William E. Greehey was born in 1936.
In 1973 the courts appointed Greehey as LoVaca's CEO and president
After graduating in 1960, Greehey first became a certified public accountant and worked for Price Waterhouse.
Greehey grew up in the small town of Fort Dodge, Iowa, in a loving but relatively poor family. By the time he was 12 years old, Greehey had found employment in order to help support his family.
Industry analysts noted that Greehey had grown up in the face of adversity and that his experience certainly played a role in his never-say-die management attitude.
Greehey served in numerous capacities for other organizations, serving on the board of trustees of St. Mary's University and on the Boy Scouts of America's National Advisory Council.
One of Greehey's early decisions was to diversify the natural-gas supplier into the refinement of unleaded gasoline; he had a hunch that the company could prosper from increasing fuel shortages.
In 1963 he was hired by Coastal State Gas Corporation
