Maw-Maw will be missed by so many. Memories of a short framed, soft spoken, kind spirited, happy, Christian woman are what come to my mind. It's comforting to know she is singing with the angels in heaven. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers in the coming days as you lay her earthly body to rest.

Mrs Goodson was one of the sweetest people I've ever known. She leaves an awesome legacy: kindness. She taught many without ever using any words. Just a twinkle from her eyes would melt your heart. I'm glad the Lord let her have one more birthday with us. I look forward to seeing her in Heaven. Like many others I loved her. My love and prayers to Judie, Johnny, Ronnie and Charles and all the Goodson family.
