"THERE IS ANOTHER STAR IN HEAVEN"
STAR is sadden by the loss of one of their members. Charles "Woody" Woodbury who passed away on 3/14/16 unexpectedly. Woody
was one of the founders of the Senior Tour Auto Racers and served on
the Board of Directors for many years, until moving to Virginia. But
this did not stop Woody for being a part of STAR. He may have been
miles away but always was a active member of STAR. Woody
was a kind and gentle man who you could have a lot of fun with. He has
left us with many memories and we like to share them with you. Woody was known to pilot the #20 coupe for many years, until selling it. It
was so nice to see him visit STAR this pass summer at Claremont
Speedway where he caught up with all the members having a good time. It is hard to forget someone who gave so much to remember!
