Harold Green Obituary

Harold Norman Green of Rush City, Minnesota, passed away peacefully at The Estates at Rush City on March 2, 2026.

Harold, or "Norm" as he was affectionately called, was born on July 29, 1938, in Rome, Georgia, to Harold and Clara Cooper Green. He attended Armuchee High School and spent two years in the Navy, later settling in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, where he met and married Barbara Webster. The pair married in June 1966 and had one son, James E. Green. Harold worked at Sears as a maintenance technician for more than 35 years and dedicated much of his life to the Boy Scouts, spending nearly 40 years as a scoutmaster for Pawtucket Troop 1. After Barbara's tragic passing in March 2004, Harold briefly stayed in Pawtucket. He later met and married Susan Dupre. The couple returned to Rome, where Harold was a devout member of Pleasant Valley North Baptist Church. He continued his work with the Boy Scouts during that time and spent as much time as possible with the wonderful people of his hometown. Norm and Susan moved to Minnesota in 2022 to live out Norm's final years. His loss is felt deeply by those who love him, though they are comforted by the knowledge that he is now with his Lord and Father in Heaven. Harold is survived by his beloved son, Capt. James E. Green; his wife, Susan Green, and her son, Christopher Dupre; as well as several dear nieces and nephews. A remembrance service was held on Sunday, March 8, 2026. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the Pleasant Valley North Baptist Church, as would say the voice of Harold. Arrangements were under the direction and care of Grandstrand Funeral Home and Cremation Service in North Branch, Minnesota. www.grandstrandfh.com

There are a small handful of people who leave a real mark on your life. Norm Green has always been on my short list. I joined the Scouts in the late 60s which led to me becoming an adult leader in my early 30s. His example was the reason I returned to Troop 1. Mentor, teacher, preacher, confidant. His mark was felt by literally hundreds. I imagine him hiking onward and upward to meet his maker.
