Carl Lee Wortman, age 66, unexpectedly passed away surrounded by close family and friends at University Hospital in Cleveland on March 15, 2022. He was born on August 20, 1955 in Ashtabula, Ohio to the late Carl and Wilma (nee Crooks). His last hours were filled with the laughter of those he touched as they reminisced on stories of Carl's extraordinary life.
Carl is survived by his daughter, Cierra (Tyler) Brenner, and his son, Carl; grandchildren, Connor and Carynne; siblings, Joyce Finney, Beth (Shelley) Garner, Sandra (John) James, Glenn (deceased) (wife-Pam), Dale (deceased) (wife-Becky), and Ray (deceased); former wife, Kim Wortman; fiancée, Magan McAlpine; as well as many nieces and nephews.
Carl retired from working at the Cleveland docks as a Longshoreman in 2015.
He was a proud member of the Cleveland Hells Angels for 39 years. He loved riding his motorcycle and traveling throughout the country with his brothers in the club.
Carl was a devoted and caring father to Cierra and Carl Thomas. He was a fun-loving grandfather, and brother. When he wasn't helping a friend or caring for the animals he was so passionate about, he could be found perfecting his craft in the kitchen with his fiancée Magan or running the roads with his best friend/sister Joyce.
Carl brought joy to countless people and will be greatly missed by everyone that had the pleasure of meeting him.
A funeral service will be held on Saturday March 26, 2022 at 11 AM at Brickman Bros. Funeral Home, 37433 Euclid Ave. in Willoughby, where the family will receive friends on Friday from 2-8 PM.
Burial will take place at Perry Twp. Cemetery.
