I have been next door neighbors to the Goodalls almost continuously for the last 30 years, first as a child, then as an adult when I bought my parents house.

I’m thankful for the kindness showed by Jack and Mary when I was a child.

A memory that sticks out is them being the first house we would trick or treat as kids (since the Goodalls were our next door neighbors), and that Jack and Mary would always bust out multiple, extra large candy bars upon our arrival with large smiles on their faces.

Sorry for you loss, and let us know if there as anything we can do.

Your next door neighbor,

Max Doshay

I met Jack many times.

A charming man.

He was lifelong friends with my brother Terry.

My heart is full thinking of their friendship.

Sending love,

Susan Rhea

We first met in the second grade of Euclid Grammar School, and we've been close friends ever since.

As time went on I had the honor of watching Jack not only succeed in many of life's challenges, but use his earnings to form a better San Diego.

And we became family.

The Tuesday prior to his passing, Mike Rogers and  I shared the honor of enjoying a meal at Jack's home.

It was all Jack – smiling as he shared his many experiences at Hoover High and San Diego State University.

He was a wonderful man – who left the world better off than when he came here.

I send my love to each and every one of you.
