Walt Goodwin Jr. Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 20, 2013.
"Goody" will always be remembered as a great friend who could make a room "light up" with his humorous inpersonations and comical stories.Walt will be sorely missed by all his friends and associates that he had made in the Los Angeles steel warehouse community. Goody never turned a friend in need away, as he was always generous with advice, money and his wildly funny sense of humor.Our deepest sympathies go out to his family, especially to his cherished mother, Geraldine, and his beloved daughters Courtney and Lauren as well as their mother, Claudia. May you rest in peace, brother, as we will all join you "in a minute" for that "great party" in paradise.
