If you own or have ever owned a Correct Craft / Nautique boat then you know or have at least heard of Woody., (his real name is David Wood). He is my mentor when it comes to Correct Craft boats. I have never met anyone that knows more about Correct Craft boats than he knows after 35 years at S.E. Correct Craft. He recently informed me that he has Stage 4 Hodgkin's Lymphoma and Stage 3 of another cancer. His employer, (yes, he was still working full time at 70 as an auto service writer), sent him to the doctor and they immediately put him in the hospital. He is home now but has no income for living expenses, (who knows how long S.S. will take for him to get any money from them!), and I am sure there will be outrageous medical bills to follow. I have set up a Go Fund Me page for him. It is Gofundme.com/woody-s-medical-relief. Please be as generous as you can as every little bit helps.
I will try to keep everyone updated as I know. Thank you in advance for your help. Wood's medical relief Quick link |

Yeah Woody told us of this news a few weeks ago and I wasn't too sure if It was ok to make the announcement for his prayers and concerns. Best hopes from my family to him. Woody, thanks for always helping us out.

What a great guy. I talked to him back in the 90's when I bought my first CC. He took the time to go over several questions I had and gave me good sound advice. I know he has helped several of my friends over the years. Praying for him and his family. Donation made.

Woody had his first round of chemo yesterday and it went well,(as well as chemo gets I suppose! He sounded in good spirits but myself being one that suffers from many illnesses including Lupus, cancer and more, I know acting tough as long as you can is all a man has to hold on to. The last thing he needs is to worry about money so if you can help even a little, it will be appreciated. For those of you that don't know how Gofundme.com works, once you donate, it will go directly to Gofundme.com and then, when Woody request it, Gofundme.com directly deposits it in his bank account. Thank you and God Bless. I

Donation sent...... Hang in there Woody and keep fighting the fight!
Thanks for setting this up George! We got word of Woody's health at the Ruckus. At the Sat Night dinner Art stood up and let everyone know and right then Jerry suggested that we pray for our friend..... What a fantastic group of Boat Buds. Instead of buying Woody a beer, toss a few bucks to help him beat this disease. |

Woody seems to be in good spirits. His blood test results weren't favorable for his second dose of chemo so it was put off for a week.
Your support not only helps financially but to know so many of you care about him is probably doing as much, if not more, help than the chemo ! |

More CCF members should try and help out. Past the 1/2 way point of the goal of $5,000 with 26 people giving. I'd assume CCF has 1000's of members. Help Woody out in his time of need.

+1 Ron...... Come on you guys, settle for a 6 pack of Coors or PBR instead of your Snobby Beer and throw some cash for Woody!

Woody is in good spirits. He gets chemo every other week and after 2 treatments, side-effects seem to be minimal or he is just a tough guy ! Thank you all for the help.

Woody had his third round of chemo Tuesday. Yesterday the side effects reared their ugly heads but he seemed to still be in good spirits. Writing as someone that has been dealing with a serious, incurable disease, Lupus, along with hypothyroidism and a list of others for the last 15 years, to which cancer was added about a year ago, I can tell you that the last thing he needs is the stress of worrying about how he is going to make his house payment, buy groceries, medicine, etc., etc. He has helped literally thousands of people by fixing their boat, selling them the correct parts, giving advice and directions on boat problems, etc.
Every little bit helps. GoFundMe keeps a little but 92% of all donations go directly to Woody and is under his complete control. No one can touch the money but him. The donations, no matter how small, are as good as the chemo because it shows him that people care. Thank you all and God Bless you. In God We Trust. Help spread the word! |
