Body

No services for Harold Lonzo Wood, 91, are planned at this time.

Mr. Wood retired from life Sunday, June 27, 2021.  

Born May 27, 1930, he was the son of the late Lester Paul and Allie Burroughs Wood of Commerce. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his first wife, Shirley Pitts Wood; son, John Anthony Wood; daughter, Terrie Wood Mycrink; and siblings, John, Lester, AJ, Ruby, Charles and Jimmy.

He moved to Clarkesville in the 60's and worked as a lineman and telephone installer for Standard Telephone Co. until he retired. He lived, worked and enjoyed the great outdoors of the mountains. Family, bees, hunting and farming were his great joys.

He is survived by son, Michael Wood of Clarkesville; daughter, Amy Wood Roseman Ebert of Tennessee; two grandchildren, Mesha and Zachery of Roseman, Tennessee; brothers, Ralph, Dilmus, and Ted; and sisters, Eunice, Brenda, and Mary; and many nieces and nephews.  

He leaves behind many friends. He never met a stranger and every stranger he met became his friend. His great stories and humor will be missed by all that knew him.

Little-Ward Funeral Home of Commerce is in charge of arrangements.
