Not sure what to say?

Woody, you are missed.

Woody was my dear, dear friend. Hilarious, smart af, and sweet. We had so many wacky hijinx over the years and I think of him daily. I´ll never forget when we talked about getting older (this was in our 20s), and how we´d still be friends, but just old. Love you, Wood!

I still think of this sweet man often and can´t believe he´s gone. Truly a beautiful soul.

Yes he was a kind, gentle, funny man who made life more interesting for all who knew him. Dearly missed.

Our hearts are broken, but we will hold onto our wonderful memories of our dear Woody. Wishing everyone peace, love, and healing.

Woody - we will miss your vibrant soul and endless wit - in real life and online. Lovely memories of all those years ago (West) with you and others will always be with me. Sorry for the loss - for all of Woody's family and friends. Peace.

So many great times with Woody in high school! He made music fun. Glad I got to see him one last time when he visited Anchorage last June. So sorry for the family's loss.

I still remember, when Woody asked me to sing Pat Benatar's song, "Hit Me With Your Best Shot." It was in a medley, he put together, at our high school! We all had so much fun! He was an extremely talented singer/ piano player and a crazy nut! He was OUR Elton John/Billy Joel... Class of 82!
