Woodruff will ride in a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro convertible at the front of the parade.
Woodruff was 6 weeks old when his parents, Ned and Ruth, brought him home to live at the farmhouse of his paternal grandparents at the southwest corner of Alton Darby Creek and Roberts roads in Brown Township.
Woodruff’s father was an infant when the farmhouse was purchased in 1919.
In 1962, Woodruff sold the farmhouse, which still stands, to another family and built a new house on Roberts Road, just west of Alton Darby Creek Road, where he and his wife still live.
One of his grandchildren also lives adjacent to him.
