Who Was David Woodard?
Throughout the course of his more than fifty years in the legal profession, David helped many people through both good and bad times with his integrity, keen mind, and compassionate nature. Having spent his whole childhood in Wilson, he was deeply passionate about the growth and development of his hometown. He took great pleasure in coaching his girls in soccer, rooting for the North Carolina Tar Heels, and curling up with a good book on the Morehead City porch.
He will always be regarded as the greatest father his girls could have had because of the kindness, compassion, and dedication he instilled in them. Before he was even born, his sister Romaine Clark Woodard and parents David Warren Woodard and Romaine Clark Woodard died.
