Troy Worrell Obituary, – On Tuesday, November 28, 2023, the world bid farewell to a vibrant soul, Troy Allen Worrell, who passed away at the age of 53 at Duke University Hospital. Born in Durham, Troy was the son of the late James Allen Worrell Jr., and he leaves behind a legacy of joy, adventure, and a deep love for life.
Troy’s passion for life was evident in his love for cooking and his adventurous spirit that took him to various corners of the world. A spontaneous soul, he embraced the beauty of the oceans, lakes, and engaged in any water sport that crossed his path. The waves and the open waters held a special place in his heart, mirroring the boundless enthusiasm with which he approached life.
One constant companion in Troy’s life was his beloved dog, “Lucky,” who shared in his owner’s zest for life and exploration. Together, they created cherished memories that will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew Troy.
Survived by his loving wife, Leslie Worrell, his mother, Barbara (Phil) McCarson, and his children, Bryson Troy Worrell and Amber Worrell, Troy’s passing leaves a void that words can hardly express. His brothers, Christopher Allen Worrell and Matthew Allen Worrell, share in the grief, and his grandchildren—Juniper Sandy, Ethyn Sandy, and Emeryl Sandy—inherit the legacy of a grandfather who celebrated life to the fullest.
A memorial service in honor of Troy Allen Worrell will be held at 1:00 pm on Friday, December 1st, at Clements Funeral Chapel: 1105 Broad St., Durham, NC 27705. The family will welcome visitors between 12:00 pm and 1:00 pm, providing an opportunity for friends and loved ones to pay their respects.
For those who wish to commemorate Troy’s life, the option to plant a beautiful memorial tree in his memory is available through the Tree Store, symbolizing growth, resilience, and the enduring spirit of a man who lived life with unmatched passion and spontaneity. Troy will be remembered not for his departure but for the indelible mark he left on the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing him.
