Edward L. Wood (Woody) 79 of Oak Harbor, passed away peacefully on August 18, 2025. Woody was born on July 26, 1946, in Wichita, Kansas. He proudly served as a mechanic with the Ohio Army National Guard from March 1969 until his retirement in August 2001.

A man who loved the outdoors, Woody found joy in hunting, fishing & spending time in the great outdoors with his friends & family. He also had a knack for uncovering treasures at local auctions, a hobby that he truly enjoyed.

Woody was preceded in death by his mother, Phyllis Tunnel & his brother David Wood. He is survived by his three daughters: Kelly (David) Crouch, Amy White & Erica Mendiola; as well as seven cherished grandchildren who always brought a smile to his face.

A graveside service at Roose Cemetery will be held on a day & time to be announced. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions be made to St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Oak Harbor or to Heartland Hospice in Fremont.
