Dean G. Goodman obituary notes memorial service in Iron River area
Dean G. Goodman’s memorial service will bring family and friends to the Iron River Senior Center on June 5 before burial in Stambaugh Cemetery.
Dean G. Goodman, 82, died peacefully on Sunday, Nov. 23, 2025, at Peabody Manor in Appleton, Wisconsin, surrounded by family. Born June 2, 1943, in Stambaugh, Michigan, to Gerald and Mavis (Johnson) Goodman, he remained tied to the Iron River area through the family and final arrangements now set for June.
Goodman married Lois Abrahamson on Dec. 28, 1960, and together they raised two children. Nash Funeral Home and Cremation Services of Crystal Falls is handling arrangements, and the family has directed condolences there. The same notice asks that memorial gifts be considered for ThedaCare Hospice or the Parkinson’s Foundation, reflecting the care that shaped his final years.
A memorial service is scheduled for Friday, June 5, 2026, at 1 p.m. at the Iron River Senior Center, a setting that places the gathering in the center of the community rather than far from it. Burial will follow in Stambaugh Cemetery, keeping the final committal in the place where Goodman was born and where his family history began.
That burial site still carries local weight in Iron County. Stambaugh was dissolved and incorporated into Iron River in 2000, but the cemetery remains a familiar landmark for families with deep roots in the area. Find a Grave lists Stambaugh Cemetery as one of three cemeteries in Iron River and notes 27 memorial records there, underscoring how often the site serves as a resting place for longtime county residents.
