Dana Sue Wood

Dana was born on November 4th, 1957 in Shreveport, Louisiana to Ida & Jerry Shields. From an early age, she was known for her gentle spirit, her warm smile, and her willingness to help anyone in need. She carried those qualities throughout her life, touching countless hearts with quiet strength and steady love.

Dana married Steve Wood on August 19th, 1988, and together they blended a family with 5 children. There was never a loss of laughter and devotion to one another. She was a devoted [wife/mother/grandmother/sister/friend], and nothing brought her more joy than time spent with her family—whether it was simple evenings at home, holidays together, or cheering on children and grandchildren at their events.

Dana is survived by her devoted husband Steve Wood, her mother, Ida Shields, her children Steven Wood, Cory Graham, Toni Shopp, Stephanie Lockaby and Brandi O’Brien, her grandchildren Ryan Selman, Terra Shopp, Trey Wood, Mia Rogers, Nadine Graham, Harper O’Brien and Haven O’Brien and great grandchildren Aaron, Jaxon, Jesselyn & Brooklyn. She is also survived by her brothers Mike and Mark Shields, and a host of extended family and friends who will miss her dearly. She was preceded in death by her Father Jerry Shields and grandparents Wilma and William Boyd.

Though our hearts are heavy, we rejoice that Dana is now in the presence of the Lord she loved, and we hold fast to the promise that we will see her again.
