Our sweet baby, Wilder Scott Moody, was born into the arms of Jesus on Wednesday, September 17, 2025, at Memorial Hospital in Savannah, Georgia. Although Wilder’s time with us was brief, he will forever be cherished and loved.

Wilder leaves behind his loving parents, Vincent and Lyanna Moody, and his three big brothers, Oliver, Paxton, and Tatum. He is also deeply loved by his grandparents: Daffney Baker, Sherry Moody, Scott Baker, and Dawn Baker; his great-grandparents, Patricia Johnson and Carl Baker; as well as several aunts, uncles, and cousins, all of whom hold him in their hearts.

Wilder was predeceased by his great-grandparents: Earl Berry, Alton Johnson, Scherril Allen, and Nancy Baker.

Though Wilder was only with us for a brief time, his memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him. We find comfort knowing that Wilder is now wrapped in the loving arms of Jesus.

The funeral service will be held at 12:00pm on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, at Kennedy Funeral Homes, Hooks Chapel. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service. The family asks all who attend, please where bright and colorful attire.

Interment will follow the service in Lake Cemetery
