Not sure what to say?

John was our first rugby friend, and was true to the end. He taught me to pass. Our souls ache missing his humor and laughter. He will always live in our hearts.

Martha and family, John lit up the room with his wit and laughter! He saw the fun side of things, and that especially showed when you Martha and he were telling stories. For him, the glass was always more than half full! It was our joy to know him. Love, Love Craig and Mary Jane

My sincere condolences to Martha and family. Some of my fondest memories are hours spent with the Goodales. A remarkable family! While I have not seen John in many years, his memory and that of his brother , Tad, are etched in my memory.
