GOODE, Arnold Ellis - 90, of Halifax/Dartmouth, passed away peacefully on Friday, February 27, 2026, in Mountain Lea Lodge, Bridgetown. Born in Fitch Bay, Quebec, he was a son of the late Arnold Ellis Goode Sr. and Doris (Waite) (Goode) Moffat.
Arnold served in the Royal Canadian Navy for 21 years. He then worked as Taxi Driver and in Real Estate until his next career at HMC Dockyard as ASCO for 20 years. He was a true community volunteer, including Kiwanis Club, Dartmouth Boy and Girls Club, Scouts and Girl Guide leader, Abenaki Aquatic Club and more. He was a valued member of the Woodlawn United Church and could often be seen at the Mall with Poppies, Salvation Army Kettle, Daffodils for Cancer etc. Arnold was a man of old fashion values and morals, strongly believed in Community and helping your neighbor.
