Linda Green, age 78, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, in Murfreesboro, TN. She was born in West Chester, PA on February 9, 1948, to the late Thomas Thompson and Edith (Phillipi) Thompson.
Linda spent many years serving others through her career in Dietetics at the VA Medical Center, a role she took great pride in before enjoying her well-deserved retirement. She was also a woman of deep faith and a former member of Lighthouse Baptist Church, where she loved celebrating her Savior, Jesus. Those who knew her well will fondly remember her immense love for animals, her enthusiasm for NASCAR, her love of reading and dominoes, and her dedication to sending letters and cards to missionaries every month.
She was reunited in heaven with her beloved husband, James Green, Sr., three of her sons, one of her grandsons, her parents, two of her sisters, and many other friends and loved ones. She is survived by her sons Frank Fisher, Michael Fisher, George Green, William Green, and a host of extended family, grandchildren, and dear friends who will miss her deeply.
A viewing will take place on Wednesday, November 18th, 2026, at 10 am at Lighthouse Baptist Church, 1842 Otts Chapel Rd, Newark, DE 19702. There will be a celebration of Linda’s life at 11 am. Burial will follow at the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Linda’s memory to Proverbs 12:10 Animal Rescue, honoring her lifelong love for animals.
