April 26, 1953 - May 15, 2021

Lafayette - A Memorial Service will be held on Friday, June 4, 2021 at 1:00 PM at Cypress Funeral Home in Maurice for William McKay Wood, Jr., 68, who passed away on Saturday, May 15, 2021 in Lafayette. Visitation will be observed at Cypress Funeral Home on June 4, 2021 from 10:00 am until the time of the service. Pastor Kenneth Burke will officiate the service. William was born on April 26, 1953 in Natchez, Mississippi and was a long-time resident of Lafayette Parish.

They moved to Brandon, Mississippi where he began his career in law enforcement. He retired from the New Iberia Police Department after 31 years of dedicated service. In his spare time, he enjoyed cooking, gardening, and decorating for the holidays. More than anything William loved spending time with his children and grandchildren. He will be remembered as a loving husband, father and grandfather who was dedicated not only to his family, but also to his community. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him. William is survived by his loving wife of 47 years, Kathy Wood; his children, Jeremy Wood; Rebecca Qualls (Justin), and Victoria Wood; his grandchildren, Owsley Wood, Samantha Qualls, and Mac Qualls; along with his siblings, Emma Ray Hebert (Darrell) and Gene Wood (Paula).
