Willie Ray Temple, Jr. was born July 28, 1998, in Des Moines. He attended schools in Fort Dodge from elementary through Fort Dodge Senior High School. He was employed with Hamilton Redi-Mix laying concrete. In his free time, he enjoyed video gaming; especially the game Fortnite and spending time with his family and girlfriend Libbie. He could always be found listening to old school rap and hanging out with his friends drinking Busch Light. He loved everyone and truly was a Gentle Giant. He will be terribly missed by everyone who knew him. All who were lucky enough to spend time and share their lives with Woody will have fond memories and always keep them close to their hearts.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be left to family discretion.
