Steve you were and always will be a great brother, you gave me my first shotgun, first pair of cowboy boot and my first shot of whiskey.There have been many pairs of boots, shotguns and shots of whiskey. but I will always remember the first one were from you. And my very best memory of you would have to be setting around the camp fire with you and Zif down in Pond river bottoms during deer camp listening to the jokes and stories you would tell. you always made laugh and you were always there for me. Love ya Brother. If there is a porch in Heaven, I know where to find you,.

Steve was a very very good friend of my family. We lived at 608 North 2nd Street in Central City, KY. Steve was always coming over to shoot the bull with my mom (Wilma Presley) and my dad (James "Sonny" Presley). My dad and him were best drinking buddies. Steve and my dad (Yellow Stone was my dad's CB handle) drove coal trucks together back in the mid 70's. Jimmy Wood lived a couple houses down from us and eventually owned the corner store (Handy Corner), and I believe it was another wood lived a couple of houses to the east of us (Jerry or Larry maybe?). Anyway the close proximity of the woods family and us led to Steve and my family becoming friends. I knew Steve when he was a teenager and into his early twenties. I was 7 years younger than him. He was just the life of the party. Always laughing so hard that he could hardly get his stories out. He kept us laughing with his stories about zif etc. At the time I knew him he was dating or married to a Pointer lady. I think her name was Angie(?). I was best friends with his nephew Troy Wood. We lived two houses to the east of his brother Jimmy Wood's corner store. My dad operated the Gulf Gas station around the same time. Steve was just a hoot to be around. I will miss him. One memory I have of was him and his friends had been fishing and caught a great big snapping turtle. My brother and I (we were about 8 to 9 years old) were scared of it because it was mean. It would violently lunge and snap on to sticks and stuff poked in its face by Steve. Any way they finally killed the turtle to make turtle soup out of it. Well they had a grand time terrorizing my brothers and I by throwing the turtle's feet at us and laughing their butts off while we ran for cover.. It was typical country boy fun and harmless. I also remember his 1970 Green Chevy 4X4 truck that he once tried to pull a tractor trailer that had broke down on the highway in front of my dad's Gulf gas station with. Yes that was unsuccessful, but he tried hard to help that trucker. I have fond memories also of Steve in the winter snow, when he would hook up a car hood to that old truck, and pull all us kids on it down the haul roads at the Peabody Mines. Great memories. Well Steve it was great knowing you, and I hope to see you again some day. To his wife, family, and friends you have my sincere condolences. Take care, Jason Spence.

You will forever be in our heart and our fondest memories.....

Seems like it was only a few years ago when we went with Daddy to the hospital to pick up Mama and newborn baby Stevie. When Mama asked me what I thought when I looked at you, I said I like him and I think he's cute, but I wanted a little white baby brother, not a red one. I got over that pretty quick, though when Mama let me hold you and rock you in my little red wooden rocking chair. I thought we were really something! I love you and miss you, Stevie. Your sister, Grent (Jendra)

I will miss you Woody...we had some mighty fine times. Rest, my Buddy.

Steve, you were one of the best good ole cowboy friends to me. We didnt see each other everyday, but when we did, it was how have you been doing wood eye, how are you Jeffro. you will be greatly missed. Ill see you on the other side brother.

The Wood and Sharp family go back a lot of years together. Imet Steve when he was a kid. I worked with his sister. There are a lot of very good memories through the years. Steve was my favorite ex-brother-in-law. I am truly sorry for your loss Shelia and Jacob.

My husband was friends with Steve would cook at the river together ( Fred Carter) was his name. He will be missed. Sorry for the loss of a good person.

So sad to hear of Woody's passing...I will always have a special place in my heart for having the privilege of meeting him and Shelia here in Pickwick. Prayers of comfort for the family and friends. God Speed Woody!
