Family-Placed Funeral Notice
GLENDORA J. GOODWIN 4/18/1925 to 5/28/2005 Glendora died peacefully Saturday, May 28, 2005 after a courageous battle with cancer. She was a 58 year resident of West Palm Beach after moving from Goshen, Indiana in 1946. She was preceded in death by her husband - Hilton M. (Dude) Goodwin. Survivors include daughters, Jane M. Goodwin of Leesburg, FL and Lori M. Goodwin of Riviera Beach, FL and sisters, Jeanne Scott of Goshen, IN and Jeri Clanton of Millersburg, IN. Before retiring in 1997 she was a dedicated and energetic employee of the Palm Beach Post Times for 41 years. Affectionately called GiGi by her coworkers, Glendora was quick with a smile and a quip and loved her Indiana Hoosiers. She was also the first "Granny Super Sleuth" for the Seniors Against Crime campaign for the State of Florida. She was also a member of the American Legion Post 268 Auxillary in Riviera Beach, FL. She touched the lives of all who knew her - was a loving mother, wife, sister and friend and will be missed by all. Glendora will be laid to rest with her husband at the Florida National Cemetery in Bushnell, FL. In lieu of flowers the family has asked that donations be made in Glendora's name to the Hospice of Lake & Sumter - 12300 Lane Park Road, Tavares, FL 32778.

Janie and Lori:
Oh, my! The years have flown since Northboro and Palm Beach High! There was an article in the Florida Times-Union, Jacksonville, about Dusty Rhodes (baseball coach UNF) yesterday that brought back Northboro years.
Truly sorry to hear about your mother. God speed.

Dear Lori and Janie,
I'm so sorry to read about your Mom's passing. I don't remember meeting her but I wish I had. She had to have been a fantastic Mom to raise such nice girls and so athletic, I might add. I do recall our memorable days at Northboro. My condolences to you.

To the family:
I just wanted to express my condolences to the family. GiGi was my co-worker for many years here at The Palm Beach Post. Despite all the grief my fellow editors and I gave her through the years by late pages, late changes, etc., GiGi was always professional and always ended the day with a smile. No matter how many times I would mark a proof asking her if the type was straight on the page, she would always check it with her pica pole or T-square and assure me that it was fine. I'll always think of GiGi whenever I see the Indiana Hoosiers basketball team on TV.
