Fr. Edson J. Wood

West Point, FRIENDS

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Lee Skiver, '07, Piper on April 15, 2014:

I had the privilege to know Fr Wood during my days as a cadet and member of the Pipe and Drum band. Two things I remember well were his patience and the calming effect Fr Wood seemed to possess simply through his presence. Despite the hectic nature in which life usually presents itself at West Point, Fr Wood's words and deeds always helped to focus our efforts and smooth the rough seas. I will forever be grateful to have known him and for his selfless service to West Point, and particularly the pipers and drummers. Be thou at peace.
