It is with great sadness that the family of David Wood announce his passing on June 9th, 2022, after an extended battle with cancer.

He is predeceased by his parents Audrey (Drayton) and Walter Wood and brother Stuart. He is survived by his wife of 35 years Sylvia Gervais and his children Sabrina and Darcy, siblings Dawn Woodard, Kathryn Merrill and Arthur Wood.
