Incident
Captain Goodin and other members of his fire department had just completed their response to a medical assistance call. Most members departed for home, leaving Captain Goodin and the Chief in the station.
Captain Goodin and the Chief left the station, and Captain Goodin locked the door. He turned to the Chief and told him that he was not feeling well. Captain Goodin attributed his illness to heartburn, took two steps, and fell straight forward, striking his head on a vehicle bumper.
The Chief called for assistance, and Captain Goodin was transported to a local hospital where he was pronounced deceased from an apparent heart attack.
Captain Goodin was a founding member of the Mount Victory Fire Department.
