Steven Gordon Goodell
If you are reading this then that means that I, on Wednesday, May 19, 2021, have moved along...”passing away” never did sit well with me. My tourist travel visa has expired and I’m profoundly saddened by the loss of my travel partners Deb and Victoria. My cremation has already taken place.
I was born October 13, 1954, the son of Richard and Marilyn Goodell in Duluth, Minnesota. I graduated class of 1973 from Fairmont High School. Attended SMSU for 2 years, MSU for 1 year and graduated JAVTI (Jackson, MN) in Sales and Marketing. I spend the next 25 years selling custom flexible packaging in the Midwest. In 2006, I moved to Canada and married everything I had ever wanted, and then some in 2008.
Steve is survived by his wife Deb and step-daughter Victoria, daughter Erin Farland (Ryan), sons Michael (Brittney), Brent and Christopher, granddaughter Kayla Farland and grandson Wyatt Farland. Steve is also survived by his sister Jo Goodell-Holmes, nephew Greg Holmes (Elsa), niece Charito Teagarden (Joshua), and several great nieces and nephew. He is predeceased in death by his parents, brother David, brother-in-law Alan Goodell-Holmes and his grandparents.
A Celebration of Life Service at Dods & McNair Funeral Home, Chapel & Reception Centre, and Committal Service at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Orangeville, Ontario, will be held at a future date.
In lieu of flowers, a memorial consideration of a donation to the Caledon Lions Clubs, or Caledon Meals on Wheels would be greatly appreciated.
I’m on my way knowing our paths will meet again.
Amen...Amen...Amen
Steve
A tree will be planted in memory of Steven in the Dods & McNair Memorial Forest at the Island Lake Conservation Area, Orangeville.
