I am so sad to hear about Mr. Green passing. I worked with Mr. Green throughout his rehab stay and he was doing so good. He was also excited that he would be going home soon just in time for the basketball season. He would truly be miss. Irene

Uncle:
My Mom informed me that it's been a month since you left us, already. Time doesn't stand still does it? So I know you have the all star team together up there. I know that you are whole and very happy and I am happy for you. I communicated with my Auntie today and she was really missing you. You know that she was around most of my life? Of course you know that.Well I just wanted to drop by and say I love you and miss you my BIGGER THAN LIFE JOLLY GREEN GIANT UNCLE. Tell all of the family hello and don't forget to tell MAGGIE about me. I love you Lisa

Missing my cousin dearly. I constantly look at the pictures from my last visits and cherish his vibrancy and love for chicago. It hurts to not have family with you, but soon peace comes and we understand that they are finally at rest.

We'll stay strong and get through this.

One of the South Akron bunch just informed me that on of our brothers had gone home and was now WALKING AROUND HEAVEN ALL DAY. I grew up with Clarence and he was a great friend. I will always remember the days of walking to Miller School together and just gropwing up. Blessings to all of the family and may God watch over you.

Dear Family of Clarence Green. My name is Rose Marie (Kostoff) Yovanovich and I went all through Miller Elementary School in Akron, Ohio with a wonderful "boy" with the name of Clarence Green. As time went on our paths crossed once at a department store and he was still the neat as a pin, warm and friendly Clarence with the beautiful big smile. Through the years my friends and I wondered what happened to Clarence as he was everyone's friend. I am so very sorry to hear of your loss, but am so happy to read of the wonderful life he led and the wonderful family he loved and that loved him. God Bless and keep him.

To My Family:
I will miss my Bigger than Life Uncle, He was such a large part of my entire life. It was as if he lived right here in Akron Ohio with me. He visited us so much and he always brought my Mom so many beautiful things from the big City when he came home. He treated her like a Princess because he knew she worked to take care of her children.I will miss that big smile and even when my BIGGER than life Uncle wore JEANS you felt like he was going to a Black Tie event. Rest in peace my wonderful Uncle enjoy being in God's presence and being a whole BIGGER than life MAN again. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! I will miss knowing that you are here on earth with us, but I know that you feel better now than you have in years. Tell MAGGIE all about me please.
Love you forever your neice,
Lisa Marie Green ( Wright).
