Mabel S. Wood, known for humor
Mabel Stafford Wood was delightfully mischievous. Sometimes there was method to her mischievousness. That's how she met her husband.
During World War II, she worked at a shipyard in Savannah, Ga., building Liberty Ships.
"She saw a good-looking man there she wanted to meet," said Mrs. Wood's daughter, Elaine Wallace. "She dropped her box of tools in the ocean so he would come help her. He did, and they eventually wound up getting married."
Mrs. Wood, 76, of Manassas, Ga., died Monday.
She was the mother of Cincinnati Post employee Wanda Millians and the mother-in-law of Cincinnati Post photo and graphics editor Rick Millians.
Mrs. Wood's family was amused by the ways she found to have her husband of 53 years, Royce Wood, rush to her side.
"She pretended swooning so he could scoop her up in his arms," said Mrs. Wallace. "She was a real Scarlett O'Hara."
Mrs. Wood, a history buff and avid gardener, was particularly fond of violets and hummingbirds.
Besides helping build ships during World War II, Mrs. Wood was a fire-tower watcher for the Georgia Forestry Department and worked at Madison Throwing Co. in Milledgeville, where she lived 30 years before she and her husband, who survives her, retired to Manassas in 1986.
