Abraham Wood

Abraham J. Wood was born August 15, 1979, and grew up in the Columbus, Ohio area. Standing over six feet tall with blue eyes and brown hair, he was a young man at the threshold of adulthood when his life ended on March 24, 2000, at age 20. Public records preserved by state law-enforcement partners identify him by name and date of birth and note his connection to the King Edward Court East neighborhood of Columbus.

Though formal public tributes or a published obituary have not been located in accessible online archives, the available official record affirms Abraham as a real person with family and ties in his community. At twenty, he would have had hopes and plans typical of someone his age — relationships with family and friends, daily routines, and ordinary moments that made up his life. These everyday human details, though seldom recorded in public databases, are what give a life its meaning.

Abraham’s loss was sudden and left those who knew him with grief and unanswered questions. While law-enforcement listings focus on the facts surrounding his death, this remembrance honors Abraham first as a person: a son born in 1979 whose life mattered to people who loved him. May this page stand as a small act of care — recognizing his existence, asserting his name, and preserving his memory with dignity. If you have family memories, photographs, or stories you are willing to share with a memorial page, those contributions help restore the fuller picture of who Abraham was beyond the brief lines of an official record.
