OAKLAND ~ Patricia Ann “Patti” Wood, 72, died unexpectedly at Maine General Medical Center and went to be with her Lord on Monday, April 9, 2018. She was born in Waterville on December 22, 1945, the daughter of E. Harlan and Elsie (French) Snow. Patti graduated from Williams High School in Oakland before marrying Dr. David R. Wood, of Readfield, on September 19, 1964. Sweet Patti was a help-meet to me in all things in the true Biblical sense of the Word. We were true partners in all that was done. She designed and we built a beautiful medical building together and a beautiful practice full of wonderful people. She graciously ministered spiritually and prayed with many of the patients. She designed a wonderful home in Texas and she was a full partner and participant in our ranching operation. This home was her pride and joy. She also co-founded our Ministry; Eastern Gate Ministries International. She has played a key role in this ministry from the first day until the day she moved to Heaven. Sweet, sweet Patti I love you so much and miss you so already. Patti was preceded in death by her father and a sister, Sharon Staples. She is survived by her mother, Elsie Dority, of Waterville; her husband of nearly 54 years, Dr. David R. Wood, of Oakland; her daughter, Stacie Dawson and her husband, Brian, of San Antonio, TX; two sons, Jereme Wood and his wife, Jennifer, of San Antonio, TX and David Wood Jr. and his wife, Bassia, of Israel; a sister, Joyce Stevens and her husband, Eugene, of Oakland; her brother, Elbridge Snow of Somerville; seven grandchildren, Kaitlyn and Logan Estridge, Jacquelyn Dawson, Jeffrey and Cooper Wood, Jennifer Stevens and Nathaniel Wood; three great grandchildren; as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins.
