Floyd Junior "Wee" Paddy, 73, of Leesville, Louisiana, passed away peacefully in his home on October 17, 2025. He was born on April 20, 1952, in Leesville, where he remained a lifelong resident.
A visitation for friends and family will be held from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 21, 2025, at Labby Memorial Funeral Home in Leesville, Louisiana. A private burial will follow at Brister Cemetery.
"Wee," as he was lovingly known by family and friends, was a jack of all trades and could fix just about anything. Whether it was plumbing, mechanical work, or anything that needed a little ingenuity, he could figure it out. Floyd worked for many years as both a butcher and a master plumber-two trades that reflected his hardworking, no-nonsense spirit. Wee enjoyed the simple pleasures of life-hunting, fishing, and spending time at the lake with his brother, Tom. He was a man who lived honestly and humbly. What you saw was what you got, and that's exactly what everyone loved about him.
Above all else, Floyd loved his family deeply. He especially enjoyed teasing and picking on his grandchildren, bringing laughter wherever he went.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Joseph Kelly Paddy and Eliza Jane Paddy; his brothers, Joseph "Buddy" Paddy, Donald Paddy, William "Bo" Paddy, Wilbur Paddy, and Tom Paddy; and his sister, Doris Harry. Survived by his sister, Betty Davis, and brother, Raymond Paddy, both of Leesville, Louisiana.
Those left to cherish his memory are his son, Steven Paddy and wife JJ, of Little Rock, Arkansas; his daughter, Stephanie Paddy and Jamie Puckett, of Magee, Mississippi; his beloved grandchildren, Reed and Raegan Paddy, of Little Rock, and Camden Puckett, of Magee. He also leaves behind a host of nieces, nephews, and extended family who will miss him dearly.
Floyd is now free of pain, resting peacefully in the arms of Jesus and breathing freely once again. We can imagine him casting a line with his brothers, laughing like old times, and sitting down to one of Granny's hot biscuits. "Daddy," "Papaw Wee Wee," "Mr. Floyd," "Wee"-no matter what name you knew him by, he will be deeply missed.
Until we see you again.
