Dorothy Mae Greaves
Clerical - about 1980s
May 20, 2026
Dorothy Mae Greaves attended Oregon State University, and was forever proud of climbing Mt. Hood. Soon after the last of her children were born, she became owner and operator of Greaves Beauty School in Rock Springs, which she ran for several years. As the boom of the 1970's took hold in Rock Springs, she acquired her brokerage license and founded Greaves Real Estate.
Later in life she worked for a few different real estate agencies in Phoenix, Arizona. While working in a clerical position at Arizona State University, she earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Administration.
She is survived by her son, five daughters, 17 grandchildren, 30 great grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
She is preceded in death by her husband, Dr. Howard P. Greaves; her parents, Edgar and Mary Skinner; her infant daughter; one sister; three brothers; one brother-in-law; two sisters-in-law; one great grandson; two great-granddaughters; and one son-in-law.
The family respectfully requests donations be made in Dorothy's name to the Holy Spirit Catholic Community New Building Fund, 116 Broadway Street, Rock Springs, Wyoming 8290
