Maurice WOODS Obituary

WOODS, Maurice James. It is with sad sad news, that the charismatic, jovial, "Oh I have a story for you", husband, father, grandfather and friend to so so many, passed away on the 22nd April 2025. He will be sorely missed by his devoted and loving wife Fiona, sons Hayden and James, grandchildren Tyler and Jacob, his loyal companions Jet, Sandy and Pepper, and extended Family. His love for nature, the sea and fishing will be missed by all, least of all by the fish, I'm sure. God Bless, your thoughts are with us all, your laughter, your will and fight to live will remain an inspiration to us all - rest well DAD, Fiona James and Hayden. A service for Maurice will be held in the James Hill Chapel, 97 Tuhikaramea Road, Dinsdale, Hamilton on Monday 28th April 2025 at 1pm. Followed by private cremation. Messages to the "Woods Family", C/- PO Box 4449, Hamilton East 3247.

Such a shock and sadness to hear the news. Woody you were larger than life and well loved in the neighbourhood. We'll miss the regular chats out and about and over the fence. To Fiona, Hayden and James our condolences. If you need anything you know where we are.
