April 28, 1939-Nov. 10, 2024


Donald E. Wood, 85, formerly of Fort Recovery, passed away on Sunday, Nov. 10, 2024, at Wesleyan Health and Rehabilitation Center in Marion, Indiana.

He was born on April 28, 1939, in Cleveland, Ohio, to the late Edward and Ruth (Jenisek) Wood.

In addition to his parents, Donald was preceded in death by his brother, Richard Wood; his brothers-in-law, Phil Ahlers and Gary Lockwood; and his special companion, Martha Carlin.

Donald is survived by his daughters, Angie (Josh) Morris of Potterville, Michigan, Donette Wood of Barboursville, West Virginia, and Lynette Wood Phillips of Dacula, Georgia; his grandchildren, Lucy Morris, Nala Morris, Andrew (Angel) Phillips and Grant Phillips; his great-grandson, Milo Phillips; his siblings, Barbara Lockwood of New Mexico, Ralph (Debbie) Wood of Missouri and Carolyn Huntsman of New Mexico; his sister-in-law, Virginia Wood of Fort Recovery; and numerous nieces and nephews.

After graduating from Fort Recovery High School, Donald enlisted in the United States Navy in 1957 and served his country until he was honorably discharged in 1961. Upon returning home, he worked for Huffy's in Celina, and then later utilized his business skills and creative talents to run his own business. Later in life, Donald began driving Amish families around the country, which was something he thoroughly enjoyed doing.

Donald will be laid to rest during a private graveside service at Marion National Cemetery in Marion, Indiana.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that you do an act of kindness for a veteran in memory of Donald.
