GREGORY LEWIS GOODE Sr.

Greg was my friend for 46 years . We worked together at the railroad for 37 years when I retired. He was the best friend anyone could have. I miss him dearly.

I first met him in 5th grade when he was playing as Santa for the Santa's workshop at the school. I knew him for 6 years. He was my favorite person, he was like a grandpa to me and we loved each other as family. I will always miss him. I'm happy he had a good life. <3

He was a wonderful friend. Loved him very much.

Mr. Goode was a true joy to be around. He entertained at one of my daughter's birthday parties and many others we attended. Children flocked to him. His zest for fun was contagious and he was surely one of a kind. My condolences to the family. -Marlene Smith

Mr. Goode was the best kind of person. He was warm, kind, and genuine. I knew him through his work with children. I am a member of Crabbe Elementary PTO and Mr. Goode did balloons and face painting for so many of our events. He was always the most popular guy in the room as the children always stayed huddled around his booth. He was so amazing with the kids... always dressed in character and always being silly with them. And he was so selfless...never asking for proper compensation for...

I just now found out about his passing, and I'm so sorry to hear this. He came up to Woodlands when I was the activity director, and I was always blown away at how he interacted with my healthcare residents :) He made them laugh so much and made them feel so good. Then I also got to see him at a few events with my little girl, and he always was such a kind and uplifting person. I'm so sorry for your loss, and I know he will truly be missed by so many. He certainly brought joy to everyone with...

My family loved "Mr. Greg". He always made us smile and his talent and the love he gave will always remain with us and everyone he met. He will be missed.

Amazing man with an incredible heart and enough love for all children he's made smile.
