In Memory of Gene Goodin

Dear Pastor Chris, 

With Pastor Patrick and Pastor Quinn on Sabbatical and all of us away from the church, we wanted to reach out to you and the congregation of PBPC. We send our deepest sympathy and heartfelt gratitude to God for the amazing life of Gene Goodin. He was loved and he will be missed. 

We were in touch with Carol after we heard the news of Gene's passing from Colleen and Jerry Cambra. Carol shared the video of the Memorial Service. Thanks to Park Boulevard Presbyterian Church members and staff for putting together a lovely space to honor and remember Gene. You gracefully handled the technology in order to bring folks together to remember a dear man. We enjoyed watching and hearing the stories of Gene's remarkable life. We were not aware that he was an artist! We pray for your congregation as it is a huge loss. 

Prayers for all of you in the difficult season of pandemic, separation, pain, and loss.

Blessings, 
Katie Garrett for the Christ Church Pastors and Staff

In Memory of Gene Goodin
Gene Goodin was a remarkable man. We only knew him in his nineties as the faithful servant of Park Boulevard Presbyterian Church. We would have surely loved to have known him during the previous 80+ years of his life!  As a sister church to PBPC, Christ Church witnessed his deep loyalty, weekly commitment to the church, and honorable service to others. We are all inspired by Gene to be committed to Christ, the church, community, and family. We are blessed to have known Gene Goodin.
