      <p>Roy Lee Hood was born August 16, 1937, to Harvey Leonias Hood and Eunice Edgerton Hood, in Goldsboro, NC. He attended Campbell Junior College, earned a 1-year Business Administration Certificate and continued his Campbell education to earn an ABA degree in 1957. He then graduated from Carson-Newman College in Jefferson City, Tennessee in 1959 with a double major in sociology and psychology and a double minor in religion and Greek. After graduating, Hood started a Baptist mission in Tennessee and also acted as a principal and teacher. He married Barbara Jean Russell on August 13, 1961, and they moved to Wake Forest, NC, where they both graduated from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1964. In addition to his pastoring experiences, Hood served his community in a variety of capacities including student supervisor, counseling, and teaching.
