I had Mr. Ostrom for one class when I was a senior at Lakeridge High School, and he genuinely influenced my life. He was the first teacher who took me seriously as a writer and student. It meant a lot because I respected him very much. He was a great history teacher - I remember many lessons from that class 40 years later. I am very sorry that I didn't tell him this before he passed. He influenced me to become a writer and I've always been grateful to him.

I enjoyed my time spent with Woody both in school & out fishing. He was a "Kick" to be with. I'll miss him. My thoughts & prayers are with your family.

I had the pleasure of living near Woody and Patti for 10 years. They were warm and caring neighbors and we all became friends. I treasure the times we had together. I will never forget ringing their door on Christmas Eve to deliver my home made baklava and always being invited in. Once Woody went and got us some of his smoked salmon so he had something to give back. He never just drove by and waved either. He would stop in the middle of the street and roll down the car window to have a conversation! Woody will be so very missed. My love and prayers to this lovely family.

Woody was a teacher that provided motivation and support. All of my memories are fond and will always bring a smile to my face.

Woody brightened our lives when we taught together in the early days of Lakeridge High.

Time and distance has not callused my love for your sweet family! Childhood memories of the time Mr and Mrs Ostrom always took, first thing, when they got home from work,before dinner, just to enjoy each other's company. It was evident this was a home built on love. Clearly, their children have benefited from their beautiful example with their committed marriages. What a beautiful legacy of love and family. God bless you all and hold you tightly through this sadness. All my love and prayers are with your dear family!

I have many fond memories of Elwood growing up in Woodburn. He was my cousin on my dad's side of the family. My Grandmother Roberts delivered his father, Tom, and then delivered Elwood as she was a midwife. My brother! DuWayne Roberts, and Elwood were very close and shared many adventures together, almost like brothers. Elwood was very much a family man who loved his family and shared his life with them. My prayer for his family is to remember the good times, remain close to each other and support each other. Marilyn Roberts Edmonds
