Bryan A. Woods' Obituary
Bryan A. Woods, 75, of Vernon, CT, passed away on Sunday, October 12, 2025 at Hartford Hospital after a long struggle with lymphoma. He was born in Stafford, CT, son of the late Wilfred and Elsie (Scotta) Woods. Bryan had worked as a field technician for NCR for his whole career. He was a loving, devoted, and present husband and father, who volunteered his time to be involved in his children’s activities when they were younger. He served in many capacities in the Boy Scouts of America, including District Commissioner, and served as a color guard and cook in his children’s bagpipe band. Bryan was a lifelong HAM radio operator, holding his father’s call letters after Wilfred passed. In retirement, he was a student pilot before his health prompted him to trade the cockpit for his workshop, where he spent hours restoring antique radios. Bryan is survived by his loving wife of 50 years, Linda (Tompkins) Woods; two children, Nicole Woods and her husband Dr. Abu Kamruzzaman, and Anthony Woods; three grandchildren, Paxton, Corbin, and Meadow; two sisters, Elaine Lake and her husband Robert “Earle”, and Joyce Sadlak; and two sisters-in-laws, Chris Woods and Darlene Wright and her husband Jeff; several nieces and nephews; and many cousins. He was predeceased by his brother, Ron Woods. Calling hours will be held on Friday, October 17, 2025 from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM, with a funeral service to take place at 1:00 PM, at Introvigne Funeral Home, Inc., 51 East Main St., Stafford Springs, CT.
