William Henry Green, age 83 of Louisville, KY, passed away on September 25,2025. He was born on July 15, 1942 in Munfordville, KY. After graduating high school in 1960, he joined the Army. He graduated from the 101st Airborne Division Jump School at Fort Campbell, KY. After receiving his paratrooper wings, he was assigned to special services where he served many special assignments. He was a quiet, humble man but was very proud of his military service and that was the one thing he would talk about. Since his discharge in 1966, he worked for several prestigious companies such as Dow Corning, General Electric, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, and eventually retired at the age of 75 form Humana as an IT expert. As a young man he was an avid runner. But as he got older, he had to slow down to walking and other exercises to stay fit. Sadly, health issues slowed him down so he was unable to make his walks around the reservoir.
He was the beloved son of the late James S. Green and the late Mary Kathleen Green.
He is preceded in death by his special friend, Joy Cabbage Carden; four sisters,Dorothy Mae Hodges, Bettye Queen Barlow, Doris Jean Reed and Connie Frances Jordan; three brothers, James Allen Green, Glenn Greene and Michael Green.
He is survived by one son, William Henry Green, Jr.; two sisters, Joyce Masden of Louisville, KY, and Martha Green of Cincinati, OH; one brother, Carl C. Greene (Mary) of Cave City, KY; sister-in-law, Lula Green of Louisville, KY; several nieces, nephews and other extended family also survive.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, October 4, 2025, from 10:00 AM- 12:00PM CT at Brooks Funeral Home. Funeral services will be held at 12:00 PM CT on Saturday, October 4, 2025 at Brooks Funeral Home with (Eulogist) Rev. David Greene and (Master of Ceremonies) Rev. Stanford Dixon officiating.
