Dear Judy, Pat and Scott:
I am very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I always enjoyed talking with him about his family, business and cooking. I especially remember one evening at his house on Hamilton Street when a bunch of his friends from the King George got together to cook. He had this amazing machine--raclette--something I had never heard about before. I was blown away; that food was wonderful. He also took the time to teach me a puff pastry recipe with vegetables, sausage and...

To Bob's Family,
I worked closely with Bob as his Administrative Assistant for 6 years back in the late 80's, early 90's. I can't say enough about the kind, compassionate, and gentle man Bob was. During those 6 years, I had two long-term family crises that often took me out of the office. Never once, did he make me feel as though he was ever tired of dealing with my situation.

Dear Ilene and Wood family,
Bob was a wonderful human being who always had a kind word, praise and recognition for everyone. Bob just simply knew that his words of support meant that we could meet the challenges of life because of the qualities, skills, and traits he saw in each of us. He touched my life and the lives of so many. He appreciated others and he let us know why, and he always had something uplifting to say to me and to everyone. How fortunate I am to have known and...

Bob was a gracious and generous man, and along with his wife, Ilene, they were devoted to making this Allentown community better by offering support, encouragement and the use of their home for many non-profits. We will miss him.

Our sincere condolences to Bob's family, and to his close friends and associates who will miss him dearly, as does an entire community. I had the privilege to work for Bob for a decade, and he taught others as much by how he lived than how he led. Our community is a much better place to live because of Bob.

To The Family of Robert Clark Wood...
I had the pleasure of working for The Wood Company and met Scotty and Bob Wood who were the nicest people I have worked for in my healthcare career as a Food Service Director. Scotty and Bob made you feel like family and not just a work place. My deepest sympathy to you and your family.
COME TO ME...all you who are weary and heavy-burdened and I will give you rest. I am gentle and humble of heart.
