Shelly,
Jerry and I were so sorry to hear about Joey. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
Joe was one of my longest (64 years) and closest friends. Even through many months of illness, we still made an effort to visit and talk, at least on the phone, as often as possible. He was a good friend and will be missed. I am saddened that I will be unable to get back to RI for the funeral. Shelly, Jamie and Seth, you are all in our thoughts and prayers.
To the Goodman families-Sorry for your loss. Joe was a stand up guy and friend to the family, especially to my dad. Rest in peace. Morris & Gail Bochner
My thoughts go out to the entire Goodman family, particularly Shelly, who was one of my closest friends growing up. Many good times were spent at the Goodman house. Joey will be missed by all.
I’ve known Joey a long time and golfed along side of him in the Touro golf league. He was competive, enjoyed the game and was always good company. I know he was saddened when he no longer could play. He will be missed.
Dear Shelly and family. I am sorry to hear of the passing of cousin Joey. I know he fought long and hard to stay well. I send my deepest sympathies to all of you. Thinking of you at this time – Greg Goodman
Shelly, we are so very sorry for your loss. Joe was a great guy and will be missed. Barry always enjoyed golfing with him. We are thinking of you and your family.
Larry, Jeff and I send our thoughts and prayers to you and your family. We go back many many years and we do have some great memories of our childhood when our families got together.
Love,
Joan Baker Durning
DEAR JERRY : SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR BROTHERS DEATH. JOANNA AND I WERE AWAY. OUR CONDOLENCES TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
Shelly,
My condolences on Joe’s passing. Only having met through Redwood Lodge nearly 35 years ago, I always enjoyed his wit and friendship. He’d bend over backwards to aid someone. He had suffered much over the past several years and that takes a toll on the entire family. He is now at rest and it your and your family’s time to heal.
I am sorry to hear of Joe’s passing. I last saw him at a class reunion of Cranston East. Joe was always friendly and had a great sense of humor. My condolences to his family.
My Deepest condolences to the family of Joe Goodman. He was both an employer and a friend. His suffering has come to an end.
May his soul “Rest in Peace”
Dear Shelley, Jamie and Seth,
My deepest condolences on the death of your beloved Husband and Father. I’d been thinking of you all of a sudden. Went on line and saw the obituary. I’d like to contact you, it’s been such a long time. May you and the family find comfort in loving memories.

I am so sad to hear of Joey’s passing. He was such a nice young man. Even though there was a gap in contact, I always admired him and his family. I remember the huge family gatherings when we were young. I really miss not seeing. My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends. Love Evelyn and Al
