Memories and Condolences
for BRIAN WOOD
December 25, 2010
Heartwrenching yet tremendously inspiring. The love of a Father and protective nature has never been more epitomized than by this man's act. As I read more about him, it is apparent that he lived his life to the fullest and his spirit is obvious to even a casual observer.
Respectfully,
Tom W.

Erin, I heard your story on the Today show and couldn't believe it. I can't imagine what you are going through right now. My condolences to you and your family.
September 21, 2010
I read of your loss on the computer and my heart broke for you. I can't imagine what you are going thru right now but do know that God is in control and your strength and comfort right now and will give you no more then you can handle, lean on him for comfort he is by your side. God bless you and your baby. Prayers are being said for you and your family.

Erin, wow, can’t believe this is all true. I’m deeply sorry to hear of Brian. I grew up with him in Lakewood and we spent the night often at each other’s house playing games like The Bard’s Tale or Ultima. We also read the Dragonlance books together and would have friendly competitions of how many pages we read the night before. We drifted apart in high school, but I will always remember the years we spent as close friends. More than anything, I remember his constant good mood, he was always smiling and happy as can be. May your heart heal and may you see Brian’s qualities in your child.

Dear Erin,
I know that words can't express what your going through right now. Your husband was an amazing man, and a true Hero. My eyes are a tad wattery just from typing up this message. The only joy I feel is that the gaming community has done so much to try to ease your pain. I do hope things will get better for you, and I'm sure your child will grow up happy and just as amazing as your husband. I know you must feel empty and alone, but your not. Your husband spent his life helping the gaming community. Were here to return the favor. My prayers will be with you and your child.

Dear Erin, I cannot even imagine the sorrow and grief that you must be feeling. My deepest sympathies for you. I know Brian's parents, from college days. In fact, my daughter once met and played with Brian when must have been about 5 years old. Her prayers will be with you.

Dear Erin and family,
I had the pleasure of working with Brian a couple of years ago on Tales of Valor. For me, Brian was someone who was generous in spirit. I always found him to be approachable, helpful and extremely supportive. I will remember his humor, his impressions and the kindness he showed towards me. I offer my deepest sympathies for your loss as well as a heartfelt prayer to give you the courage to heal.
My heart goes out to you. And my prayers are with you in this difficult time.

Dear Erin, I am truly saddened for you and your family at this time. I knew Brian briefly at Lawrence and I remember his presence as being one of joy and laughter. My prayers are with you.

Erin, we've not met but I have fond memories of Brian from university. He did my make-up to turn me into an old woman for the musical Pippen. I always laughed at how he chewed on his tongue while he was concentrating on making my wrinkles. I'm very saddened to hear about Brian's death. I'll be thinking happy, healthy thoughts for you and your baby. My best, Alyssa (Hendrickson) McKillip

Dear Erin and Brian's parents: There are no words to describe your loss but Erin there is an old Eskimo legend you can tell your precious Nov arrival. The eskimos believe that there are no stars in heaven, there are symply holes where those who have gone before us shine their every loving light down to protect us and remind us with their light that they still think of and love us forever more. May God and the unrequited love of Brian and the strength of family and friends see you through this. Maybe if the baby is a girl maybe you could name her Briana which is a derivative of Brian? Be strong sweetheart and honor Brian's sacrifice. Remember how much you ARE loved.

I was on vacation Sept 3rd, 2010 and for the first time in 31 years was visiting my home away from home during my US Navy days, Whidbey Island. I passed by the exact spot this accident occured at less than hour before it happened. I had just opened my hotel windows to State HWY 20 around 9pm local time when a series of emergency vehicles raced by for what seemed like an hour. I knew something terrible had happened, which gave me a sick feeling. When I heard on the news that night what had happened, I was completely hearbroken. My heartfelt condolences to Mrs. Wood and her child especially, and to everyone that lost a loved one in this senseless tragedy. I was on Deception Pass Bridge about 1 1/2hr before the accident and took series of photos of the sunset that Sept 3rd on Whidbey. All the people involved were still alive when I took the photo I am including with this message. I will forever remember Mr Wood by looking at this image and I hope Mrs. Wood likes it as well.

Erin, I don't know you. I live in IL, but your story touched my heart. I even started crying watching a news video of you. I can't begin to imagine how you felt after losing your husband. Brian must have been an incredibly brave and loving man. I can't give much, but I did donate for you. I am deeply sorry for your loss and send my prayers and thoughts to you and your family.

Dear Erin and Brian's Parents,
I am very sorry for your loss. I do not know you personally but I came across your story on yahoo and I have watched the Today show video clip. God can get you through this! Last September a man named Brady lost his wife right after she delivered their daughter. They had been married for 5 years too. He blogged about his story and how he was able to make it through with God's help, even when he was suddenly a single parent. Their daughter just celebrated her first birthday. When you get a chance please read his blog, I know it will encourage you as you begin the difficult journey ahead of you.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. You CAN get through this in time and you will all be stronger as a result.

Dear Erin,
Sorry to hear about ur loss of ur husband. Even though I didnt know him directly. I hope that u'll never 4get what he did 4 u and ur unborn child. He made the greastest sacrifice to protect u and his unborn child.
I will pray 4 u and ur child. The song from Creed called "My Sacrifice" should be a good song to remember him 4 what he did.

To Brian's family and friends, I am sorry for your loss. Brian was one of my upstairs neighbors when I was attending Lawrence. He had such a beautiful voice and a delightful, goofy sense of humor. I remember him, when he sang the lead in Sweeney Todd, taking a role that could have been just bleak and finding the comedy in it. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
September 17, 2010
Deeply sorry for your loss.

Erin, my heart is aching for you and your child. I have a young child myself and I can't imagine what you are going through. Every time I do, my mind goes blank with terror. I was at LU with Brian and did not know him well, but I remember him as a kind and friendly person. I hope you can take the time to feel your pain and grieve your loss - it honors Brian and your love. All the best to you.

Dear Erin,
I knew Brian but briefly as we lived in the same residence hall at Lawrence University. The biggest thing that stands out in my mind about Brian was how happy he was -- he never seemed to be in a bad mood or take a single day for granted.
When I heard about what happened last week, I was absolutely stunned. Yet somehow, I'm not surprised in the least that he would choose your life and your baby's life over his.
God Bless you dear, and your baby. My deepest sympathies to you and your family.
Mark
September 17, 2010
There is nothing more to show the character of a husband and father-to-be than by willing sacrifice of his life for his loved ones.
Brian's sacrifice reminds me of John 15:13 - Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one�s life for his friends.
Jen
September 17, 2010
My heart goes out to Erin and her family as well as Brian's family. I obviously never knew Brian or Erin for that matter but read this story when I saw it come across Yahoo. May God be with you and yours during this time and know that Brian will forever be watching from above. Erin best wishes on raising a beautiful child in hopes he/she will have the same strength and courage his/her father had and the best attributes you possess as well....

Dear Erin and family,
May God give you strength in this time. I have read your story of what happen and I thank God that you seem to all remain strong. Brian seem to be an amazing man and he would have been a wonderful father. I did not know him but he would want you Erin to stay strong. When the baby comes oh what joy you will have. Brian will look down and see how great you both look to him. He will always be there in your heart. I have had a loss eight years ago and I know how you must feel. Just keep doing things in his memory. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. May God Bless You.

Its wonderful to know that there are still men of courage and conviction in this world who would die to protect others. They are not all in the military, as we see from Brian Woods.
A truly tragic loss to show how valuable he considered his family. Erin he will always be with you and your baby.

Your story has touched my soul. Although we have never met, I feel I need to tell you how deeply sorry I am for your loss. I just had my first baby boy this year with my husband of 5 years. I felt such a connection with you while watching your story today, and I wish there was something I could do to help you through this tough time. My thoughts are with you and your family. Please remember you will have an angel named Brian by your side forever. I wish you the best in life to come and hope you find comfort knowing Brian's love will live on with you in your new baby to be. May God's warmth bless you and your family.

Erin...I read your story and I'm a young widow as well (I'm 43). I lost my husband in July after he died suddenly in an accident. We have a 2-year-old little girl and a 12-year-old boy. I just want you to know that, on some level, I understand much of what you are going through and how all-consuming the grief can be. I understand how hard it is to be around your husband's clothes and every-day belongings. I understand how painful the memories can be....even the happiest ones! But I can tell you that I believe wholeheartedly that your husband is very much with you and your baby and will be watching over you. I have had several experiences of my husband's presence (I found a note he had written to me at just the right moment!) And I'm confident that if you have not had experiences or moments yet like this....you will.... and it will bring great comfort.
So...lots of love and blessings to you and your baby.
All my best...
