I copied this off of my sister's blog. The funeral was on Tuesday, August 1. It went well and what is strange is that the funeral was on the day that grandpa goodman passed away exactly ten years ago.

Grandma Goodman's Obituary
HAZEL E. GOODMAN
August 02, 2006
It is with sadness we announce the passing of Hazel E. Goodman, age 90 years of the Emo Health Centre, formerly of the Golden Age Manor in Emo, Ont., who passed away at her residence on Saturday, July 29, 2006.
She was born on January 5, 1916 in Bromhead, Saskatchewan to the late Wilfred and Laura Shultz. Hazel graduated from the Kitchener/Waterloo Hospital in 1944 as a Registered Nurse.
In 1953 she was united in marriage to Ernest (Keith) Goodman. Later in 1956, they moved to Emo where they raised their family and resided since.
Hazel worked as a Charge Nurse at the Emo Red Cross Hospital in Emo for many years, until her retirement in 1978. She also worked for the Canadian Red Cross Society for over 25 years.
As well, Hazel attended and held various offices at the Calvary Baptist Church in Emo. She also was a member of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Gideons Bible Society.
Following retirement, she and Keith loved to travel through the U.S. and Canada with their little camper trailer. When Keith was no longer able to travel she lovingly cared for him until his death in 1996.
She also very generously gave of her time to assist Dave and Mary doing bookkeeping at Borderland Esso. Hazel will be missed very much by her family and all of her friends that knew her.
She was predeceased by her father Wilfred Shultz; and later by her stepfather Benson Smith and mother Laura Smith; her husband Keith Goodman; one infant daughter Anne Frances Goodman; brothers-in-law Len Shore and John Brubacher; nephew Garth Brubacher and niece Judy France.
Hazel is survived by one son, David Goodman and wife Mary of Emo, Ont., one daughter, Janice Dewar and special friend Larry Catagas of Winnipeg, Man.; and her dearly loved grandchildren, Christina, David, Kathryn, Stephanie, Angela, Sharla, Deidre and William; and great grandson Rylee.
She is also survived by two sisters Velma Brubacher of Peterborough, Ont., and Ruth Shore of Malton, Ont., and by several nieces and nephews.

Active pallbearers were Gordon Armstrong, John Gerber, Ray Friesen, Henry Kaemingh, David Goodman and William Dewar.
