Jimmie Green, 78, passed away peacefully in his home on Friday, September 2, 2016 with family by his side.
Jimmie was born on October 15, 1937 in Mt. Storm, West Virginia, the son of the late Albert and Ethel Green. After graduating from Bayard High School, class of 1956, he attended West Virginia University obtaining his Bachelor of Science degree in Agriculture. Jimmie dedicated a large portion of his life serving in third world countries as a volunteer with International Voluntary Services and then as a Foreign Service Officer with the United States Agency for International Development. After returning to the United States, he operated the family farm, and later moved his family to Winchester, VA where he worked as a carpenter building custom homes. Jimmie spent the last twenty years working at the Sunnyside Food Lion, retiring earlier this year. Jimmie was a dedicated and devoted member of Braddock Street United Methodist Church serving many years as President of the United Methodist Men, while also volunteering with Heart Havens, Kairos Prison Ministry, Wycliffe Bible Translators, and countless other faith based organizations.
He was a loving father, grandfather, and friend to many. Jimmie can be remembered for his kind heart, his love of food (especially desserts), but most of all for his service to Christ, his Lord and Savior. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.
Jimmie is survived by his daughter, Rachel Green and her significant other, Tony Lucas of Alexandria, Virginia; two sons, Daniel Green of McLean, Virginia and Timothy Green and his wife, Lynda of Stephens City, Virginia; four grandchildren, Brandon, Christian, Cameron and Thomas; sister, Betty Green also of Winchester, as well as many extended family members and close friends.
In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by a brother, Elwood Green and a sister, Flora Mae Green.
A Celebration of Life service will be conducted at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, September 10, 2016 with Reverend Kirk Nave officiating at Braddock Street United Methodist Church.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his honor to the Winchester District United Methodist Men, 115 Wolfe Street, Winchester, Virginia, 22601.

Daniel, we just found out today and our thoughts and prayers are with you. We didn't know Jimmie but over the years we felt as if we had. I remembered him always bringing dear Betty to work. Many blessings to your family.

Jim was a true servant of the Lord. We know that he has heard, "Well done good and faithful servant." He will be greatly missed and so glad that he was a part of our life.

Mr. Jimmie was a wonderful soul. I live up the street from Food Lion and saw him often. I loved going through his line. He knew my name and asked about my children when I didnt have them with me. My sympathies to his family. What a tremendous work ethic he had to continue to minister to his community long after he could have just sat in a chair. Thank you for sharing him with us ?

My prayers and thoughts are with all of you. God bless all of you and keep you covered in his blood. May he keep all of you strong in your time of sorrow.

Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

My thoughts and prayers go out to this family. This wonder man made it a pleasure to shop at Food Lion. He had a smile and good words for everyone. He sure will be missed.

Im 36 now and I met Jimmie at 16 when I started to work at Food Lion. Jimmie was one of those people you could just be around and he would change your whole attitude with a smile or a joke. He had such a caring heart about everyone he met including myself. Over the years seeing Jimmie working and still caring about what happened from week to week with my daughters meant a lot. There are not many good hearted people these days in the world and one of the Best was just taken. Jimmie will forever be in my heart and in my families. Rest in Peace, God has gained an Angel ?

I knew Jimmy from Food Lion. I would always look for him at the checkout, he was such a nice man and will be missed.

I was the lucky one. Went to school with Jim, graduated with him and I thank the Lord that I was able to talk to him shortly before he passed away.
