Carl D. "Curly" Worick, 56, of Salina, passed away on Monday, August 16, 2021, at Kenwood View Health & Rehabilitation Center. He had been at Kenwood since 2011 when he had a massive stroke. Carl was born on September 4, 1964, to Richard A. & Joyce M. 'Schmitz' Worick.
Carl grew up in Beloit, KS attending elementary and high school there. He also attended Salina Tech receiving an auto body degree. Carl loved farming alongside his dad, which led to him working as a custom cutter working for a crew in western Kansas. He also worked for several bars and night clubs. At the time of his stroke in 2011 he was manager of Outlaws, a Country nightclub in Salina. Curly, as he was known, had a lot of friends through his job.
He never knew a stranger. Carl had many close relationships throughout his life, and so many had a special place in his heart. He missed his friends during those 10 years living at Kenwood. A special “Thank You” to all the nurses, CMA's and staff throughout his stay there. You became his family.
Carl never married but helped his sister, Deanna raise her son, Kegan. Carl was preceded in death by his grandparents Ben & Dorothea Schmitz, Emerson and Maxine Worick, parents Richard and Joyce Worick, Uncle Darrell Fenton, Aunt Joann Schmitz, Uncle Jim Baker.
He is survived by his sister Deanna 'Worick' Nwahiri (Nelson), nephew Kegan Worick, Uncle Larry Schmitz, Aunt Donna Baker, Aunt Janice Fenton, Aunt Bernie McCurley and her husband Rex, cousins and tons of extended family and friends.
