Goodman on April 21, 1935, the fifth generation of Goodmans to be born at the home place in Shiloh, South Carolina. He attended Sumter County schools, and graduated from Sherwood High School in 1953. He began studies at Clemson College (now Clemson University), after which he was admitted to the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine. He was awarded the degree of Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 1959. Eager to see the world, Dr. Goodman joined the United States Air Force as a Second Lieutenant. His first overseas duty station was Dhahran Air Field, Saudi Arabia, as the base veterinarian. This assignment provided opportunities to care for a variety of animals, including camels, monkeys, the renowned Air Force Academy falcons, and Arabian horses. Following his tour of duty in Saudi Arabia, he was assigned to Cape Canaveral (now Cape Kennedy) as part of the veterinary team that prepared monkeys for space flight. After completing active duty, Dr. Goodman served in the Air Force Reserves, and attained the rank of Lt. Colonel. Dr. Goodman returned home and entered private practice in Turbeville, after which he began work as a Field Veterinarian for Clemson University, as a large animal practitioner and diagnostician. He established the Large Animal Academy in South Carolina, and was named Veterinarian of the Year in 1973 by the South Carolina Association of Veterinarians. Dr. Goodman was a nationally known swine practitioner and diagnostician, and presented numerous papers to professional veterinary groups across the country. He was a prolific writer, and authored many articles which were published in veterinary journals. Dr. Goodman was a life-long member of the United Methodist church, serving in many leadership roles at both the local and conference levels. His devotion to God and the welfare of his fellow man instilled an intense desire to pursue mission work. With his friend and colleague, Dr. Leroy Dorminy of Ocilla, Georgia, Dr. Goodman established the Christian Veterinary Association in 1976, which later became the Christian Veterinary Mission. Through the Christian Veterinary Mission, hundreds of veterinarians have traveled, each at their own personal expense, to profoundly needy communities around the world to treat sick animals and teach sound animal husbandry practices to the local people. For the Christian Veterinary Mission, Dr. Goodman authored the field manual Raising Healthy Pigs, which has been translated into more than a dozen languages for use around the world. Dr. Goodman served as a Trustee of the South Carolina United Methodist Conference, was a member of the Board of Directors of the Citizens Bank and the Christian Veterinary Mission, was a charter member of the American Association of Swine Practitioners, a founding member of the Board of Advisors to Agrimissions of Paraguay, a member of Alpha Psi Fraternity, and the charter Scout Master of Troop 318 of the Boy Scouts of America, in addition to numerous other charitable causes to which he was dedicated. Dr. Goodman achieved his goal of travelling the world, and visited more than thirty-three countries during his lifetime, including Bermuda, the Azores, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Egypt, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Bahrain, Pakistan, India, Thailand, Hong Kong, Tahiti, New Zealand, Australia, Fiji, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Haiti, Canada, France, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Greece, Kazakhstan, South Africa, and Sudan. Dr. Goodman was preceded in death by his parents, the Hon. and Mrs. Carlyle W. Goodman (nee Neva Green), and his brothers, Carlyle Whittier Goodman, Jr., and Donald Goodman.
