n Loving Memory of
Rodrick Jarvell Gooden was born on June 28, 1957 to Evelyn and Milton Gooden
and his journey on earth ended suddenly on December 31, 2020.
Rodrick served 6 years in the United States Navy, he enlisted on July 5, 1988,
and Honorably Discharged March 4, 1994
He was a dedicated son, brother, father, and friend with so many quips about
life, love and the pursuit of happiness. He found joy in art, martial arts,
motorcycles, and the affection from the opposite sex.
RJ was a force to be reckoned with and a jolly soul all wrapped into a loving
package and will be dearly missed by all who knew him, he would want everyone
to rejoice and celebrate his life and know that he is resting with his loving
grandmother, Willie Mae Johnson
He is survived by his parents, his sisters Mavis Adams and Constance McKenzie,
his four children, Remica Gooden, Goody Howard, Tiffany Gooden and Adam
Gooden. He was a loving "Papi" to his ten grandchildren.
Rest in Peace Rodrick Jarvell Gooden, we shared great memories and you will
be truly missed.
