Not sure what to say?

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. I had the honor of being coached by Mr. Goodall at Hoban. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of sorrow.

My deepest sympathies to the Goodall family. Living in the Houston area, I just became aware of Tom's passing. Although it has been some 23 years since I last saw Tom at a Hoban reunion, I remember his dry wit, warm personality and tremendous outlook on life. He touched so many lives and will be missed.

Our deepest condolences go out to the entire Goodall family. My wife and kids got a taste of the incredible person that was Mr. Goodall this past summer in Hilton Head meeting over ice cream. Even my littlest (3 years old) months later would ask about the 'tall, bald coach and friend' we met at the beach. Tom was such a special man that could impact lives even with very brief interactions. To know him is to have truly been blessed.

although i only saw tom once in the last 40+ years(at our class reunion in 1987),i will always remember him as a great guy.he was in my class at st.paul's from k-8th,and in many classes at hoban.he will be missed.

My sympathies to the Goodall family.
I new Tom professionaly. I worked for LTV Steel Tom was my GE rep. He was a joy to work with, I all ways looked forward to his visits. We talked of work a little and family alot. I will miss him.

I feel so fortunate that I got the opportunity to get to know Coach Goodall in the last few years since we worked together with Hoban athletes. I remember getting a chance to be at the CYO Hall of Honor Award Banquet several years ago when he was placed in the Hall. It was a great night.

Most recently, I have a great memory from summer of 2009 with Tom. On a very beautiful early summer day, we got the opportunity to visit at the Annual CYO Golf Outing following the dinner at...

Carol and Family
I just wanted to offer my sympathy, I took care of him in the hospital, what an outstanding man and individual. He fought the fight with dignity.

Dear Carol, Gina and Bob, Alex, Andrew and Lily,
Words cannot express how sorry we for your loss. Our heart aches for you, Carol. Tom was more of a brother than a brother-in-law.We grew even closer to both of you this past summer with our "dinners" together after each chemo treatment. We are blessed that we had him in our lives. He was such great Uncle to our children and always had interest in what was going on in their lives. They were blessed they had him in their lives. Tom has...

Our deepest sympathy to the Goodall family on your loss - you are all in our thoughts and prayers. What a wonderful man who did so much for so many.
