She was born March 30th, 1923, in Oak Hill, Ohio to the late Lewis and Myrtle Coon. In August of 1942 she married Paul Delaney who passed away in 1989.
Goldie was a faithful member of the Old Country Church in Oak Hill until she moved North to be near her daughters and family. She worked several jobs during her lifetime, but she enjoyed being home and doing for her family and others the most.
She will be remembered for being a very loving and caring person who never had a problem with anyone. She was a great cook, especially her pumpkin pie and apple dumplings. Her loving nature never let anyone go home hungry or needing anything.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Paul Delaney; son, Larry David Delaney; grandson, Jed Cooper; sisters, Mildred Gillespie and Mabel Radabaugh.
The family would like to extend their appreciation to the nurses and staff at The Laurels of Defiance for the loving care they provided.
