Edward Graham Green, M.D.

Dr. Green, affectionately known as Ed, was born in Nashville, Tennessee on March 16, 1938. He was the only child of Harry and Evoline Green. After living in various cities, his family moved to Charlotte where he graduated from Myers Park High School, class of 1956.

He received his undergraduate degree in History from Duke University in 1960 and his medical degree from the University of Tennessee in 1963.

After serving in the Air Force and completing a pediatrics residency at Children's Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska, Ed returned to Charlotte where he practiced pediatrics until his retirement in 1999.

In 1963, Ed married Gail Polk, who survives him. Also surviving are their three children: Stuart (Tamar) Green of East Brunswick, NJ, David (Holly) Green of Dunwoody, GA, Sarah (Everett) Wohlbruck of Hickory, NC. In addition, his twelve grandchildren will always miss their amazing grandfather: Benjamin Green, Jordan Green, Dina and Simcha Himmel, Noah Green, Yael Green, Hannah Green, Jake Green, Maryn Larsen, Andrew Larsen, Clair Wohlbruck, and Buck Wohlbruck.

Ed was also close to sisters and brothers-in-law Ellen Polk Fligel and Stuart Fligel, and Larry and Audrey Polk.

He was a dedicated and compassionate physician who will always be remembered for his brilliant mind and his many interests and hobbies - military history, photography, cooking, cars, dogs and his beloved Duke Blue Devils, to name a few.
