A funeral service was held October 20, 2025, at St. Michael Catholic Church. Burial was at the Green Family Cemetery, rural St. Michael. Warren “Jimmy” Green was born on February 26, 1937, to Warren L. and Agnes (Langer) Greene in Fort Totten, ND. He grew up on “East End” of the Spirit Lake Reservation, alongside his cousins, sharing a deep bond of hunting and exploring the outdoors. Jimmy attended school at the Little Flower School in St. Michael and enlisted in the Army in 1956. He was a proud Korean War Conflict veteran, who served his country with honor and dedication. His strong sense of duty and quiet strength were qualities he carried throughout his life. After his military service, Jimmy worked at the loading docks in Chicago but his passion in life was farming alongside his brother/cousin, Clarence Greene. Jimmy worked as a police officer, road construction and provided security for many years. A natural teacher at heart, he loved teaching others about gardening. He passed along his knowledge of growing and caring for the land. Many in the community will remember him for his gardening and he insisted on a huge garden and not a plot. Jimmy enjoyed watching NASCAR and the thrill of the race while cheering on his favorite drivers. He also enjoyed watching football and baseball. He is survived by his children, Leslie, James, Raymond, Eddie, Lynn, Aaron and Fabian Green and adopted daughter, Bonnie Jerome; numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Warren and Agnes; brothers, Orrin, Larry and Frank Greene; and sister, Viola.
