Juanita Sink Goodson

Juanita Sink Goodson was born in Texas City on Aug. 5, 1916 and died May 13, 2008 in Austin.

She attended the Ursuline Academy in Galveston, graduated from Copperas Cove High School in 1932 and from Southwest Texas State Teachers College in 1952.

In 1933 she married Whitsitt Ruel Goodson of Copperas Cove. She and her husband spent their careers in education.

She taught in McMahon, Copperas Cove and Austin. While teaching in Copperas Cove during World War II she helped to start a USO (United Service Organizations) for soldiers at Fort Hood in the Copperas Cove school gymnasium. She later accompanied her husband on travels to Latin America and Europe where he represented the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools as well as the U.S. Department of State Office of Overseas American Schools.

She enjoyed writing the stories of her life in senior citizens classes and making quilts for her family's enjoyment.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Dr. W.R. Goodson, in 1986, her younger sister, Louise Sink Gilmore Love, in 1999 and her older brother, Lewis Benjamin Sink, in 2005.

She is survived by her daughter Elaine Goodson of Austin; her son Donald Whitsitt Goodson of Ridgecrest, Calif. and his wife Charlotte Watson Goodson; by a grandson David Whitsitt Goodson of Seattle, Wash. and his wife April Smith Goodson; and granddaughter Katharine Villers Goodson of Ridgecrest, Calif.

She will be buried in the Copperas Cove City Cemetery.
