Norman Edward Wood graduated from Auburn University with a degree in Electrical Engineering. Fun fact: I am a 3rd generation graduate from Auburn, spanning a hundred years! After retiring from International Paper he decided he couldn't just stay at home all day. He studied up, applied and beat out all the other applicants for a top job at Degussa. He is plant electrical engineer and deals with Electrical Reliability. Loves to describe things using diagrams and will draw you a picture of what he is describing on just about anything.

Victoria Bacon Barney Wood went to the University of Colorado and studied film and photography. She has been associate producer of several movies, most notably, the cult classic Porkys. She left the film industry and moved home and had a shop in Birmingham of sewn childrens' gifts and then later back to Mobile to explore the travel industry. She managed a support group for AmEx Travel for many years. She is currently the manager of my daddy and has been for going on 20 years :) She taught me to sew when I was 8. I still sew today.
