Martha Logue Greene was born August 8, 1933 in Cairo, Georgia, to Marvin Logue and Jessie Alberta Mills Logue. She was one of ten children. Martha married the love of her life, Roscoe Haywood (Buck) Greene, Jr. She and Buck raised three children and shared their lives for 64 years before his passing. Martha and Buck were charter members of Tabernacle Baptist Church. A women, strong in her faith, she loved and trusted the Lord. Martha was the Supervisor of the Main House at Beverly Plantation. She was an excellent hostess and cook. She excelled in cooking for large groups. President Eisenhower had some of her wonderful cooking when he visited Thomasville. Her cooking skills were topped only by her sewing talents. From wedding dresses to briar breeches, she has sewn them all. Martha’s family was her world and her grandchildren were her heart. Strong-willed, feisty, independent, much loved by her family, Martha Greene will be deeply missed by her family and many friends.
