Woody Diswood Jr., 77, of Waterflow, passed away Saturday, Feb. 14, 2015. He was born to the late Woody and Beatrice Diswood Sr. He graduated from Navajo Methodist Mission in 1956. Immediately after graduation he entered the U.S. Marine Corps. He trained in San Diego, Calif. After his service, Woody trained to operate heavy equipment, which he utilized in helping build major highways in New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Colorado and California. After road construction he worked for the Utah Mine, in different capacities, including dragline operator. Woody married the late Mary Notah Diswood and settled in Waterflow. Woody was a loving father, husband, grandfather and brother who was always giving and compassionate. Family and the importance of education were priorities that he taught his children. After his retirement he continued with his passion of construction and operating machinery through volunteering. He spent many summers "blading" the roads in the Chuska Mountains. He enjoyed being with family, gardening, doing The Daily Times crossword puzzles, fishing, reading western books, landscaping around his home, and making home improvements. Woody's greatest pride was in his children and grandchildren.
