Deceased Name: Richard Goodall
Dallas, TX, USA
Goodall, Richard Ainsworth 58, passed away on April 17, 2011 after a battle with cancer. Services will be held April 21, 2011 at 11am at St. Mark's Cathedral in Shreveport, LA, USA. Dick was a native of Dallas, TX, USA and a resident of Shreveport, LA, USA for over 30 years. He made his career as a professional photographer and earned Master of Photography and Photographic Craftsman degrees from the Professional Photographers Association (PPA). He opened Goodall Studios in 1976 and after years of hard work, he opened Goodall Photographic Gallery in 2003, a place where he created his most memorable work. He has won numerous photographic competition awards and his images have been recognized in multiple national publications. He had a strong passion for teaching and spoke and judged at numerous conferences and conventions. He relished in his position as photography professor at LSU-Shreveport and thrived on being able to teach others the art of F-stops and shutter speeds. When he was not busy capturing those priceless moments in all of our lives, he could be found on his bicycle riding with his 5:50 cycling group. He loved those mornings where he was always in control of the sprint. And if his feet were not clipped into his pedals, he and Cam would be cruising on his Honda Goldwing through the back roads of the country. And if he wasn't flying through the streets, he was soaring through the clouds. He found great solace in his Cessna and loved taking photographs of the world below. He flew often to West Lakes to seek the beauty of the outdoors and to enjoy life in the slow lane. His talented hands could not only work the intricacies of a camera or the technical instruments of an airplane, but they could produce the most beautiful pieces of woodwork you have ever seen. He was truly an artist in every way. But his greatest love remained with his family. His wife, Cammie, was his best friend and his children were the joy of his life. His presence will be forever in our hearts. Dick was preceded in death by his parents, Jack and Betty Goodall, of Dallas, TX, USA. He is survived by his wife of 21 years, Camille Hargis Goodall; son, Benjamin Ainsworth Goodall; daughter, Jamie Goodall Surovik and husband, Eric Surovik; grandson, Claiborne Jackson Graves; granddaughter, Ainsley Elizabeth Surovik; sister, Diane Goodall Sealy, and her husband and 4 children, Scott Sealy, Amy Sealy, Lisa Sealy, Scott Sealy Jr, and Michael Sealy; brother, Michael Allen Goodall, and his wife and 2 daughters, Becky Goodall, Courtney Goodall Taylor and Leigh Goodall Mundinger. He is also survived by innumerable friends. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to M.D. Anderson Cancer Center for research towards finding a cure for kidney cancer. As a family, we would like to express our deepest gratitude to all of our family and friends for their undying love, support and prayers as we journeyed down this difficult road and as we rejoice in knowing that he is now at peace.
