Default Steve Goodman

On 10/27/23 Steve passed away. He enjoyed this forum very much and we know he would want to let all of the folks he chatted with to know. He is survived by his loving wife Joyce and 5 children: "Mandy", Michael, Betsy, Melisa and Kevin. Thank you for the entertainment and engagement in these forums. Steve loved to learn about his passions, Harely's no exception to that. Our father was an avid golfer and biker. He spent the last few years of his retirement out having adventures on that bike. He saw the majority of the country on many long road trips as a solo rider. Not bad for a 71 year old man...

The family will occasionally check in, feel free to share any memories you may have had of our Dad. Thank you for being part of his life.

Steve on the left. "Burma guy" on the right at Mt. Rushmore 2019.

May he rest in peace as he travels in that undiscovered country from once born, no traveler returns.

As he rests in the the comfort of Gods embrace may he ride with the Sun & Wind at his back on a smooth and curvy asphalt highway in the glorious roads of Heaven.
