George Allison Worden Jr., III, age 63, of Lewisburg, TN passed away April 30. 

George was born May 18, 1962 to George Allison Worden and Jeanette Robertson Worden.

George grew up trapping, fishing, hunting, camping and living a country life. He loved trains, tractors, and all things with a motor. As a kid, he had a bounty of hot wheels and tonka trucks but his passion for building things began when he received an Erector Set for Christmas.

George graduated from Liberty Central School in Liberty, NY in 1981 and headed to Nashville Auto-Diesel College where he fell in love with Tennessee. With his knowledge of mechanics, he became a tour bus driver for many years, traveling nationally and internationally, while working for dozens of performers ranging from Lynyrd Skynyrd, Alabama, Whitney Houston, Travis Tritt, and Garth Brooks.

George was a past member of the White Sulphur Springs Volunteer Fire Company.

In addition to his parents, George is survived by his wife of 18 years, Donna Worden of Lewisburg, TN; a son, George A Worden IV, stepchildren, Wendy Cawthron of Chapel Hill, TN, Tammy Cawthron of Tullahoma, TN, Richard Cawthron of Shelbyville, TN; 3 grandchildren, Destiny Williams, Addyson Williams, and Brayden Williams; a great-grandchild, Zaiden Williams; sisters, Deborah Worden of Equinunk, PA and Bette Jean Gettel of Bethel, NY. 

Deborah Worden would especially like to thank Richard Cawthron, and his girlfriend Beth, for helping to provide such wonderful care for George during the last year.
