Gil Woodard, Jr., 63, of Bastain, Virginia departed this life on January 18, 2013, ending an extended struggle with cance. Gil was the son of G. E. Woodard, of Conway, N.C.

Woodard , of Rocky Mount, N.C; and a niece, Elizabeth H Woodard, of Greenville, N.C.
Gil, as he was known to his famiy and friends, was a native of Conway, N.C., but spent most of his adult life in Middlesex County, Virginia, where he practiced law for 33 years, including nine years as Town Attorney for Urbanna, Virginia, his wife's hometown. He loved to travel and have friends visit him at his home, so it is appropriate that a gathering will be held at the Deltaville house from 5-8 p.m., Saturday, January 26. In keeping with his wishes, no funeral services or ceremonies will be held. Memorial gifts for bladder cancer research or treatment would be appreciated..
Safe travels Gil... until we meet again.
