Remembering a funny, wonderful man of strength and character. God bless you, Paul. See you in heaven.
Great memories of time spent with Paul. I will miss him. I will be out of town for business for services but my prayers are with Paul’s spirit and the family. God bless you Paul Goddard.
I went to NEC with Paul & was able to celebrate our 25th reunion together. Paul was one of those quietly funny good guys! He was very proud sharing stories about his children during the reunion & said they were who made him most happy.
I wish much peace to him, his family & friends.
I met Paul freshman year at NEC and became best buds – he was funny, outgoing and was always up for a great adventure. Paul knew how to connect with people and let them know he truly cared about them. So many great memories – California & Florida and so many other great times skiing, sharing about his family and good times! Love & Peace
RIP Monty
Mr. Goddard was a great man. He was never too busy to stop you and see how everything was going. I played football with Mitch, and Mr. Goddard never missed a game and was one of our most loyal fans! He would always pat me on the shoulder pads and say great game, even when I didn’t play so great. I will always remember the caring nature of Mr. Goddard, and how easy it was to strike up a conversation with him. Rest easy, and I am praying for all the friends and family affected by this.

My deepest condolences to the family for this tremendous loss. May the words found at Isaiah 26:19 bring you comfort in knowing that you will one day see Paul again.
Isaiah 26:19 “Your dead will live. My corpses will rise up. Awake and shout joyfully, You residents in the dust! For your dew is as the dew of the morning, And the earth will let those powerless in death come to life”
