Thomas Randall Green
February 23, 1942 – April 30, 2022
Thomas Randall “Tom” Green passed away peacefully on April 30, 2022, surrounded by his family. He was 80 years old.
He was the first born child of Garth and Lois Green. Tom was born on February 23, 1942, in Texarkana, Texas. He graduated from Henderson High School and went on to attend Texas Tech University, graduating in 1964 with an industrial engineering degree. He married Mary Ann Ross and together they raised two sons.
Tom worked for Southwestern Bell for 29 years, retiring in 1993 as the general manager of Network Operations in Arkansas. In 2001, he and Mary Ann moved to Fair Oaks Ranch, Texas, where they built their dream home.
Tom’s love of music of all kinds came from his musician father and was passed down to his sons and grandchildren. He had an encyclopedic knowledge of history, specifically World Wars I and II, as well as the Civil War. This passion was connected to his coin and stamp collections. Additionally, Tom was a huge supporter of the military and veterans.
As an avid sports fan, when he wasn’t watching the Houston Astros, Dallas Cowboys or San Antonio Spurs, he was watching his beloved alma mater, Texas Tech. He also enjoyed coaching his sons’ sports teams when they were young.
Tom is preceded in death by his parents and his favorite dog, Phoebe. He is survived by his wife of almost 58 years, Mary Ann; his sons, Rob (Kristi) Green of El Dorado, Arkansas, and Brad (Kristina) Green of Boerne, Texas; four grandchildren, Alyson, Braden, Parker and Finn; sisters Judy Sherry and Jo Ann Bledsoe; and dear friends and extended family.
The family would like to thank the exceptional staff at Kendall House at Morningside Ministries and Alamo Hospice.
A Celebration of Life will be held on May 21, 2022, at 2 p.m. at Spring Creek Methodist Church, 28970 Old Fredericksburg Road, Fair Oaks Ranch, TX 78015.
