Even before I got to know Woody in the 90s, I recall my Dad speaking of him with respect and appreciation. I then learned what a kind, generous, and FUN man he was. Thanks Uncle Woody for your dedication, generosity, and support to so many people. I will always remember the fun times with you & the Boosters, especially on our trips to Buffalo. I imagine you and my Dad will be watching the Wildcats from the best seats in the house from here on out. RIP

May God bless you and keep you strong at this very difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you...........I can't remember a time that your Dad didn't have a HUGE smile on his face .....or a kind word or silly phrase to say. Uncle Woody you will be greatly missed. We aren't related by blood but you always made me feel like part of the family. Thank you "Uncle Woody" may you rest easy

Dear Karen and Dana,
Words cannot begin to express the shock, sorrow and emptiness you must be feeling at this time. Just know that you are that much better of a person to have had Woody a part of your life, and, you, Dana, blessed to have him as your dear, loving father. I always remember "Woody" with a smile on his face. Hold on to your memories and God, family and friends will help get you through this. Remember, we are crying for our loss, not his ... he is in a much better place, cheering us all on with life. God bless and lots of prayers.

Dear Dana and Karen: I offer my sincere sympathy at your loss.
Woody was a terrific man and good neighbor. I first met him while Elmer Erb's "crew" was building his home on what was to become Kennedy Court. For many years he was our next-door-neighbor and friend. He will be missed by those who knew him and enjoyed his warm company as well as those who might not have known him but benefited from his kind generosity.
Sincerely, Jake Dailey & family

Dear Karen and Dana,
Woody was one of the most generous men that I have ever known. His involvement and giving in Pottstown, the Owen J. Roberts, and Vero Beach communities will always be remembered. His personal involvement with all of my elections was invaluable. I know that without his help, I would not be where I am today. I will always cherish my many good times with him forever.
Woody, my friend, I will see you again.
