Larry Woods Sr., 61, of Prescott, Arizona, passed away April 12, 2018, as
his home, surrounded by his family. He was born on Jan. 20, 1957, in Toledo,
Ohio, to Art and Clara Woods. There he worked for the family business, Woods

In 1987, Larry and his first wife, Mary, moved to Arizona, where they raised
their four kids together: Larry Jr., Stefanie, Chaz and Jacob.

himself with making lasting customer relationships at his meat counter.

Over the years he helped and organized many charity and sponsorship events,
including ones for his kids’ soccer teams, Cowboy Poets, rodeos, and a
breakfast benefit for the Granite Mountain Hotshots. He was involved in the
up and coming Perkins Meat Processing, where he worked until passing.
