fought the good fight I have finished the race I have kept the faith. 2

how we live and love and how we spend our dash. Mollie Mae Woods will say,

MARIE VIRGINIA WOOD
Marie Virginia Wood departed this life on October 11, 2020, at the University
of Virginia Medical Center after a 13-year battle with Alzheimer's disease.
She was born on December 14, 1926, to Anna Davis in Augusta County, Virginia,
and was raised by her grandparents, Henry and Josie Morris on Buck Mountain.
To remember Marie is to remember the little things that made her unique: how
she wore khakis and a polo shirt to bathe her poodle, how she had her hair
coiffed every weekend, how she grew roses like weeds, and how she drove a
sleek silver car. Marie "Nana" was a woman of decorum and grace, who overcame
her meager upbringing and went on to become a leading realtor with Montague
Miller and remained as such in Charlottesville for many years. In the family,
we will fondly remember her for her multiple sets of china, for her love of
Siamese cats, Sinatra, and the color pink, and for always putting raisins in
everything. We will choose not to think of the disease that stole her away
from us—that took her mind, the soul of who she was, and left her body. We
will forever remember her as the beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and woman
of tenacity that she was. Marie was preceded in death by her husband, Raymond
Wood of Charlottesville and her daughter, Patricia Wood of Ft. Lauderdale. She
is survived by her son, William Wood Sr. of Scottsville; her sisters, Betty
Drumheller and Peggy Walton; a brother, Henry Ashby Hicks; and her
grandchildren, Lori Wood, Jaki Jones, William Wood Jr., and Rebecca Wood
Monhollen. Also surviving her are her great-granddaughters, Sommer Frank,
Faith Wood, Karis Monhollen, and Rowen Monhollen. Special thanks to her
caregivers of many years: Ann Andrews and Charlotte (Pete) Lawson who both
faithfully provided patient and loving care for the duration of Marie's
struggle with Alzheimer's. A special thanks also to Ann Allen, Marie's
hairdresser for many years. Visitation will be held from 4 until 6 p.m.
Saturday, October 17, 2020, at Hill and Wood Funeral Home, Charlottesville.
Graveside services will be held at 2 p.m., Sunday, October 18, 2020, at Holly
Memorial Gardens in Charlottesville. To plant trees in memory, please visit
