Lyvonnica McMillian Green, age 44, of Freeport, Florida, passed away Tuesday, September 13, 2022.
She was born April 3, 1978, to Lyvonne and Judy McMillian in DeFuniak Springs, Florida.
Lyvonnica was the epitome of “live your life how you want to be remembered!”
She loved others no matter who they were. She would take in a homeless family, fight for those who were not able to fight for themselves, and love….she loved hard.
To know her was to love her and to be loved by her. She was not naïve by any means but sought to find and bring out the good in every person…most of the time succeeding.
A faithful member of Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church, Lyvonnica was a leader for advocacy in her community and always looking for ways to improve the lives of others.
The heart of Lyvonnica was everywhere, but at the center of her heart was her daughter, Lynee and husband, John.
Lyvonnica and John, were together for more than 25 years. In that time, they had created a life that most would envy.
They raised their beautiful daughter and supported each other through all sorts of life’s twists and turns. Lynee and Lyvonnica had their own special relationship that went beyond just mother and daughter, they were best friends.
She worked for CHELCO for 15 years. In her time at CHELCO, she was known as a person who served members, employees, and the community with a big heart.
She was also known as a wonderful friend to many. Her caring nature and selfless heart made her easy to talk to about anything. This world is a better place because she was in it. An angel on earth, she has now spread her wings.
Lyvonnica is survived by her loving husband, John Green; her daughter, Julia Lynee Green; parents, Lyvonne and Judy McMillian; three brothers, Nicholas McMillian, Nathan McMillian, and Russell McMillian and wife Haley; father-in-law, Richard Green; mother-in-law, Joyce Green; sister-in-law, Carry Green; nieces, Jordan, Madison, Payton, Layla, and Parker McMillian; and a host of extended family, friends and loved ones.
A memorial service will be held Wednesday, September 21, 2022, beginning at 1 p.m. at Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church 1015 Pleasant Ridge Road, DeFuniak Springs, Florida 32435, with Minister Phil McMillian officiating. A time of visitation will be held one hour prior to the service. Flowers are being accepted.
