Many wonderful memories are held close to our hearts! We were so fortunate to have such a loving family living in our neighborhood, for most of our lives! We always knew we were welcome to visit Mrs. Goodson, anytime! She always made us all feel so welcome! Her children, grandchildren, etc. are a true reflection of the love that was prevalent in the Goodson family! Love, and heartfelt sympathy, is extended to the entire "Goodson" family.
