"Shirley Ray Wood, a man with a name like that either has to hide or be strong. The latter is the case with "S.R." - my friend of 45 years. Brilliant, articulate, creative, people-loving, never met a stranger, decent, yet with a charming sense of humor, impeccably dressed, widely traveled, well read and delightful to listen to...and impossible to forget. He is a great dinner speaker, lecturer, whether to large groups or small. Need someone to address a subject, speak to your banquet, or convention? Here is your man, the audience will be entertained, but each will be a better person for having heard him. "
