While we never had the privilege of meeting Woody; we do know his son Dana and his wonderful wife Phyllis (Dooley). What knowing Dana tells us is that Woody was a man of honor, character, kindness, humor and great integrity because that is the son he raised. Blessings to the Wood Family. Gary and Sabrina
