I had only known Woody for less that a year, via the Venice Stamp Club, but what an impression he made on me! He was always thoughtful and willing to answer any and all of my stamp related questions with candidness and humor. I will miss him at our meetings and I will miss our conversations. My thoughts and prayers are with all of his family and friends. Mike Vagnetti

We are so saddened by your loss. As members of the Venice Stamp Club, we had the opportunity to visit with Woody often, and we always enjoyed it. His death is a tremendous loss to your family, his many friends, and the philatelic hobby. He led a very accomplished life. Dawn and John Hamman
