We cannot keep from wondering
No matter how we try
And in our sad and troubled hearts
We keep on asking why?
The reason is hidden somewhere
In the pattern God has planned
We must believe and trust Him and some day
We will understand why

Steve BroughmanSo sorry to hear of Woody's passing. I worked with him at Chrysler back in the late 80's. He was my supervisor in the wheel room and I was the Chief Steward up there. I have to say, Woody was one of the nicest people I have ever met. Never said a bad word about anybody or any thing. I used to see him every now and then at Walmart too, and he always made a point of taking time to say HI to me. Then I ran into him about a year ago at McDonalds and we talked for half an hour or more. My prayers and condolences go out to the family. He will be missed.
