Not sure what to say?

This was truly "A Man For All Seasons" and my heart and prayers go out especially to Carol and all their people.

Over 20 years ago, Frank's great friend and mine, Jimmy Watts, encouraged me to visit Frank in hopes of building a new life and finding the right work. I was in a terrible, self-imposed state of abject humiliation and remorse.

I was 45 then. It was my season of deepest despair. Frank counseled me with love, compassion, and his great wisdom. The result was that I...

Frank was always an inspiration to me with his compelling smile and a positive word. I was blessed to share periodic time with him as our lockers were close together at the PDC.

WHAT A GOOD PURE SOUL! HE WILL BE MISSED BY EVERY LIFE HE TOUCHED.

I have many memories of the VES/EHS football games where Frank excelled. He was always a gentleman and this was true for his entire life!

When I came to Atlanta 30 years ago,
and did not know many folks,
Frank was friendly, kind, and tough
as hell on the squash court.
I will miss him.

Frank and cousin Kathleen Goodman about 1932

I didn't meet my cousin Frank until quite late in our lives, but I will always treasure the time I spent with Frank and Carol. I am proud to be part of their family.

Frank Goodman was a very special client, I enjoyed speaking with him on the phone, he always had a positive attitude and a good spirit. We will miss him dearly. Our prayers are with his family.

Mr. Goodman always greeted me with a smile and a firm handshake and always asked about my career and the status of my family. Whether it was dressed in a costume on New Year's Eve, strolling on the beach at Sea Island, or after a football game at Hampden-Sydney, Mr Goodman always made a point of saying hello. His graciousness was a complement to the entire Goodman family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of sorrow.

Frank Goodman was very accomplished in many areas of his life. His asperations toward "Squash" will always be remembered yearly with "The Goodman Cup" his spirit will always be with us.
