Janell Green, 56, of Farmdale, Ohio, died at her home on January 17, 2016. Born July 2, 1959, in Chardon, she enjoyed gardening, baking, cooking and caring for chickens, rabbits and honey bees. She had lived in Newbury for many years before moving to Farmdale 16 years before her death.

Ricky Green was arrested and later pleaded guilty to murder. At sentencing the judge imposed a term of 18 years to life. Family testimony at the hearing described strained and painful dynamics, and Janell’s brother Craig Borsi criticized Ricky and said the family was left financially harmed.

Janell is remembered by family as kind and loyal. If anyone knew Janell, her routines or the circumstances that led to January 17, 2016, please share what was known.
