Dear Pauli, Kevin, Brian, Tim, Chris and Doug, Please accept Kevin and my deepest sympathy for the passing of Jack. He was a dedicated Doctor whom I admired greatly for his brilliance, generosity as well as his wild sense of humor. When I first met Jack more than 50 years ago, he was interested in what I was studying in Nursing School and encouraged me to continue my studies and to pursue my goal to become a medical doctor. I remember when he called me to see how I did on my RN Boards. ...

My Deepest Sympathy to The Wood family. I know how greatly Dr Wood will be missed. A compassionate and amazing man to so many. It was a privilege to have known him. May he rest in peace

Dr Wood was man of great honor and a doctor who you put all you faith in. May be rest in peace

Please accept my sincere sympathy on the passing of Dr. Wood. He was a wonderful Doctor and took the time to listen to any issues I was having. He delivered my first 2 daughters, however retired prior to my 3rd daughter coming. Imagine my surprise when Dr. Auth came into the OR and said he had a surprise. In walked Dr. Wood. He took the time to come assist with my last child since he was there at the birth of my first 2. I was extremely happy. RIP Dr. Wood. Now you play all the golf you want....

Dr. Wood lived his life to the fullest.. He was an amazing doctor and will be missed dearly. My Mom worked beside him for many years (Sylvia Pierce) and loved her career as a registered nurse. My condolences to the family.

Our heart goes out to Dr Woods family. He was a great Doctor who delivered me and my 2 children. He was a comedian when I gave birth to my first child , joking in the labor room and telling me it was a girl when it was a boy. I will never forget the day I had my son and the special doctor who delivered him. You will be missed by many!

To the Wood Family: Dr Wood was a kind, compassionate man, as well as physician. I am forever grateful he delivered all my children, and during one birth saved my life. I am so glad I was able to share my gratitude to him in person before he died. That was in the early part of his practice and he shared his experiences with son Michael. I am thankful to have experienced him in my life.

My condolences to Dr Wood's family. Dr Wood delivered my children and a granddaughter. What I remember most is his caring bedside manner. He could be talking one on one with his patient but no one else would know what was said. Rest in Heavenly Peace Dr Wood, you're now with the Great Healer......

Brian so sorry for your loss I know the memories you have with your dad will get you through this thinking of you and your family.
