Mr. Goodrum, I am so blessed to have known you during my childhood. I would always be at your house playing with my "play-cousin" Cortney! You are one of the nicest people, and most hospitable people that I have ever met in my life. I know that life does not last forever, but it is difficult to see loved ones leave. May God bless your family as they mourn your lose, and I know God is happy to have his angel back home. WE will forever keep the memories in our hearts of you. I have so many stories, but I will leave it at that. LOVE YOU! Toya
