Together they had 3 children and he taught each of them how to hunt and fish, and how to love, care and respect others. Woodrow worked hard away from home to provide for his family. Even though he was working away he carried the love for helping others with him. Woodrow made sure no one ever needed anything, he was always willing to help whatever the task may have been. He loved to tinker in his garage, with anything just to make sure it was running just right. He was a devout Christian, who will be deeply missed by his wife, children, family and friends.
