David Paul Wood

He was the beloved son of his mother, Catherine Genn, of Harwich, Massachusetts, and his father, John Wood, of Hancock, Maine. And the cherished brother of sister, Jaimie Perry-Hudson, of Montclair, Virginia, and brother, Christopher Wood, of Hancock, Maine.

David grew up in Hancock, Maine. His love of sports was apparent from the earliest of age, adopting the Bruins, Celtics, New England Patriots and -needing one bone to pick with his father- the Yankees, as his teams. Throughout his life, he could recount how each game went, particularly which calls the refs messed up. He could cite you statistics and predictions faster than any sports broadcaster. And there was almost never a day he was not donning apparel from one of his teams.

His loyalty did not end with the fan bases he was a part of, but encompassed every area of his life. His deep love for his family, his friends, his church community. His dedication to Centerville Pies, where he faithfully showed up for work for nearly 10 years, always with a smile and a song to share with his coworkers and pride in the products he produced.

His loyalty quickly became resolute and steadfast to his darts teams. After moving to Cape Cod, he found a love of darts, joining both an on and off Cape league. He went to great lengths to be at every match to not just perform his best, but also to motivate, encourage, and bring joy to all who were with him.

Wherever David went, his smile, his love and his massive heart were sure to shine through. He was a beacon of God’s light and love in this world. Whether you saw him smiling & waving as he strolled Hyannis, welcoming you to his congregation, dancing to his praise music, organizing football squares at Thanksgiving, loving on your pets, taking in a Cape Cod league baseball game, coordinating who’s next up to the dart board, or recounting the latest sports game, his presence will be missed in this world.

A service will be held on Thursday, May 4th at 3 o’clock pm at The Cause Church, 232 Main St, Hyannis, MA 02601. Proceeding the service, there will be a gathering at the Moose Lodge, 769 MA-28, South Yarmouth, MA 02664.

For those who wish, in lieu of flowers, David’s family would appreciate donations to Community Connections, Inc. (https://communityconnectionsinc.org) who’s services were supporting David in living joyfully and independently in this world.
