Mrs. Wood was thrown through the windshield and suffered a broken neck and internal injuries.

She was born Aug 12, 1914, in Wayne County, the daughter of Sylvester and Addie Dickey Withrow.

Surviving are her husband; two sons, Donnie, medical student in Chicago, and Dougie at home; one daughter, Mrs Brenda Hiatt of Bluford; five sisters, Mrs Bernice Warren, Mrs Hazel Esmon and Mrs. Sylvia Richardson of Wayne City, Mrs. Una Gregory of Mendota and Mrs. Irma Imel of E. Alton and two brothers, Orman of Fairfield and Lester of Wayne City.
