Edward “Ted” Green, 90, of Sarasota Florida passed away peacefully on August 29, 2025. He was born on March 7, 1935 in Upland, Pennsylvania to the late James Edward and Roberta (Post) Green.
Ted graduated from Middletown High School in 1953 and went on to earn his Bachelors of Arts degree from Elon College in 1961. He proudly served his country in the U.S. Army.
He was honored to work in a prestigious position for the Veterans Administration as a Computer Systems Analyst in Washington, D.C. for 24 years. He then continued his career with H&R Block before retiring.
In retirement Ted enjoyed spending time at the beach, traveling, and cherishing visits with friends and family. He had a great appreciation for driving a luxury vehicle, talking politics and loved animals. In his later years he found joy in quieter pastimes, especially crossword and Sudoku puzzles and a nightly Manhattan.
He is preceded in death by his parents; brothers George and James Green; and nephew JR Green.
Ted is survived by Ed Palmer of Hendersonville, North Carolina. The family has fond memories of their visits to Delaware over the years with their beloved poodle Dolly.
He is also survived by a sister, Roberta “Robin” Pheasant Wood of Elkton Maryland.
In addition to his sister he leaves behind 1 niece: Rene’ Johnson, 6 nephews: Jay (Beth) Green, Lewis (Sandy) Green, Lawrence (Cindy) Green, Mark (Theresa) Pheasant, Rick (Melissa) Pheasant, George Edward (Vicki) Green, and William (Esther) Green, along with their children, grandchildren, and other relatives and cousins.
