Woodrow J. Veihl
Woodrow J. Veihl, 96, lifelong resident of Tower, died at home Tuesday December 29, 2015. Known to everyone as “Woody”, he was the son of Carl and Louise (Latsch) Veihl and was born November 8, 1919 in Tower.
Surviving Woody is his wife of 69 years, Arla Veihl of Tower; four sons, Gary (Marsha) of Cheboygan, Brian of Tower, Randy (Benita) of Onaway and Greg (Kaarina) of Tower; seven grandchildren; and 13 great-grandchildren; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
The private man that he was, it was Woody’s wish that no funeral or memorial service take place following his death. His final resting place will be in Tower at Forest Lawn Cemetery. Those planning an expression of sympathy please consider a donation in memory of Woody to Hospice of the Straits or to the Onaway United Methodist Church.
