Mr. Glenn Wallace Wood, age 79 of Douglas, passed away Thursday evening, February 14, 2019 at Coffee Regional Medical Center following an extended illness. Mr. Wood was born September 3, 1939 to the late Leo Wood and the late Mary Wood. 

Mr. Wood was born at home in rural Broxton. He grew up as a sharecropper’s son, learning the meaning of hard work from an early age. Later he moved on to New Smyrna Beach, Florida, in search of a better opportunity. He got a job with a construction company and operated heavy equipment for many years. Later, Glenn went into the roofing business, working in Florida and Arkansas, where he had moved in 1985. After retiring from roofing, Glenn moved back to Douglas to be near his many friends and family members, where he worked as a salesman at David’s used cars. Glenn’s favorite hobby by far was buying, selling and working on old cars and trucks.

Survivors include: sons Mike Welch and wife Linda of Arkansas 
Glenn Wood, Jr. and wife Cathy of Tennessee; brothers Pearly Wood and Douglas-Mac Wood, both of Douglas, L.W. Wood of New Smyrna Beach, Florida; and Junior Wood of Centre, Alabama; grandchildren Justin and Brooke Wood; and a number of nieces, nephews, cousins and a host of friends

The funeral service will be Monday, February 18, 2019 at 11:00 A.M. at Chapel of Ricketson Funeral Home with Mike Welch and Glenn Wood, Jr. officiating. Entombment will follow at the Dixie Mausoleum at Douglas City Cemetery.

The family will receive friends, Monday, February 18, 2019 from 10:00 A.M. until the funeral hour at Ricketson Funeral Home.

Ricketson Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
