It was love at first sight when he met Arlene and her 3 small children in Charleston, SC where he worked at the Cigar Factory. They were married on October 20, 1961 and celebrated 48 years together. To their union, a very special daughter, Diane, was born. This very special man raised and loved all 4 kids as his own. He was their Dad in every way that mattered. He will be greatly missed but the family finds great comfort in knowing that he is in heaven with his beloved wife and son. Mr. Woodbury was a veteran and served as assistant police Chief of the town of Hemingway for many years.

Also surviving are daughter-in-law, Wendy Woodbury of Chambersburg, PA and two sisters, Brittie Lee Hucks of Rock Hill, SC and Rebecca Spires of Pelion, SC.
