FAYETTEVILLE, WV (WOAY) – A local World War II veteran celebrates his 100th birthday.
Friends and family gathered to celebrate a milestone for Robert “Bob” Woollard as he celebrates his 100th birthday on Thursday. A Fayetteville resident for more than 60 years, Woollard was very active in the community since 1951 when he first came to Fayetteville.
