Charles Lafayette Greer

Charles Lafayette Greer, of Stone Mountain, Georgia, passed away suddenly at his home on Thursday, November 12, 2026, with his wife by his side. He was born on October 15, 1941, in Stone Mountain, GA, and throughout his life he was known as a man of deep generosity, steady devotion, and many gifts.

Charles was a butcher/meat cutter who owned his own butcher shop, a vocation that reflected both his skill and his commitment to serving others. He was also a man of remarkable character, remembered as someone who would give you the shirt off his back and then ask what more you needed. That spirit of kindness and openhanded care touched many lives and will remain one of the clearest memories of him.

He lived with a creative and industrious heart. Charles was an artist, a craftsman, a restorer of antique cars, a collector, and a gardener. Whatever he set his hands to, he brought patience, talent, and pride. He found beauty in making, restoring, and tending, and those passions became part of the way he shared himself with the world. His philanthropic nature and willingness to help others spoke not only to what he did, but to who he was.

Above all, Charles was a family man. He shared 63 years of marriage with his beloved wife, Donna, a partnership marked by enduring love and faithfulness. He is survived by his wife Donna; his daughters, Debbi and Kathleen; his son, James; his daughter-in-law, Wendy; his brother Harvey Greer and sister-in-law MaryJo Greer; and his sisters, Nancy Bowling and Lenola Miller and most of all his cherished grand and great-grandchildren. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him and loved him, and his memory will continue to live on in the family he cherished and the many lives he brightened through his generosity.

He was preceded in death by his father and mother Charles and Mildred Greer.

Charles leaves behind a legacy of kindness, hard work, creativity, and love. His life was a blessing, and his memory will be treasured always.
