Louis Norwood

October 17, 1936 — May 16, 2025

Louis Norwood, Sr., 88, departed this life on May 16, 2025, following a short illness.

Known to many as “L.D.”, “Popo”, or “Lou”, he was born on October 17, 1936 in Mississippi, the son of the late T.J. and Maggie Norwood.

Louis was a resident of Albany, and worked all of his life in the dry cleaning business. He was a member of Mount Moriah Baptist Church, where he sang in the church choir. Louis loved fishing and spending time with his family and friends. On a nice day, you could find him on the front porch in his rocking chair, talking to anyone who walked by. Louis was a wonderful father and grandfather, and he loved his family unconditionally.

In addition to his parents, Louis was predeceased by his wife, Jacqueline Norwood; children, Louis Norwood Jr., Kenneth Norwood, and Gwendolyn Norwood; and his brother, Howard Norwood.

He leaves behind to cherish his memory, daughters, Shari Lynn Norwood and Donna Norwood; a host of grandchildren and great-grandchildren; siblings, Jerry Norwood (Virginia) and Sherlene Wallace (Alan Wallace).
