My deepest condolences to the Godding family. It has been decades since I had the opportunity to know this wonderful family back in Hawaii.

Colonel Richard L. Jones USA Ret

George,
You're now "Over the Bar and Out to Sea." I wish you God's blessings and fair winds.
Thank you for enriching my life and those of our ASA comrades.

My sincere condolences to the Godding family. He was a true Gentleman and an outstanding General Officer. It was an Honor to serve in his Command.

I worked with General Godding at Arlington Hall. We actually met the first time at a reception on the roof of the Vietnamese Officer Club (I think) in 1969 in Saigon. He hired me at BDM when I left active duty. George was a "Professional Gentleman" in everything he did. It was a pleasure to work for him. My memories of him are all great. My sympathies to his family. I share their loss.

I worked for/with Gen Godding for many years. I have always considered him to be "Mr. ASA" Len
