A shining star, a big heart, and, as ever a wonderful storyteller! Congratulations, Doctor Wood!

I will pass this on to her Alan. She still tells the story of appearing at your college and opening with "In Mexico, Maine, where I grew up, you couldn't find a single Mexican." Wonderful story-teller, for sure.
