Clifford DeWayne Wood, 68, passed away at home in Fort Worth on October 2, 2025. He was born on September 21, 1957, in Dallas County to the late William Ray and Shirley Ann (Harris) Wood, who preceded him in death along with his brother, Bruce Wood, and his beloved feline companion, Pumbaa.

Clifford was raised in Oak Cliff and proudly served his country in the U.S. Navy aboard the USS Waddell. After his honorable service, he furthered his education by earning an Associate Degree from Northlake Community College. Clifford dedicated several years of his career to Bank of America, where he made lasting contributions.

He cherished the time spent with his family, embarking on many memorable vacations alongside his faithful canine companion, Lance. A devoted sports fan, Clifford enthusiastically supported his favorite teams: the Dallas Cowboys, the Texas Rangers, and the Dallas Mavericks.

Clifford is remembered by wife, Melinda (Hamilton) Wood; daughter, Chelsea Wood; brother, Michael Wood and wife, Grace; twin sister, Sylvia Rose and husband, Mike; sister, Marilyn Wood; brother, Darren Wood; as well as extended family and friends who will continue to honor his memory.

His presence will be deeply missed, and his spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
