On Monday, September 19 2022, Ken Wood passed away at the age of 76. He was born on April 7, 1946

in Atlanta, Georgia to Charles and Erma Wood. He played football throughout high school and was

recruited by the University of Georgia to play running back. Ken graduated from UGA with a Bachelor's

degree in Business. He had a long career in the heating and air and construction industries. He is

survived by his brother Dr. Danny Wood, his three children, Gena Cramer, Angie Slappey and Kenneth

Wood. He also leaves behind eight grandchildren, Madison Cramer, Steven Slappey, Emma Cramer, Kate

Slappey, Eli Slappey, Ethan Wood, Ellie Wood and Lucy Slappey. He loved being outdoors and enjoyed

hunting and fishing and shared this love with his grandsons. After he retired, he was always ready to

cheer for his grandchildren in their various sports. His desire was to be cremated and have a memorial

service with his family and close friends on his son-in-law's farm, where he enjoyed many hours. To

quote his grandson, Steven, he was an imperfect man with a big heart, and he will be missed.
