Our heartfelt sympathy goes to children and grandchildren of Eddie Woodside. Both my wife and I knew Eddie at school and some yars after Graduation. He had a great zest for life, and excelled at whatever he learned. I Rennon remembered that in 1959 Eddie was mischief in school. One day I noticed Eddie played basketball using man to man well. I asked him why not he tried out on Varsity basketball team. He said he liked mischief and had no confidence in himself. I played and, at same time, showed him how to play basic basketball. In 1960 Eddie asked Coach Poss if he could try out for Varsity basketball. Coach Poss told him that he didn't want Eddie because of his mischief in school. I told him to try study to make good grades and continue practicing basketball. In 1961, Eddie made it on Varsity because he improved. He soared to a great player. In 1962, Eddie made All-American, and All-District. It was funny because I never made All-American. Yes, I made three year All-District. Eddie, goodbye and continue your zest afterlife.

I never really knew my father. I only know him through his friends and, sadly, through his ex-wives. After learning more about him, I regret not getting in touch with him or having him in my life while growing up.
But, one good thing came out of this for me. I met my young half-brother, Woody. Being the only child, it's thrilling for me. I would very much like to meet my father's other children and go on with life on a positive note.
I'd like to close with an excerpt of what I wrote on a wallet-sized picture that I gave him when I was 11 years old - "To Dad, For a wonderful father I've ever had in my life. Remember me as your daughter always. I love you very much, dad. Love, Nikki S." Even though I barely knew him then, I wrote that. I'd like for him to continue to remember me as his daughter wherever he goes.
I love you, Dad.

I never knew Woody. I never even got to meet him when he was living. But I still want to thank him as he's given me the most wonderful thing in my life: Nikki.
I see the sorrow she goes through for a father she never knew and wonder if her father had the same depth of feeling, the same unconditional love. I know that if he was anything like his daughter, he was a good person. As we learn more and more about who he was, we continue to find out that he was someone Nikki would have really liked. Not liked; loved.
Those of you who knew Woody are lucky. Some of us will regret never being able to meet the man that gave the world so many wonderful children. In that respect, we may never know for sure how much he gave us. May he rest in peace.

Both Douglas and I are deeply
saddened by his brutal death.
He was once our brother-in-law
back in the 1970's. Yes, he was
an excellent pool player and he
often played with my dad at the
clubhouse. Before Woody left
Mount Prospect NW of Chicago,
he gave one of his cues to my dad.
Our deepest sympathy to Woody's
family and friends. May he rest
in peace.

My son Corey and I want to say sorry to his family and friends.
Woody was my good friend for a long time. I know he loved to drink beers. We loved to drink and talk all the time. He always know how to make me laughed all the time. Also, I missed his way of cooking. I lost my chef. I believe no one cooks like him. Woody always took my son and me to fishing because he knew I loved to fish. Of course, my son Corey and I will miss him forever. God be with all of you.

First of all, our deepest sorrow sympathies go to the friends and children of Woody. 1989, when my family and I moved to Westville, Alton Hamilton and Woody came to our rented house, since then we were good friends and neighbors. For a short period, Woody resided with my family, we had fun so much being with Woody because he was the best comedian. In addition, he was gifted and had many talents in cooking, bowling & Sports,renovation, crafts and so on... Woody loved to play with words or sentence in American Sign Language, for instance, his famous signing, "how is you?" or "I am fine" Phila and NJ friends know what I am talking about. Woody always loved to teach beginner or amauter bowlers or table pool player how to play without using power force. His famous saying, DO NOT USE YOUR FORCE to roll the ball, just roll alike you sweep gracefully and use your thumb as like clock..10 or 11 or 12, then you will be fine bowler.
Last of all, we were shocked that Woody will not ever come back to us.
God be with him. We miss him, but we will never forget him.

I want to share with his children and grandchildren. Woody and I first met in Chicago in 1973. We became a good friend. When I moved to NJ from NYC and Woody moved here from Chicago in 1975. After my marraige separation, Woody and I became roommate for over 15 years. We initially resided in Westville, NJ for 12 years and moved to Paulsboro five yrs ago. I still do not believe that Woody was suddenly gone because I went to Canada on July 11th for my family and last seen him on July 11th. It was shocked and impossible that I would never see him again in my home. I wish it would never happened. However, I will always miss his fabulous cooking, his comedy and talks. I definitely miss him. God be with him.

I knew Eddie many, many, many years ago. The last time I saw him it was about 12 years ago. He was married to my mom 36 years ago and they had his first-born child, my baby sister, "Melinda". I'm sad to say I have been unable to reach Melinda to let her know of her father's passing. As a child, I remember when Eddie was my then step-father, as a family we would go out to the lake or the local swimming pool where he taught me how to swim. I remember going to so many of his basketball games & tournaments as a child. I remember how I used to think he was the best basketball player ever and remember seeing all the comments the deaf people would sign when he played. He moved so fast... he was good!
I would like to send my condolences to the rest of Eddie's children of whom I have not had the pleasure to know. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you.
