Joel Green Sr. was born on February 14th, 1961 in Jonesville, LA; at home with an assistance of a midwife, which was Mama Zoo. He was born to the union of Henrietta (Williams) Green and Walter Green Sr.
Joel moved to Michigan at the age of 7 and attended Bloomingdale Schools. Joel worked at Cornerstore, Painters Collaborative, and as a minister at second Baptist Church in South Haven, MI. His friends and family knew him as “Joe”, Joe Joe or to some Master Jody. Joel loved fishing with his son Joel Jr. and Lonnie and Leroy. He loved God and he loved to eat. He would show up with a jug of milk awaiting his favorite dessert, tea cakes, to come out of the oven.
