I first got to know Woody when he ran a crew for construction projects at the Homestake mine starting in the 70´s. He was foreman when Clair Donovan brought him to Homestake for new projects at the mine we were incorporating. He was a bulldog that got things done. You will always be missed. Thanks for the time I got to work with you.

So sorry to hear about JB´s passing.
We served together in the Army in Germany. He was a good friend.
My prayers are with all his family.
