CENTRAL CITY – June Greenwood, 88, of Central City, died Wednesday, December 9, 2020 at Greenville Nursing and Rehab. Born August 9, 1932, in McEwen, Tenn. to Carlie and Mary Herbison, the oldest of five children. She enjoyed traveling, square dancing and collecting cup and saucers from friends, family, and places she traveled. She never met a stranger. Her mother once said she was born talking. One thing most people didn’t know about her was her ability to play guitar. In her early life she was a hairstylist and salon owner. Later she was a successful Beauty Control consultant with many awards for sales and recruiting but said her highest accomplishment was her children and grandchildren. She was a member of First Baptist Church of Central City and of the Eastern Star.
