  1. Our Prayers are with the family. May the Lord keep each one under his wing. May the Lord help ease your pain

  2. I am thankful for the time that my mom & dad (dale and joyce), my husband (kent), and I were able to spend with Memaw just before Christmas. We sat at the kitchen table and wrote down some of her favorite recipes. She said when I came back to visit that we could write down some more. I am sorry we did not get the chance. Missing Memaw already.

  10. To All of Mrs. Worley’s family memebers:

    We would like to say that we are sorry for the loss of a great woman that loved everyone she came to know. We live right across the street from The Worley’s. We have lived across from Lucille and Glenn for many years. We would always see Lucille out at her birdfeeders. My son (who is 4 yrs old) would always call her Lady Worley or just friend. She would just laugh and wave at him and he would be happy that he saw her. We will miss her greatly and dearly. Yet, we know that she is looking over us and is still looking and taking care of her birds.

    Truly,

    The Randall’s
    (at 11 Shannon Dr)

  11. Mamaw Cille I loved you very much and will miss you. I know Jesus will take care of you and that you will be watching over me.

    I love you

Even though she won’t be there in body we know she will be there watching over us. She was a great lady and loved everyone that would love her back. We will miss you. We will take care of Mr. Worley for you. We love you
    Larry and Hope Dotson

    Dianne and I are so sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Worley. We pray that God will give you his peace and comfort in your time of sorrow.

    Our love and prayers,

    Dianne and Jerry

  14. Lucille was such a dear, fine, sweet person. I feel so blessed to have been her neighbor and her friend. Her home and heart were always open to me. I knew Lucille less than three years, but I loved her and I know she loved me too.

    She and Glenn epitomized the truest love story you could ever hope to see. She had a heart big enough to encompass her extended family and her ‘adopted’ family. Lucille’s religious convictions inspired me. I miss her so much.
