...zestful a person as Woody basking in retirement. He probably would have chosen to be still in full harness at the end. And he would have reminded us mourners of the title of that cantata by his earthly god Bach, which he loved, performed , wrote about, and recorded: "Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit...
