Jonathan L. Green
Jonathan has been part of the Green Funeral Home family since birth. As Sam’s younger son, Jonathan has the unique perspective of growing up with the funeral business as part of his everyday life. He has a greater understanding and awareness of the demands this type of work places on the personal life of its directors and the adjustments their children must make in their lives. Jonathan knew that dad was not always going to be there for those special moments at school because another family needed him. He was able to sense when a death was more troubling to his father and would console him in his own way to help ease his mind. Through this awareness, Jonathan has developed the skill to be able to adapt to any situation and has a tremendous gift to listen to people and offer comforting words. Jonathan has worked along side Sam, Wayne and Brian during college breaks, over the summers and since graduating college in 2009. He now has had the opportunity to experience the funeral home business from another perspective and has found many rewarding aspects of the profession along with its difficulties. Jonathan has served as an assistant to the funeral home staff and has come to be a welcoming smile to those in mourning and for many attending the funeral. Outside of the funeral home, Jonathan can be found working out at the gym and truly enjoys playing his guitar or bass guitar to relax. He has a passion for cars and hopes to one day find an old muscle car to restore with his dad.
Jonathan will be leaving in the fall to attend graduate school at Kutztown University in Pennsylvania to obtain his MSW. Ultimately Jonathan wishes to continue his education and become certified as a sex therapist. He has demonstrated to everyone what a valuable asset he is to Green Funeral Home. We wish him luck as he pursues his dream.
