Margaret Inez Woods, age 93, of Trafford, Alabama, went home to be with the Lord on February 3, 2021. She was a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, sister, and friend. Inez was always on the go, active, and resilient. Her special style of sass, honesty, and loving attitude could engage anyone and light up a room. She treasured fond memories of her long career at Downey Automotive, working alongside owner Dick Downey. Inez enjoyed crafting all her life. She did wonderful crochet work, hand made purses, afghans, and beautiful quilts. She loved to be out in nature and enjoyed sitting on her front porch watching the hummingbirds. Inez was a member of Elvester Baptist Church in Warrior, AL. She was preceded in death by her father, Thomas Franklin; mother, Artie Pate Franklin; sisters, Fannie May Vaughn and Ivery Duncan; half-sisters, Cora McChain, Lora McChain, and Dora Graham; brothers, Henry Franklin and Thomas Franklin, Jr.; ex-husband, Lonzo L. Woods; and boss from Downey Automotive, Dick Downey.
