narrative of the life of Shurron Bernard Green. Having been born on December 23, 1961 in

Lexington, Mississippi, Shurron was raised by his grandmother, Annie Simmons in Mississippi

Rhoda with whom they collectively have three children from their previous marriages as well as

two grandchildren.

Shurron Bernard graduated from Lexington Attendance Center in May 1979 and continued to

grow in Mississippi during the time of Jim Crow Law. He studied in a High School where the

White High carried the distinction. However, he developed passion in sports and was mostly

involved in playing Basketball, Baseball, Track, as well as playing the Alto and the Baritone
