Elaine Wood Obituary

Wood, Elaine M. Pollock WYNANTSKILL Elaine M. Pollock Wood, 74, died on Sunday, February 20, 2022, at her residence after a brief illness. Born in Troy, she was the daughter of the late Ralph N. Pollock and Marion Dugrenier Pollock; and wife of the late Robert C. Wood who passed on January 31, 2022. She was raised in Troy and resided in North Greenbush for the past 40 years. Elaine was a graduate of Troy High School and earned her bachelor's degree from Russell Sage College. Elaine was an artist and owner of Glass Corner in Wynantskill where she designed and created stained glass works and held many copyrights. She enjoyed camp life, gardening, fishing, cooking and most of all, her family. Her favorite day was Christmas cookie day with her grandchildren. Elaine was an extremely kind woman with a huge heart and will be dearly missed but we are happy that she is with "pop" again. Survivors include two sons, Sean Wood of Troy and Andrew Wood of North Greenbush; a daughter, Kathleen Ratigan of Poestenkill, 10 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

Hello,
I thought I would send a message, although it is way after the loss of Elaine & Bob. My sympathy is with you, albeit belatedly. I met Elaine and Bob at a craft show many years ago, and was so impressed with them, and their work, that I kept their business card for all these years. I just came upon their card as I am attempting to purge, and was sad when i Googled and read of their passing, and only 3 weeks and 1 day apart....what can one say? Unfortunately, I regret not following up with them on the notes I wrote on their card regarding the pieces in which I was interested. So if anyone reads this, I so enjoyed the time I spent with them. They were exceptionally talented and special people, and whoever was a part of their circle was truly very blessed. I know they truly touched my heart and soul.

With Sincerity,
Tish Gallagher
