Howard “Bucky” Gray Wood, Jr.
Bucky proudly served his country in the U.S. Army on the front lines of Korea and continued his commitment to others in serving his community as a Detective Sergeant for over 25 years.
May his dedication continue to inspire all those who loved and admired him.
To ensure your generosity and support are acknowledged, Bucky’s family has requested that memorial contributions be made through IN MEMORY OF to the following
The mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of its founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family's ability to pay.
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs uses monetary donations to support inpatients, outpatients, homeless Veterans, caregivers of Veterans, and others being treated in VA facilities. Programs also include transportation services, special events, residential care units, or any of the other unique services VA offers.
The Wood family has asked that if you would like to remember Bucky in your own special way, a memorial donation to your favorite animal rescue program or veterans organization would be a living tribute to his memory.
