Brandon Woods

I miss you Brandon and love you with all my heart.

Brandon was the voicer for our 2005, Opus 43 organ at Second Presbyterian Church, Roanoke, VA. His talent was unbelievable, although he never displayed any ego about his ability to hear the most subtle differences in sound. For someone who was so technically gifted, he was such a people-person, and cared deeply about the quality of his work. We will miss Brandon so very much, and extend our deepest sympathy to his wife and family.

My most heartfelt sympathies and prayers to Linda and to all of Brandon's family. Brandon was colleague, teacher, and friend from my earliest days in organbuilding. All of us who were blessed to know him will never forget his generous nature, his lively sense of humor, and his manifold artistic accomplishments. Happy trails, old friend, and may the angels welcome you.

I will miss Brandon so much! I first met Brandon in 1983 when he was in my home town of Danville, IL working on the Moller pipe organ at St. James United Methodist Church. At the time he was employed by the E. H. Holloway Corporation of Indianapolis, IN. We remained friends through the years, and I have many great memories of long discussions about pipe organs in his voicing room at Goulding & Wood, as well as a few (not-so-clean) jokes! I was always amazed at his razor-sharp hearing and voicing skills as well as his knowledge of organ literature. To Linda and his family, I send my deepest sympathies. I know he is hard at work voicing the greatest pipe organ of all in the Heavenly Kingdom.

A great man has passed and we will not see his like again.
