Mr Goff, You were always willing to talk to us kids, and give us your knowledge & wisdom. You showed us things without talking, like 'to work hard' and 'be on time' and 'your word is your bond'. May your passing shine more light on the wonderful things you have done for us, your family and the Long Branch Community. I/we will all truly miss you Sir.

Our beloved Sonny has physically left us behind but his powerful legacy lives on in the way he embodied the fruit of the spirit. Sonny was loving, faithful, loyal, kind, smart, articulate, helpful,hard working, and an all around good guy. Mother and Sonny (Betty) were best friends and cousins. We always looked forward to seeing Sidney and his family and boy did he love his family. So long for now Sonny. We love and adore you. Myriam
