Also on Friday evening at the hotel, was a memorial for Danny Wooden who passed away last December at the age of 64 years. Danny grew up at Byemoor and it was his wish to have a party to remember him by at the hotel after he was gone. He pre-arranged and paid for the beverages for his friends and family who attended. Family members attending included his mother Lorraine Gendre, brothers Bruce and Rick and brother-in-law Brian Gendre (husband of the late Debbie Wooden).
