Harold David Green

Harold David Green lived a life filled with accomplishment, dedication, and love. On January 14, 2020, at the age of 81,

Harold passed away peacefully at Merit Health Wesley in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, surrounded by his loving wife of 58 years,

two sons, and other beloved family members. A man of enduring might and strength, Harold was blessed with good health

and spent only a few short days of his long, full life hospitalized. Known for his precise, meticulous nature, an abrupt

death seems to be the only thing he ever did quickly. 

            On March 9, 1938, Harold was born in Bogue Chitto, Mississippi, to Charlie and Annabell Green.

The second of seven children, Harold, and his older brother were inseparable, and he was a natural leader

and caring older brother for his younger five siblings. Upon graduating from Bogue Chitto High School,

Harold served as a Corpsman in the US Navy for four years before receiving an honorable discharge in 1960.

            Harold and wife Faye shared their first home in Moab, Utah, after their marriage in 1961.

Harold's successful career with Conoco swept the young couple and their growing family to new homes across the country,

including Colorado and Montana where their sons were born. They later settled in Hattiesburg where their

sons graduated from both high school and college. Though his sons remember his disciplinary expertise

all too well from their childhood, Harold's grandchildren enjoyed the softer side of him, reveling in his affection.

            Harold is predeceased by his parents Charlie and Annabell and his brothers Edd and twin, Harry, who died at birth.

Those left to cherish his memory are his adoring wife Faye; his siblings Gary, Gordon, Helen, Virginia, and Frances;

his older son Wayne and wife Donna and children Sydney and Sinclaire of Hattiesburg; his younger son Greg and wife Denise

and children Emily, Kyle, and Kevin of Bloomington, Illinois; and a host of nieces and nephews. 

            Friends and family are invited to join services for Harold on Thursday, January 16, 2020, for visitation at 1:00 p.m.

and funeral at 2:00 p.m. at Riverwood Family in Brookhaven to be followed by burial at Calvary Baptist Church Cemetery in Bogue Chitto

    May you find peace that you were with your father those days before he passed and there for your mother now.
    Take care.
