Alfred Lee Worbington, 85, of Greenville, formerly of Glen Allan, passed away peacefully Thursday, July 9, 2020 at The Pinnacle of Greenville.

Al was born June 6, 1935 to John and Ida Bell Johnson Worbington of Shaw, Mississippi. He was preceded in death by his parents; wife Falice Briggs Worbington; brother, John R. Worbington, Jr.; sisters, Helen Harris and Lula Bell McMahon; sons, Ken Worbington and Stann Clifton; and grandson, Wade Worbington.

Alfred Lee was a U.S. Army Veteran and loved his country. In his earlier years, he operated a donut business and worked in several tire stores. Later he managed Western Sizzlin Restaurants in Natchez, Mississippi and in Melbourne, Florida. Al then owned and operated the Western Sizzlin in Clarksdale. He enjoyed being in the Lion's Club there, and the meetings were held in the restaurant. Al, along with his wife, Falice, gave back to the community annually by providing meals at the restaurant with The Soup Kitchen, to feed many residents of Clarksdale. The Chamber of Commerce awarded him the Citizen of The Year one year for this cause. Al also loved volunteering at the Arms of Mercy in Greenville and coaching baseball.

He retired to beautiful Lake Washington where he and Falice were faithful members of the Lake Washington First Baptist Church in Glen Allan. Al loved the Lord and the wonderful people of the church and community.

Al is survived by his sons, Gary P.
