Not sure what to say?

Ole Woody was just about as funny as you could get. I knew him through the car car business. He used to keep us in stitches with his stories & jokes. I'm glad I got to see him a couple of months ago, rest in peace Ole buddy.

Gayle, sorry to hear about Woody. I'm blessed to have known him, if only for a few short years back when we lived next to you guys on Hawthorne Greene. I pray for peace for you and the family during this time that only the Lord can provide.

Sorry for the loss of such a wonderful person. May the God of comfort be with the family during this time. 2 Cor. 1:4

To Ryan, Claudinka and family:
So sorry for your lost. I remember
going to Savannah with Woody and an
outrageous funny night at the Pirate
House with great entertainment from
Woody. He should have replaced the
people on the stage that night. A
talent agent could have booked him
a 5 year contract. Our sincerest
condolences, Vicki and Tait Nelson

Woody, remembering you brings so many memories! I am sorry I did not know your wife and children. The time we spent together on N. Congress was really special. Yours was the first Model A Ford I drove and that was when I learned to understand "spark advance". This may be a silly post but you were special in my life. Hard to believe it has been over 40 years since I last saw you. May God bless your family. Doug Barnes
