Mr. Woodruff died out on the road in his hotel room. He knew God was there all of the time. He lived a good life and I miss him so much. My son traveled with the Sensational Nightengales and wrote an article about the group when he worked with the Atlanta Constitution. I still have that article and will continue to keep it. He did a good job working with them and they were so nice to him. Loved the group.
Mr. Bill Woodruff must be singing in heaven now. Oh how I miss them, McNair also. Hope Horace Thompson and Joe Wallace are still living. I personally met them when my son wrote an article on them when he worked for the Atlanta Constitution years ago.
I so appreciate this post. It took me years to find this. I am Willie Woodruff Jr., the son of Bill Woodruff. He was my everything and not to have him still hurts daily. He left such a great legacy behind and I thank you for helping me celebrate his life and legacy. Please contact me if you would like to contribute concert footage to a video tribute I am putting together. Thank you again for your tribute. May God continue to bless and keep you and all the fans of my father's music!
If you have never seen the Nightingales minister you have truly missed something special...their music is so simple but it's powerful!!! There is truly a message in the music!!!
I hosted them annually at my church in Columbia, SC. Many people did not know that as rich as Bro. Woodruff's baritone voice was, he also sang first tenor at some spots.
i know man i like quartet singing but these guys.....it's...something about them. There songs are touching. They was back va a few weeks ago and they guys that went told me i missed a treat!
Sir, I loved your dad. I LOVE this group! They are my all time favorites! I have met these guys many times, and they were always and truly, the 4 Gentlemen of Song. I miss your dad and Calvert. I have so many memories of them, when they came to Columbia, South Carolina, to sing at the Rehoboth Church. Your dad was a wonderful and really nice gentleman. Keep his legacy alive, please. I would love to see that video you are putting together to honor Bro. Woodruff.
