Stanley James Woods

Born: December 9th, 1963

Passed in: Curling
Passed on: April 19th, 2016

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Stanley (Stan) Woods of Curling, Newfoundland in his home on April 19, 2016. Born in Corner Brook on December 9th 1963, he was the son to the late Annie (Frampton) Woods and Frederick (Freddy) Woods. Stan was a kind, caring and loving big man, with an even bigger heart, who saw the best in people and loved sharing and swapping stories with anyone who would listen. He was always up for a laugh, or a good chat about old cars or the goings on of Corner Brook. Stan spent part of his working years travelling North America doing long haul trucking out of New Brunswick before returning back home to the island. Stan spent many years driving taxi, giving everyone he picked up a jolly "Hello", big smile and a "yes b'y". Stan leaves behind his partner in life Sherry Harding, brother Roland (Susan) Woods, sister Maxine Woods, nieces and nephews Ashleigh (Darren), and Melissa Woods, Mark (Mallory), John (Sharon), Andy (Jolene) and Terry (Tracey) Woods, all of whom held a special place in his heart. Stan never allowed for the struggles he faced to influence his outlook, enjoying the little things life had to offer such as camping, fishing, car shows and phone calls from loved ones. Stan would give you the shirt off of his back whether he had one or not. Now he will spend his time enjoying the smell of diesel fuel and burning rubber up in the clouds. In keeping with Stanley's wishes cremation has taken place. Friends may visit Country Haven Funeral Home, 167 Country Road on Sunday from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. The funeral service will take place on Monday, April 25, 2016 at 10:30 a.m. from the Country Haven Funeral Chapel. Interment will follow at a later date. As expressions of sympathy in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the charity of one's choice. The family guest book may be signed by visiting www.country-haven.ca.

"Until We Meet Again"
Those special memories of you,
Will always bring a smile,
If only I could have you back,
For just a little while.
Then we could sit and talk again,
Just like we used to do,
You always meant so very much,
And always will do too.
The fact you're no longer here,
Will always cause me pain,
But you're forever in my heart,
Until we meet again.
