Carolyn Underwood Worley
Mrs. Carolyn Underwood Worley, 91, of Greenfield, Tennessee, passed away Monday, November 9, 2026, at her home in Greenfield.
Born on May 18, 1935, in Hayward, Missouri, Carolyn was the daughter of the late Ansel Underwood and Elsie Smith Underwood. She was also preceded in death by her husband, John Worley; and by three brothers, Don Underwood, Ronnie Underwood, and Phil Underwood.
Carolyn was united in marriage to John Worley on June 26, 1954, in Senatobia, Mississippi, in a double wedding ceremony alongside Billy and Maxine Goodman. Carolyn and John shared 65 wonderful years together before his passing in January 2020.
She enjoyed the simple pleasures of life, especially starting her day with a cup of coffee and spending time tending to her flowers and garden. Her love for family and home was evident in everything she did, and she leaves behind many cherished memories for those who knew and loved her.
