Christy Ann Goodman, 53, passed away Monday, November 18, 2024. She is survived by her two daughters, Falyn Snyder of Phoenix, AZ, and Jordyn (Snyder) Williamson of Odessa, Fl; father, Donald Goodman of Mckeesport, PA; sister Dana (Goodman) Novak of Safety Harbor, FL; grandson Maverick Williamson; sons-in-law Shawn Williamson and Garrett Nickelsen; brother-in-law Matthew Novak; and niece Emily Novak. She is predeceased by her mother, Janice Goodman, and sister, Michelle Goodman.
As the middle child of three daughters, Christy was known for her quiet and reserved demeanor, which contrasted with her cheeky sense of humor as an adult. She was an exceptional cook; her cheesecakes were particularly coveted during the holiday season, and you knew you were special if you were lucky enough to receive one. A native of Pittsburgh and a lifelong Steelers fan, Christy loved watching her team win this season and was hopeful for another Super Bowl victory.
Her greatest achievement was being a mom to Falyn and Jordyn and a proud grandmother to “little Mav.” She also took immense pride in her niece Emily.
