Carla Wood was born on June 6th 1955 to Carl and Leota Cornell. She did many wonderful things in her life. Her most recent joys included spending as much time as she could with her family and making blankets to comfort children with cancer. She is survived by her loving husband David, Five children Paul, Joshua, Katie, Deveda and Shelly, and her 18 beautiful grandchildren, as well as one brother, four sisters, and a ton of friends. She loved working in the yard and tending to the plants and flowers, as well as working on the house with her husband. Carla Wood came and went all too soon and will be extremely missed, but never forgotten!
