Howard Curtis Goff Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Howard Curtis Goff, 95, born January 1, 1927, died “Taco” Tuesday, March 29, 2022. Born in Newberry, FL., he served in the Army right out of high school and spent the last year of World War II in Japan until the end of the war. He came back to Florida got himself a Harley Davidson Motorcycle and was riding out to Oregon with a friend when they stopped off in Bristow, Oklahoma. He ended up meeting a girl there named June Rose who would become his wife. Oregon went out of the picture. He brought her back to Florida on the back of his Harley and they were married for 58 years until she passed in 2008. He and his wife raised four boys in Apopka while working for Lockheed Martin for 38 years, retiring in 1992. With an engineering mind, he was a master craftsman who could develop and build anything with some of his work from Lockheed Martin ended up in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. Also, an avid fisherman who could catch fish when no one else could, he still holds the generational family's record for the biggest bass 13 lbs., 13 oz., which he caught in 1966. He is survived by 3 sons, 9 grandchildren, 9 great-grandchildren, and 5 great-great-grandchildren. A man of great faith (John 3:16), he did much work for churches and ministries throughout his life and was surely ready to meet the Lord. Oh, and in his latest years, he lived for Taco Tuesday. He was greatly loved and will be greatly missed. TGBTG- To God Be The Glory
