Thank God to take him

I am so sorry to hear about this loss. I remember one of the most anticipated milestones in my life was graduating from "Skateland" and going to "The Vermilion Room"! Thank you Goggins family countless positive memories and good times. I'm wishing you hope in the midst of sorrow, comfort in the midst of pain.

Our sons were good friends in high school. Rest in peace.

As I hope that comfort of the loss of your love one, Trunnis was more of a father figure to me than a boss. I worked at the Skateland for many years and actually watched his lovely daughters grow up into beautiful women. I miss them all. My sincere prayers go out to the Goggins family. [email protected]

Dear Goggins family,
I fondly remember great times at Skateland; which was one of the few places my father would allow me to frequent, only because of your father's care and concern for the well-being of young people. "Mr. Trunnis," as I was taught to call him, was a great man, an innovator, and entrepreneur.

May God comfort the Goggins family as only He can....We will miss you Trunnis especially the wisdom that you shared so freely. Marlene Parks-Butler, Stone Mountain, GA.

BLESSINS TO TRUNNIS FAMILY, HE WILL BE MISSED, SKATELAND WAS THE PLACE TO BE, THEN WHEN I GOT OLDER, THE VERMILLION ROOM, WHERE YOU GO UP TO GET DOWN.

Trunnis you will be a friend always

Sue, this Sean, Silk's cousin...I send my condolences to you and family...He was a GREAT man! Take care and be strong!!
