WOOD, Norman
December 1, 1935 – October 21, 2017
Norm went home to be with his Lord and Saviour early Saturday morning after a courageous battle with cancer at the General Hospital in Ottawa. He leaves in sorrow his wife, Carole (nee Evans), and his four daughters; Wendy Solomon (Chris) and two granddaughters, Lindsey and Carly; Sallye Wood and grandson, Graham Norman; Amy Wood-Steinberg (Leo Steinberg); and Jenny Wood (Whitney Fraser) and granddaughter, Abby. Norm was the youngest son of George and Amy Wood. He had 4 older siblings, Grace Wills (Osborne), Isobel Covell (Earl), James Wood (Layne) and Arthur. Norm is survived by many nieces and nephews. Norm’s schooling began in a one-room school on the Old Kingston Rd. Later he attended high school in Smiths Falls. He went on to complete dental school at the University of Toronto in 1958, and he practiced dentistry in Smiths Falls, Ontario, for over four years. Norm then pursued further education at Northwestern University in Chicago to become an oral surgeon. He then decided to continue his education receiving an M.S. and Ph.D. at the Northwestern University in Pathology. Norm taught at Loyola University School of Dentistry for 21years. He ended his career there as a full professor and Chairman of Oral Diagnosis, Radiology and Pathology Departments. In 1989, he accepted the position of Dean of Dentistry at the University of Alberta for six years. Norm authored four textbooks, three of which have been translated into a number of foreign languages. He also published many research articles throughout his teaching career which he thoroughly enjoyed. He retired with his wife, Carole, to his home in Rideau Ferry, Ontario, where he enjoyed spending time by the lake, planting trees and tending his gardens.
