A house RESOLUTION

 

To express profound sorrow upon the passing of Woodrow "Woody" Windham and to extend the deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.

 

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn that Woodrow "Woody" Windham passed away on the afternoon of April 15, 2024, at the age of eighty-three; and

 

Whereas, Woody was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on the Pearl Harbor Naval Base on June 21, 1940. He was the first son, second child, of Woodrow Windham and Sarah Windham; and

 

Whereas, at a very young age, Woody revealed a passion for music. When he was a child, his mother noticed him talking into a pencil and told him if he loved it so much he should search for a job as a DJ. Taking his mother's advice, Woody later began his sixty-year radio career at WDAR in Darlington County. He was also on air at WCOS-AM & FM, WNOK, WZLD, WTCB, WOMG, the Breeze Radio Network, and iWoody Radio; and

 

Whereas, a generous man, Woody gladly raised money for various charities including The American Heart Association, Woody's War on Cancer, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Colon Cancer Awareness, and many local charities. He also never turned down a chance to go eat lunch with any kids who called into his show. He voiced a generation of music for many people and was well loved in the community. As much as he loved radio, his greatest love was his wife and family; and

 

Whereas, Woody was preceded in death by his sister, Mary Francis Windham Kohler, and both parents, Woodrow and Sarah Windham. He is survived by his three brothers, James Windham, Leon Windham, and Paul Windham; his wife, Jean Windham; daughters, Wendy Windham, Jennifer Windham, and MacKenzie Windham; granddaughters, Sharon Austin, Taylor Winn, and Rowan Windham; great-granddaughters, Melinda and Cheyenne Hinnant; as well as many nephews and nieces. He was loved by all and will be greatly missed. Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express profound sorrow upon the passing of Woodrow "Woody" Windham and extend the deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of Woodrow "Woody" Windham.
