Obituary
Passed away Friday, July 7th, 2023 after a courageous battle with cancer at Residential Hospice of Grey Bruce-Chapman House. Gary was born in Midland, Ontario on December 20, 1944 the youngest of four boys. He left Midland in 1963 for work in Toronto and settled in Owen Sound in 1974. Gary was an accountant and was employed by the City of Owen Sound as Treasurer, and then by the County of Grey as CAO for a combined period of 32 years.
Beloved husband of Barbara Wood (nee MacMillan) for 53 years. Dear brother of Larry Wood (Eilean) of Tiny. Gary will also be missed by his in-laws; nephews, nieces, great-nieces and by many cousins and long-time friends.
Predeceased by his parents Lorne (Smokey) Woods and Mary Woods and by his brothers Len and Dan Wood all of Midland.
Note – father’s name was registered in 1906 with an “S” but children were registered without the “S”. Long story but the family name was actually “Dubois” and was anglicized to Wood.
Gary and Barbara travelled to various countries and spent some winters in Florida. He enjoyed curling, golfing, fishing, hunting, home renovation projects, attending Silver C’s meetings, being a founding member of Outdoors Adventures and founding member of the Scenic City Order of Good Cheer. Gary was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch # 6 in Owen Sound. He also enjoyed his years of quality time spent travelling with his loving wife Barb and their many close friends and family. Gary was always there when someone needed him. He will be truly missed by all.
If desired memorial donations to the Owen Sound Regional Hospital Foundation and the Chapman House Hospice would be appreciated.
