Scouter, ham-radio operator and great-great-grandfather Leonard "Woody"
Woodward, of Provo, died Christmas Day. He was 99 years old.

Woodward made local and national news in 2008, when immigration issues kept
him apart from his third wife, Doreen Buttery, who couldn't re-enter the
country after they honeymooned in her native Canada. (His first wife died in
1986 and his second in 2005.)

Woodward was the nation's oldest active Boy Scout. In February, at a party
in Orem celebrating the local council's 100 years of scouting, Woodward
shared memories of collecting merit patch badges in the 1920s.

He worked a lot of 20 meter DX and had a lot of ham history right in his
shack.

He brought color, laughter and lots of history where ever he went.

73 Woody and RR on your QRT.

Will send a OBT as soon as I get one.
