My heart is full of prayers for all the family of Murray Green he left such a wonderful legacy behind he will be dearly missed by all people who knew him or sit in his barber chair or went with there daddy like me n listen to his stories we are the better for having had the opportunity to share life on earth with him! I grew up across the back field from his answer jump the fence run n you were there rode the school bus with some of the kids! Attended church n worshipped with him. Was nice to hear the back door at church open n Murray n Estelle come in he would look my way n give me the thumbs up sign n smile if I missed service for some reason he would ask about me n let them know he liked my music n songs! He after church many times would tell how him n Delilah bought there place from my mother's family n share memories of things last! A very wise n funny man who always had a twinkle in his eye! John, Kenneth, Rosie, Ann, James, Deanna and Timothy as you grief remember all the fun times of a wonderful dad who has been reunited with his wife little boy n family but most of all the Lord Jesus Christ whom he believed in n we will see him again some sweet day! Love you all!!

R.I.P. Murray. Murray was one of a kind for sure. I always got a kick out of his stories from when I was a kid. It was always an event to get a haircut and I started going there when he was with Mr Moore and Corley and haircuts were $.25. You will always be remembered!!!

Murray Green was one of a kind. If he told you it was going to snow on a July day in Arkansas, you better get your snow boots on because it was going to snow. His word was his bond.

I have known Murray all my life. He was my barber and my friend.

There are a multitude of thoughts that go through my mind as I think of Murray. All good, and most have a lot of laughter.

Murray was a mentor to me. Taught me a lot about life as I got my haircut at his shop.

My world is a better place because of Murray Green.

Tears are in my eyes as I write this, but there is a smile heart as I think of him.

God bless.
