her neighbors at Mekkah’s Meadows. She was an avid reader, enjoyed crocheting, and tending her flowers. She made numerous afghans for family and friends, as well as baby blankets.
Mrs. Fleenor was a retired employee of Shadowline in Boone, N.C.
Mrs. Fleenor is survived by a son, Monte D. Fleenor and his wife, Frances, of Elizabethton; a daughter, Karen L. Fleenor and husband, Charlie, of Johnson City; and a special niece, Carolyn Greer. Several nieces and nephews also survive, as well as her church family. She encouraged her children to achieve and to be the best they could be.
