May 21, 2021 at 12:00 pmSo sorry for your loss. Billy and the entire Wood family are some of the nicest people we have known. I was fortunate enough to coach Billy when he was younger in AAU basketball and he was nothing but a total joy to be around. His smile always made me a happier person. Prayers and condolences from the Armstrongs. (Tony,Terre, and Sean)
