Glad that we took a trip together with Woody to the Tillacom Military Flight Museum along with his son Jon and grandson Scott. It was a great trip. We flew down in a nice rig from Seattle had lunch at the museum. We shared some Air Force and other things. One of the most funniest things on that trip that I will never forget is Woody was looking at his grandson and asking him if he had any interesting ladies in his life and his reason for asking is that Scott was seated in the area of the aircraft where he had a nice size mirror admiring himself and Scott said to him; "With a face like this there are many takers." To which his dad replied, "My aren't we in love with ourself." We all laughed. We will miss you Woody!

John and I had the opportunity to meet Woody and Cora several years ago when Jon and Joan brought them to visit us, and what a terrific time that was. I will always remember Woody as a great guy, and pray that God's comfort be near to all his precious family.

My dad was a true man of all seasons and a good father. I know he now rests in peace with our Lord Jesus.
