Otis James Woods, Jr. affectionately known as "Junebug", was born on June

13, 1961 to the late Willie Mae (Robertson) Woods and Otis James Woods, Sr.

He entered the world as a premature baby, so tiny that his family had to carry

him on a pillow.

He graduated from Daingerfield High School class of 1979. In 1980, Junebug

proudly joined the United States Army, receiving a honorable discharge. During

his life he was affiliated with Shady Grove Baptist Church in Cason, Texas and

later with New Home Baptist Church, 4509 Maple Street in Bonham, TX, Pastor

Gene Reddick.

Junebug was a strong-willed man with a big heart. He loved to make people

laugh, attend Church, lend a helping hand, visit the Elderly and sick whenever he

could. He worked hard throughout his life. During his lifetime he spent many

years hauling hay, cutting wood and working at Pilgrims Pride in Mt. Pleasant,

Texas.

Though Junebug never married or had any children of his own, he poured his

love and care into his nieces and nephews; treating them as if they were his

own. He also cherished the bond he shared with his many cousins. He was

preceded in death by his parents; his brothers, Edward Duncan, Jr.(Kilroy) and

Forrest Woods (Crack Shot); his sisters, Debra Ector and Lillie (Nay) Woods-

Morrow; his nephew Keelyn Lee; and his niece Shanndolyn Morrow.

He leaves to cherish his memory: his brother Jerry Woods; his sisters, Cheryl

Lee, Marshalene McMillian, and Judie Williams. He also leaves behind a host of

nieces, nephews, cousins, relatives, his best friend Kevin Spraglin and many

close friends.

Even as his health declined, Junebug never stopped asking about his loved ones.

His presence, laughter, dedication to hard work, care for others, and most of all,

his love for God will remain in our hearts forever.
