Billy Boots, # 20282 LTG-Regulator Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 If this was posted in last months I missed it and apologize for late posting.. I found out today from Two Gun Johnny that Goody had passed away in November. Johnny heard from a nephew so he was unaware till recent also. It is a great loss to SASS. Goody frequently posted on Wire and had plenty of humor as well as good advice. He was one of my earliest, dear friends from my start in SASS. I liked him from first meeting, probably at 10horns when at Greenville Texas or Buck Creek at Glen Rose Picture this: A nice camp fire with pot of beans cooking, Goody, Goatneck, TX Banker, Knifemaker, and 10icStar reciting lines from Blazing Saddles and waiting on T-Bone, Ringo Fire, Spur, Billy Boots, Two-gun Johnny, Non Stop, and a bunch from Ormsby Ranch clubs and Bar 3. We were blessed to have known Goody. God comfort family and many friends in that loss. 1 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Sad to hear this Billy. Goody was of the very few shooters still out at Lone Star when I returned from my brief foray into mounted shooting. His humor, fellowship and knowledge of cowboy action shooting, guns thereof and willingness to share that will be sorely missed. RIP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how many S&W 38s and SKBs I got from him thru the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between Spur, Ringo, Non Stop, and Goody...close the doors. And, don't eat the beans. Certainly right about Miss Ann also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think sitting around the fire with Ringo, Boots, Spur, T-Bone, Non Stop, and Goody. Bet he is enjoying this. RIP my friend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Sam, SASS #34718L Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I do miss my regular "arguments" with Goody... I think we both enjoyed those almost as much as the Shootin' I met Jim wayyyy back in about 71'... Him and sometimes with his brother would stop by the motorcycle shop I worked at to drool all over the bikes and ask about how the weekend's MX races went. Years later I went to my first CAS Shoot to just Look around and see what it was all about..... At the shooters meeting I heard some kid holler my name out and it was Goody! The "Dirty Rat" announced that I was gonna Shoot not just watch. Then he strapped some guns on my hips and got me started in CAS... I never forgave him I do Miss Goody!! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mack Hacker, #60477 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Goody was a motorcycle riding, pawnshop raiding, gun trading cowboy shooting enthusiast who also held down a high level position as an accountant for Goody Goody Liquor Stores. He was also a good friend to those of us in the DFW area SASS clubs and beyond. Once he even ventured out into the clay bird arena and shot skeet and five stand clays leagues with Noah Gonnatellyah, Nueces Outlaw, Silver Sam and I. Fortunately, that was a short time experiment and we got back to where we belonged at the cowboy range I will miss him and like many others, I feel like we still have one more “deal” to put together 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dream Chaser, SASS #79316 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Had the pleasure of meeting Goody about three years or so ago. Left a good impression . Sorry for his passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozark Okie Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I'm sorry to say that I never met Goody; would have loved sitting around the fire with him. I did get to know him through his always interesting and knowledgeable posts on the forums. Also through personal help he provided me when I got interested in JP Sauer and Sons revolvers. He even sent me a hammer to try when one of mine was damaged. He was a good guy as many others have attested. I miss him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Skinner, SASS#60697 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I remember giving him a hard time at Fort Parker one year, because we were eating steaks that were so good, he was eating the bottom out of his paper plate. Another good man done gone. RIP, Goody. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
