September 27, 1945 — December 5, 2014

Nellie May Wood, a lifelong resident of Weatherford, TX, died on December 5, 2014 at Community Hospice Center in Ft. Worth. She was 69 years old.

Born on September 27, 1945 in Weatherford, Nellie was the daughter of Norman "Preacher" Wood and Cordelia Annette (Reed) Wood.
 Nellie graduated from Weatherford High School in 1966 and earned her licensed vocational nursing (LVN) degree from Campbell Memorial Hospital School of Nursing in 1968.
