On January 14, 2008, while resting comfortably in her home, Mary Jacqueline
Goodall, went gracefully into the waiting arms of God. She was born in Omaha, NE on January 17, 1924, she is pre-deceased by her daughter Janice Goodall and her son Ross Tolley and leaves behind a loving family, her children, Phillip Tolley, Jean Kaiwi, Avril Tolley, and Iris Villarreal; her grandchildren, Donovan Marcellius, Julia Hansen, Kathryn Baran, Manna Warburton, Abe Villarreal and Eddie Villarreal, Jr; and great-grandchildren, Sierra, Canyon, River, Chase, Savannah, Seth, Angel and Celeste. Mary, or MJ as her friends called her, had a special zest for life, was witty and entertaining and loved fine food and travel.

One of her favorite sayings was made popular during the Great Depression "You're so good to me and I'm so tired of it all". In lieu of flowers, the family has requested that donations be made in MJ's honor to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

Messages for the family can be posted on-line in the guestbook at www.norvelowensmortuary.com

A celebration of MJ's life will be held on Saturday, January 19, in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Heritage Square Clubhouse located at 3750 Braewood Dr.(Desert Inn and Pecos-McLeod) at 11:00 a.m.
