Woody was a old friend of mine and his son Kevin is my nephew's best friend. He will be missed by our whole family but now he is in God's hands. God bless and prayers go out to the Lefler family.

To the family of Woody,

I remember Woody when he lived behind us, I was pregnant at the time with my son Christopher. I didn't know that Woody was related to me at first, but Woody and his wife at the time took me places and were good friends to me. My deepest sympathy to all his family and friends.

It will be the little things
that you will remember,
the quiet moments,
the smiles, the laughter.
And although it may seem
hard right now,
it will be the memories
of these little things
that help to push
away the pain
and bring the smiles
back again.

With Loving Memories,

Lydia Lefler and family
