Stanley Michael Greenway

Stanley Michael Greenway I, beloved father, son, brother, grandfather, uncle, and friend, passed away on July 16, 2025, in Landrum, South Carolina. A longtime resident of Greer, he was known as “Mike” to his friends and family. He was born in South Carolina to William and Wilma Greenway, who instilled in him the values of faith, hard work, and kindness that guided his life.

Mike proudly served his country in the United States Army as Military Police during the Vietnam War. He also had a lifelong love of music and was a gifted guitar player, performing at church, community gatherings, and family events. His music was a source of joy to all who heard him.

A graduate of Landrum High School and Furman University, Mike was devoted to his church and community, sharing his time and talents generously. He will be remembered for his warm heart, quick wit, and his constant willingness to help others.

He is survived by his daughter, Patricia Greenway; stepdaughter, Wendy Alcala; brother, Alan Greenway; sister-in-law, Greta Greenway; niece, Rhiannon; and four grandchildren, Lillian, Zarik, Mackenzie, and Josh. He was preceded in death by his wife and soulmate, Sandy Benze (2019); his sister, Vickie Greenway (2019); and his son, Michael Greenway (1998).

Mike’s life was a testament to love, service, and generosity, and his memory will live on in the music he played and the many lives he touched. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in his honor to the Landrum High School Band, c/o Jonas Nix – Band Director, Landrum High School, 18818 Asheville Highway, Campobello, SC 29322.
