Hi, My name is Brooklynn Worth. I am currently 17 years old. I am a full-time college student and work part-time at Starbucks.

My dad, James Worth, passed away unexpectedly last week at the young age of only 42. He was a wonderful father, son, brother, and friend.

He held a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice and worked at Benjamin Edwards Bank at the time of his unfortunate death. He was taken from us all unexpectedly and too young. James loved being on his boat, fishing, and exploring the outdoors. He also had a love for movies, especially those featuring Bill Murry. He enjoyed collecting model cars from his favorite movies such as Back to the Future, Christine, Star Wars, and Smokey and the Bandit. With this, he also enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. Going out to dinners, hiking, boating, and watching movies were some of his favorite memories. Jim was a great friend and father whose key qualities were empathy, caring, and loyalty to those he loved.

With this unexpected news, my family and I are devastated and heartbroken. My grandma (Mary), Uncle (Jarett), and I want to give my dad the beautiful and loving funeral he deserves but don't currently have the financial means to afford everything he so lovingly deserves. We also look to help pay off debts and loans for my dad.
