In Memory Of

Aaron Jacob Goddard

February 8, 1984 ~ May 9, 2010

Aaron Jacob Goddard was born February 8,

1984 to Jeff and Jeanne (Hartz) Goddard

in Watford City, North Dakota. He was raised

and educated in rural Watford City, first home

schooled and then graduated

from Watford City High School in 2002. His

interests in school were academics and he ex-

celled in math, and advanced studies in ge-

ometry. He was a deep and philosophic

thinker and loved to write prose and po-

etry. He was raised in the Christian faith, was

born again at a young age, and was baptized

at Spring Lake Park in Williston. Every summer from age 13 to

18, he attended Child Evangelism Fellowship training in east-

ern North Dakota. This prepared him to hold backyard Bible

Clubs each summer locally.

After graduation, Aaron attended West Coast Baptist College

in Lancaster, California studying theology until 2005. Aaron

earned his commercial driver’s license in Denver, Colorado. He

drove truck for Halliburton, Sanjel and also drove huge haul

trucks for Freeport/McMoran copper mine in Arizona. He

recently returned to North Dakota and was last employed by

American Casing in Williston.

Aaron was a friend to everyone he met and had a very gentle

and kind nature. He had a love of all animals, especially his

pets. He enjoyed exploring, off-roading, and the great outdoors

off of the normal tourist paths.

Aaron is survived by his parents, Jeff and Jeanne Goddard of

Pie Town, NM; brother, Jeremy (Christy) Goddard of Lead, SD;

sister, Laura (Marcos) Reyes of Las Vegas, NV; grandparents,

Jessie Goddard of Mesa, AZ and Calvin and Bess Hartz of

Whiting, NJ.

He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Cephas Goddard,

whom he admired and spent a lot of quality time with when he

was younger.

“I am the Resurrection and the Life, saith the Lord: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live;

and whosoever liveth And believeth in me shall never die.”

John 11:25 and 26
