Donald “Don” Giles Goodson, of Vale, was a son to the late Bill Goodson and Geneva Gabriel Goodson. He was preceded in death by a brother Billy Goodson.
The family takes comfort in knowing he was welcomed by his Heavenly Father and loved ones.
Don attended faithfully, First Presbyterian Church in Lincolnton. Over the years he has volunteered with many organizations; including Habitat for Humanity and Hesed House of Hope. Having been born and raised in Lincoln County, he loved this place, and in particular our town. He often recalled times when town was the place families congregated on Saturdays, enjoyed telling where various businesses used to be or where a building once stood. He enjoyed eating at City Lunch, especially on “fried chicken day”, but we all know it was not just the food that kept him coming back it was the people, staff and customers, and he considered them all his friends.
Donnie graduated from Lincolnton High School in 1957 and loved his classmates and helping with their reunions. They will be honored by the family at Don’s funeral having a special area to be seated. Donnie worked most of his adult life at Howard’s Construction Company. He was known as “Papa” to six Grandchildren.
Interment in Hollybrook Cemetery.
