James Woods was a 17-year-old Streetsboro High School Senior who ran year-round. Not because he had to, but because he wanted to. Aside from running, James was also a person that people looked forward to being around. His smile was infectious and wherever James went, he made people laugh and smile.

Unfortunately, this beautiful life was cut short on November 19, 2022.

Please help us celebrate James and support his parents foundation, The Do It For James Foundation, and their mission.
