In Memory Of

Vonnie Kuchynka Goodson, age 74, of Miles City

August 3, 1947 – December 18, 2021

Vonnie M. Kuchynka Goodson reunited with her husband in Heaven on December 18, 2021. Vonnie was born on August 3, 1947, in Valley City, North Dakota, to David Kuchynka and Judy Read Kuchynka. Vonnie had two brothers, Alan and David Kuchynka and many sisters: Donna Delagarza, Judy, Katie, and Toni Kuchynka.

When Vonnie moved to Miles City she met the love of her life, Robert E. Goodson. On March 12, 1965, Vonnie and Robert were married at the Presbyterian Church in Miles City. Later that year, they had their first of five children. They welcomed Robert D. Goodson on October 30, 1965. On August 30, 1968, they welcomed Mark A. Goodson. Three years later September 25, 1971, they welcomed their third child, James (Jim) W. Goodson. On August 20, 1977, Jason S. Goodson was born. They seemed to have their little family complete until the year 1992 came along, they welcomed the surprise of their life, Brian J. Goodson on July 4.

Vonnie loved customer service and worked at motels and gas stations, where she met many of her forever friends. She also enjoyed a life full of grandchildren. She loved every single one of them. She did not have the pleasure of meeting all of them, but always wished did. Vonnie was an amazing and one-of-a-kind wife, mother, and grandma. She loved everyone in her life and would have done anything for anyone. One thing she would want her family and friends to know is that she loved you very much, especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Vonnie is survived by her five boys: Robert D., Mark A., James (Jim) W., Jason S., and Brian J. Her brother Alan K., her sisters; Dona, Judy, Katies, and Toni. And most of all her many grandchildren and great grandchildren. Vonnie was preceded in death by her parents, David and Judy, her husband, Robert E., her daughter-in-law, Kathy Goodson, and her Uncle Henry Kuchynka.

Family will be receiving friends on Wednesday, December 22, 2021, from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm at Stevenson and Sons Funeral Home in Miles City. A Memorial Service will be held in the spring of 2022, date and time will be posted at that time.
