Previous date that a specific Value appears

Hello,

 

I have a set of data where a certain value appears multiple times.  I want to know the date that the previous value appeared to the current date.  Example below of data.

Red8/4/2021
Blue5/1/2021
Blue4/2/2021
Green4/1/2021

Example of what I need for results:
