Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

It has been several years since you have passed away, but your impact and memory of being a father remains intact. I remember your love of repairing and building houses or cabins. Your accomplishments in this area will always be remembered by your son. I was always amazed to see that you had great talent in the areas of hockey and music. Most of all, you loved everyone and never judged people because you left that to God. Truly, you are a great Icelandic Scandinavian. Someday, I will visit Iceland and will remember how our ancestors traveled from Iceland to New Iceland. I will make the journey for you and your brothers and sister. I named my son in the memory of your brother that died tragically near the Lutheran Cemetery in Selkirk. I'm sure you are working on projects in heaven and I hope you have had a chance to hear Bach play the organ. Your son, Gunnar p.s. Buxtehude the Dane, is just as good (Bach' teacher) and say hello to Paul. - Posted by: Gunnar Goodman (Son) on: Jul 19, 2013
