Leroy Worsham

My Leroy God joined us together on March 17, 1962 and temporarily separated us on August 31, 2023. Over these 61 years we experienced a journey through many valleys but regained strength from the mountaintop joys our Lord brought us to. We were blessed with four daughters, a son, grandson, and a great-granddaughter. Leroy was a hard worker - a great provider. We never experienced riches this world could bring, but when we added it all up, we were as rich as we would be this side of Heaven. O how I miss my Leroy, and I realize right now the journey looks hard - but my God is sufficient and the prayers of my family, church family and friends will see me thru. I have no doubt for I sense His faithfulness to keep promises made long ago for myself and my family - this is all my Lord's plan and I wouldn't change it for anything - God's been good, is good, for always. A loving husband and father, Mr. Worsham was preceded in death by his parents, Bennie and Effie Worsham; brother, Bud Worsham and wife Janelle; sister; Lena Mae Fuller and husband Halley; nephews, Cole Fuller, Mac Fuller; mother-in-law, Iva Dee Smith and husband, Luther, and brother-in-law, L.W. (Dubb). Those left to cherish his memories include his loving wife of 61 years, Peggy Worsham; daughters, Rhonda Dawes, Darla Kay Worsham and friend Mikal Thomas, Kristi Barrickman and wife Wendy; children, Devin Worsham, Nicole Swearingen and husband Jordan; grandchildren, Dale Dawes and Hinsley Worsham; sister, Darlene Williams as well as numerous nieces and nephews. A Celebration of the Life of Leroy Worsham will be held at 11 AM Tuesday, September 5, 2023 at Woodland Hills Baptist Church, 2105 East Loop 281 in Longview with Bro. Charles Hunt officiating. The family will receive friends for a time of visitation and viewing beginning at 10 AM prior to the service. Mr. Worsham was born on August 30, 1939 and passed away early Thursday morning August 31, 2023 in a Longview hospital. Services have been entrusted to the Horn Family at Horn-Nail-Haggard Funeral Home. In Lieu of flowers, the family has requested donations be made to the Perkins Partnership Ministry. http://ppmhasit.org/
