Biography: Daniel A. Green, 54, of Little Rock, who died January 12, will be remembered at a service at 1 p.m. Wednesday (Jan. 25) at Ruebel Funeral Home at 6313 West Markham Street in Little Rock. (Rev. Ken Shaddox of the First Baptist Church in Searcy will officiate.) Green, the son of the late Glenn A. (Bud) Green and Julia Stell Green, formerly of Little Rock and now living in Searcy, was born September 27, 1951 in Searcy, one of three brothers and a sister, and attended schools there and in Little Rock, Heber Springs and Montgomery County, Md.; he later studied electronics at an institute in Little Rock. He was a heavy equipment operator, considered a master in the back hoe, and participated in construction throughout the state, including work at the Pine Bluff Arsenal, the widening of Kanis Road in Little Rock, and the building of homes in Midland, Tex. He earlier promoted a musical rock band in California, developed and sold audio speakers and was a partner in a restaurant in downtown Little Rock; he also was a woodworker who helped build cabinets and decks in homes and bars in restaurants. A spiritual, easygoing man who ate mainly organic food and had a hearty, infectious laugh, he is remembered by family and friends as kind, loving, caring, and honest. A friend who said Green and his mother had helped him said, “I consider Dan my brother.” He was devoted to his mother and daughter, Jessica Green of Little Rock, and her son Keilan, and delivered much personal care to his mother, now 93, in her home in recent years. He was happy about re-establishing a relationship with Thresa (Tree) Scott of Hot Springs, whom he had known in high school and who described him as “a noble man” who brought her much joy and who, in his last days, acted courageously to help his daughter. (He and a friend, Stephen Craig, 50, were fatally shot in the home in the early morning; Anthony Terrell Johnson, 26, of North Little Rock, who Green’s daughter had sought protection from, was arrested and charged with two counts of capital murder; he was being held without bond.) Green liked to read and listen to the talk radio and discuss politics, government and current events; he loved all kinds of music, from Celtic (he was of Scotch-Irish descent) to hard rock to that of Bob Dylan, whom he and friends had seen perform in Little Rock recently. He taught himself to play acoustic guitar, and liked to play it and sing Eagles songs. He loved animals, had bred dogs and had dogs and a cat. Other survivors are a sister, Suzy Hartsfield of Searcy, and a brother, William Green of Little Rock. Memorials may be made to the Humane Society of Pulaski County.
