Bernie, you have added so many new sounds and tones which nurtured new grooves as they sprung to life. The planet is a better place because of you. I hope your love & funkicity pour over all the earth to create a new garden of Eden. Peace to you.

Cousin Bernie, Your light continues to shine in all that you have contributed throughout the years as family, friend, musician extraordinaire and phenomenal artist. You are appreciated for the life lessons you taught, for the sweet relationship of family, for being yourself in all things and despite the hard blows of the business. Your perseverance and determination is a mere demonstration of fortitude and a yearning of selflessness instilled in our DNA. Aunt Cora is joined by the prodigy and your fans will eternally be illuminated with by all you have given. Rest sweetly in paradise for you have been made whole and complete in God's home. The struggle is over. ❤️ We love you eternally. On behalf of the Knight, Washington and Carter families

Thank you, Bernie, for the wonderful memories of seeing you play live! My most favorite memory was seeing Woo Warriors at the Lion's Den in Greenwich Village. I was dancing right next to you, and you kept smiling and winking at me. This is a pic of us in MN when you played at Harmony Park

There aren't sufficient words. Sincerest condolences to the family, and heartfelt thanks for all the times Dr. Worrell's spirit and music helped me through the rough patches. And those are not sufficient words.
