Re: Loss to NAXJA
A true original he was.

He was a calming presence and a reassuring leader during tumultuous BOD times. A great resource when I was Colorado Chapter prez.

Take care Don.

Indeed he was!!!!!

"He was a calming presence and a reassuring leader during tumultuous BOD times."

Lets hope that rubbed off on many of us.

Never had the pleasure of meeting him in person. Interacted with him on the web many times and thought of him as a friend. RIP Woody.

Re: Loss to NAXJA
Great guy. First met him at Tellico in '02 I believe, and we wheeled together a few times after that. He was always entertaining to watch on the trail and the Rich Mountain ride back in '02 (or was it '03?) wouldn't have been nearly as memorable without him.

Rest in peace

Re: Loss to NAXJA
Met him at NACfest '04, kept in touch sporadically, traded a few parts. Was great to see him again in Moab in '08. Like many ns that I consider friends, but don't see nearly enough, it was easy to resume our friendship as if we'd just seen each other last week.

And that southern accent couldn't hide an intelligence and wit matched by few on , or anywhere for that matter...

Re: Loss to NAXJA
His memorial service is Tuesday at 7:00 at Lighthouse Assembly of God 8361 NC-24, Carthage, NC 28327. I talked to Beth this morning at Kennedy Funeral Home. They only have the ability to take checks by mail and credit cards. If anyone wants to help in his families expenses you can send a check to:
Kennedy Funeral Home
P.O. Box 307
Carthage, NC 28327

You can call in a donation at:

The family has set up a paypal account to help with expenses. Currently they are 4k short in just the funeral expenses alone.

Mandylou24@excite.com

Remember no fees with friends and family donations.

Woody's granddaughter said he loved this club.
