James “Jimmy” Scott Green, age 72, of Columbus, Ohio passed away on the 6th of August 2026, in the loving care of his family, friends, and the staff/hospice nurses at Monterey Care Center in Grove City, OH. In May 2026, Jimmy was diagnosed with metastatic lung cancer which developed into terminal brain cancer.

Jimmy graduated from Franklin Heights High School in 1972 and served overseas in the USAF (Jan 1973–Mar 1976) where he served as a Weapons Mechanic and received an honorable discharge. Jimmy was employed for 5 years at DCSC, Columbus, OH immediately following his tour of duty with the USAF. Jimmy was very proud to have served his country and remained patriotic to the very end of his life. He may have lived an unusual lifestyle, but all he ever wanted and talked about was “Peace and Love.”

Jimmy was married to Arlene (Fields) Green of Maine and they were blessed with one beautiful daughter, April Lynn Green. Jimmy was also blessed with an adorable son, Kristopher James Green, with mother Ms. Chris Shapley of Nevada. Jimmy later married Roberta (Johnson) Green of Ohio and they were also blessed with two beautiful daughters, Rebecca Jane Green and Jennifer Renee Green. Jimmy later became and remained very close friends with Janis Novotni. We are very thankful for her support, guidance and love for Jimmy.

Jimmy is survived by his two daughters Rebecca and Jennifer Green of Ohio, his son Kristopher Green of Arizona, and his two sisters, Ivy Murphy-Green (Mike) of Ostrander, OH and Krista R. (Green) and Tim Nelson of Columbus, OH.

Jimmy is preceded in death by his mother and father William K. and Anna M. Green of Columbus, OH; his sister Rhea A. Green (Gene) Pack of South Solon, OH; his brother William H. Green of Columbus, OH and his eldest daughter April L. Green of Glendale, AZ.
