On Friday, September 16, 2022, in the late morning God in his infinite wisdom walked around his garden of love and selected for his son Worth Brown Person the son of Everline Person and Worth "Eddie" Person to come back home and live his eternity with him.
Worth affectionately known as Uncle June or P-Funkk was born on May 29, 1953, in Columbus, Georgia. He completed high school at Trenton Central High and then enlisted into the United States Navy where he proudly served for 20 years as a MS or Culinary Specialist and retired with Honorable Discharge.
He is predeceased by his mother Everline Person, brother Ben "Tick" Person, sisters Lina "Sweetie" Abrams, Chemise "Meat" Person, Gwendolyn "Susie" Church.
He is survived by his children Adrienne Person (Virginia), Joshua Person (New York "grandchildren: Ahliel, Ayla and Jace"), Jasmine Jones (Virginia), and Meyah Green (New Jersey). His sisters Mylinda Richmond and Yvonne Person and brother Purnell Person. And his father Worth "Eddie" Person. He continues to leave behind to help cherish his memory a host of nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews and great great nieces/nephews. His children would like to especially thank the following people for the love and care that they gave to him on an almost daily basis in his final years: Ferrell, Rashena Church, Joann Brooks, Yvonne Person.
Worth will be most remembered by his loved ones for his ever so funny and crazy stories. He was loved by all that he came across and although could be tough on people at times they all knew it was because he loved them beyond measure. His presence in the community and within his family will be greatly missed. As difficult a time as this maybe we all know that Worth will live in our hearts and spirits for the rest of our lives. He would not want us to be sad but know that he is in a better place now and comfortable. The best way to continue to keep his name and spirit alive is to live life the way that he would want us all to and to remember the love and laughter he filled so many people with.
Funeral service will be 11am Tuesday, September 27, 2022 at Hughes Funeral Home, 324 Bellevue Ave., Trenton, NJ 08618. Calling hour will be 10am until the time of service. Interment will be 9:30am Wednesday, September 28, 2022 at Washington Crossing National Cemetery, Newtown, PA.
