Goldie P. Paine

Many years ago, when I was a teenager living with my parents, Charlie and Beth Printz, in Charles Town, WV, I met Ned. This was in the mid-1960's, and Ned was involved in establishing the Badger Fire Extinguisher plant in nearby Ranson, WV. He stayed with us many times over those few years, and he, then Goldie, became great friends with my parents, and I and later my wife were their friends as well.They were a truly exceptional couple and had endured many hard times before their success with...

I was so sorry to hear about Goldie's death and that of Ned earlier this year. They were a great couple with whom to work when I was involved with them at Amerex in the UK. My condolences to all the family.

Goldie was a remarkable woman who made everyone's life brighter by her presence. She was a pioneer for career women and an inspiration to everyone. Her magic personality shined wherever she was. My thoughts are with her wonderful family.

Thank you Goldie for being such a kind friend over the years to all your international friends. The love you gave us all will not be forgotten, and you and Ned will be forever in our minds and prayers. Sleep in peace

With Goldies death comes the passing of a great couple who had a BIG impact on this community and many individuals. She and Ned "left their mark" and that is more than most. They will be greatly missed.

I was very saddened to hear of Goldie's passing. My father, Grover Wilson (who passed away last year at age 80), worked with Goldie and Ned at the Badger plant and later helped set up the plant in Trussville. As a teenager I had the opportunity to meet Mrs. Paine several times and always found her to be a very gracious lady. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.

So sorry to hear of Goldie's passing. She was a sweet, caring woman who truly cared so much for others.

Dear Buck and Serita, I wish you and your family that special peace that only God can give. You are both very special to me, and Goldie was a great humanitarian to this community. You are constantly in my thoughts.

May the God of all comfort give you the strength and ability to endure the difficult days and weeks ahead. Psalms 83:18.
