Larry Worthy

Larry Webb Worthy, Jr., age 64, was a resident of Baton Rouge, LA and member of Healing Place Church. His body passed on September 15, 2021 and his soul went to join the Lord in Heaven.

Larry was a lifelong musician, singer, songwriter and guitar player in the bands Maniaxe, Kriket, Psycho Jo and accompanied Cajun fiddle player Curtis Coubello. During his life, he was honored to have played as an opening act for bands such as Rare Earth, Edgar & Johnny Winter, Rick Derringer, Pat Travers, Triumph, Elvin Bishop, Jefferson Starship, Head East, Dixie Chicks, Talking Heads, and Delbert McClinton. He had a charismatic stage presence and knew how to captivate an audience. He was truly an entertainer.

Larry, who was voted most witty in high school, was known for his unique sense of humor. Throughout his life, his charming personality always made others laugh and smile. He was a devoted son and helped in caring for his mother and brother. There was a selflessness about him, and he would often help others in need, even if that meant giving the last dollar in his pocket. Larry truly enjoyed life, his family, and his wonderful friends.
