Allan Woodell Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born in Washington, DC, on July 9, 1938, he was the son of the late Kelly Woodell and Ethel Knight Woodell. Allan was a gifted craftsman and spent his career as a contractor. He owned and operated his own construction company and eventually retired as an inspector. He also enjoyed working outdoors – you could always find him watering flowers, gardening and riding his lawnmower. He also liked cruising around the Caribbean.
Survivors include his beloved wife of 65 years, Janice Woodell; daughter, Catherine Woodell; grandchildren, Amy Duvall, Ashley Lanham, Adam Woodell, Alison Elsner, and Evan Woodell; several great-grandchildren; brother Joseph "Joe" and his wife Ginny; sister, Lynne Woodell and her husband Ed; many nieces, nephews and friends.
In addition to his parents, Allan is preceded in death by his son, Allan Scott Woodell; and his siblings, Mary Bartlett, Helen Maggiore, Ethel "Blimpy" Cangemi, and Harry Woodell.
A committal service will be held at Southern Memorial Gardens in Dunkirk, Maryland, at 12:30 PM on Thursday, October 16.
We find comfort in knowing that Herky's legacy lives on through the lessons he taught us, the love he shared, and the memories we will cherish forever.
