Kevin Patrick Woodward, 22, of Cunningham, TN passed away on September 3, 2024. He was born in Oak Ridge, TN (GO VOLS!) to Atisha and Lee Woodward on December 17, 2001. Kevin was a loving father, son, and brother. He enjoyed spending time with family and friends, fishing, and working on anything with wheels and an engine. Kevin is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Tallie Holt Jr. and Nuan Holt, and his paternal great grandparents, Don Bechtold and Ned Woodward.

He is survived by his children, Memphis and Adaline Woodward, his parents, Atisha and Lee Woodward, his older sister, Dakota (Adiel) Yanez, his niece and nephew, Nayeli and Yahir Yanez, grandparents, Janet and Steve Woodward, great grandparents, Shirley Woodward and Helen Bechtold, and aunts, uncles, and cousins who all loved him very much. He is also survived by the mother of his children, Mackenzie Guess.

We would like to extend a very special thanks to all of Kevin’s childhood friends, their families, his car and motorcycle club friends, Keri Lehman & Mike Foulks, Terri & Don Bradford, and all of the coworkers that have sat with Kevin and shared tears, wisdom, and love.

The family will host a Celebration of Life on September 22, 2024 from 2:00-6:00 PM at 2300 State Hwy 48, Clarksville, TN 37040. We ask that those who come to celebrate be respectful to Kevin’s memory and mindful of his family during this time.
