Dr. Woody Kennedy, of The Plastic Surgery Group, died on Monday at the UAB Hospital in Birmingham, Ala., following an illness.

Plastic Surgery Group President Dr. Jason Rehm said, “We appreciate the support for Dr. Kennedy and his family during this difficult time. We are devastated by this loss.

"Dr. Kennedy joined the practice in 1997. His expertise transformed lives and his sense of humor and larger-than-life personality were part and parcel of the Group. Our thoughts are with Dr. Kennedy’s wife Carrie, and their daughters Lydia and Mary Davis.”

He was the first Erlanger Chief of Staff to serve on the Erlanger Board of Trustees after the County Commission voted to amend the Authority Act in 2012.  He served from July to December 2012.

Arrangements are pending.
