Memorial

“I have been lucky enough to know him for some time now, and I can honestly say that he had a huge impact on my life. Every night during build season I would see him and he would manage to smile back at me no matter what. The team won’t be the same without him. It’ll keep on thriving, but it’s a void that will never be filled. We’re going to miss him a lot."

-Tracey Jaron, 2015 CEO

“Everyday, he taught me something new; from technical expertise, to career advice, to insight on life, his lessons quickly became who I was. From him I learned to value volunteerism, compassion, and dedication. For three years of my high school career he was my biggest role model. Dr. Wood was a selfless man and possessed a true passion for engineering. His memory will always live on through the valuable lessons he has taught me and his countless cadets and students. Having known him, I am a better person, and because of him, I know that engineering is my passion too."

-Grace Wilson, 2015 VP of Community Outreach
