Sara Worley Obituary


On Friday, January 23, 2026, SARA L. (PLANTS) WORLEY passed away in Murrells Inlet, SC, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, hard work, and a generous spirit. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
Born in Charleston, West Virginia on May 7, 1958, Sara was the daughter of the late Jenny Pitsonberger (James) and the late George Plants II. Throughout her life, she exemplified dedication and compassion in all she did. She worked for many years at Drunken Jacks Seafood Restaurant, where she formed lasting friendships. She later spent many dedicated years working as a sales associate at Lowe's.
Sara had a deep love for music, especially country artists and songwriters, and she found joy in the simple peace of long walks along the beach. In her younger years, she cherished her time working with horses, nurturing her lifelong bond with animals and the outdoors. She also enjoyed snow skiing, traveling, and exploring the world whenever she could. Her appreciation for nature and adventure remained constant throughout her life.
Sara is survived by her brother, Jeffrey Plants, of Collierville, TN, and his son, George Plants III; and by her sister, Rebecca Nelson (Allen), of Hernando, MS, and her son, Sean Hart. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who were fortunate enough to know her.

Dear Sarah, I am so sorry you never were able to make that west coast visit we talked about. I do treasure your texts around holidays and 'natural disasters' where we would check in with each other. And the visits we connected during any trip close to South Carolina. And so glad you took the time to see my mother before her passing. RIP cousin. You are in my heart.

I worked with Sara at Lowe's. I didn't know her for a long time but was always happy to be working with her. She was incredibly hard working, helpful, and friendly. I hope she is at peace and that her loved ones are comforted by the years they had together. May her memory be a blessing.
