WOOD, Cecil Howard - Grandpa's gone flying! And so it goes. Another passing of a long and fulfilled life.
Cecil Howard Wood of Thornhill, Ontario, has spread his wings this past September 15, 2020.
Technically 96, he had also just gained the distinction of being the youngest of the family at 24, this past February.
Cecil married the girl he loved and had a family he loved and that loved him back. Woody was a mechanical engineer who had a passion for airplanes and spent a good deal of his life designing, building and flying model airplanes.
Back in Toronto, Woody and Oney had 3 children, Wendee, Randy, and Kerry. Dad loved Mom and it was a long and "wonderful" marriage. Sadly both Oney and Randy have passed. There are 7 grandkids, Sean, Morgan, Samantha, Kiki, Tashi, Kira, and Galen. Grandpa loved them all.
After Mom passed, Dad decided to date! At 84, he was a 'catch' and happily connected with a new friend Julia Bryant.
They had several sweet years of connection, travel and companionship.
After Woody sold the family home in Thornhill, he happily spent his final years at Del Manor where he was admired and we're told they miss him a lot, as we all do!
Have a great flight Grandpa, in deep gratitude and appreciation, we love you always.
