James "Jim" E. Greeson, 86, of Fillmore, passed away on Jan. 24, 2021 peacefully at Hendricks Regional Health.

Jim was born on Aug. 25, 1934 in Amo to Earl and Clarice (Brown) Greeson.

He was preceded in death by his parents and seven brothers and sisters.

He is survived by his loving wife of 63 years, Kay (Greenlee) Greeson. They were married on Aug. 22, 1958 at Coatesville Christian Church. He is also survived by two sons, Steve Greeson and Dale Greeson; four grandchildren and one great-granddaughter.

Jim graduated from Amo High School in 1954. He was a proud Amo Ace basketball player.

After school, Jim was a lifelong farmer raising row crops and livestock. He was a former employee of J.D. Adams and served as a member of the Floyd Township Advisory Board. He retired from being a school bus driver for the North Putnam School Corporation after 34 years. He always talked about the enjoyment of driving the varsity football and basketball teams to games.

Jim was one to always have the best joke to make someone laugh or smile. He could always be found on the farm riding his Kubota and tending to his longhorns and donkeys that he was so proud of.

Services will be held at 1 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 28 at the Bousley Funeral Home with visitation from 10 a.m. until time of service. Burial will follow at the Coatesville Cemetery. The family has requested that masks be worn and social distancing observed.
