My deepest condolences to Sherwood’s (Woody) family. We grew up together and our dads use to get us wrestling all the time, but we remained friends. He was a hard working man. I was proud of him. So sorry for your loss.

Dear Carol and children, so very sorrow for your loss of Bunny. We went to school from grade one to eight and remained friends along with his mom Rita and some of the girls. We shared many good talks of old times and happy memories as you and your loved ones will. Love and Blessings, Dodie Russell Patterson.

Sending condolences to Carol and all the families, He was always there at Woody Thomas flooring and would always come out to measure our floors to make sure the measurements were correct. A pleasant helpful person, no more suffering now. He will always be remembered. From Cecil and Bonnie Davis and families.
