Jon Richard Good

Jon Richard Good, 70, of Morganton, NC passed away on Tuesday, March 11, 2025. The son of the late Robert Victor Good Jr. and Jean Sanderson Good, Jon was born in Wilmington, Delaware on July 8, 1954. A graduate of Catawba College with a B.S. in Business, Jon furthered his education by earning a masters degree in early childhood intervention from West Virginia University. Jon began teaching young children with learning disabilities, eventually assuming supervisory responsibilities. On a different track, he sailed the east coast on tankers with Sun Oil. Given the opportunity of traveling the world, Jon began work as a commercial window glazer. Glazing for U.S. embassies, he often took Sherry with him around the globe, including to Finland, Kosovo, Indonesia, Russia, Israel, Kazakhstan among other countries. Jons favorite activities included spending time outdoors at their home on the Linville River, relaxing by the fire pit, and taking in the sounds of the evening. He relished the freedom of the open roads on his Harley. As a youth, Jon achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. Its values were incorporated in the way he lived his life. Those left to cherish his memory include his wife of 32 years, Sherry White Good; his sister Margaret Peggy Good Vermilya (Mrs.Peter); his nephews, Robbie Gross and John Good, and his niece Kari Yocum. In addition to his parents, Jon was preceded in death by his brother Robert Victor Good III. A celebration of life will be held on a later date. In lieu of flowers, contributions to St Judes Childrens Hospital or the Tunnel to Towers Foundation would be greatly appreciated. Sossoman Funeral Home and Crematory Center is assisting the family.
