I remember the first time I saw Ms. Goodson almost 4 years ago, I thought she was the coolest stylish woman I had seen, so inventively dressed. She became a part of my routine at work, always in a new outfit as bright and beautiful as ever. I feel grateful to have met her and honored for even the opportunity for that in my life. I will always remember the light she carried around. May she be at rest. My sympathies to her family, my heart is with you as you navigate a new life without her physical presence. However, she gave enough light to truly create an everlasting presence in the lives of others and I hope it is brought along and felt through the rest of your lives. I know I will be graced of her spirit and thoughts of her for the rest of mine.

Thank you and all the best,
Alyssa L.
