On Friday, September 19, 2025, Woodman Edmands supported the John C. Duranceau Memorial Scholarship Fund by participating in the annual golf tournament held at Biddeford S**o Country Club. John Duranceu was a well-known Biddeford native, who passed away suddenly in 2010 at the age of 48. He left a wife and two teenage children at the time along with several siblings. His family initiated a scholarship in his memory and as a true testament to John, the scholarship has continued to grow, and the annual tournament sells out with teams on wait lists. Participating were John’s lifelong friend, managing partner Harry Center, along with Tony Serpico, Wayne Pike, and Tim Stebbins, who also were friends with John.
