Lindsay Clare Goodman of Bossier City, Louisiana, passed away on December 29, 2025.

Born on April 23, 1985, the second "Smith" sister, Lindsay Clare, was a vibrant, tenacious, and unforgettable presence in the lives of all who knew her. She was a friend to countless throughout her life. During her formative years Lindsay attended All Saints' Episcopal where she excelled in sports, especially soccer. Lindsay not only played soccer at Lees McRae College in Banner Elk, NC, she also sporadically joined the ski team. This was not a surprise to those who knew and loved her and her adventurous spirit. She was known for her natural sense of comedy and owning the room's attention- making everyone laugh in the most ordinary moments. Her humor brought life and comfort to those around her. Lindsay loved the Lord professing her faith to many.

Lindsay lived her life to the fullest, embracing each day with joy and courage, and bravely serving the country she dearly loved. Lindsay served in the US Army as a surgical technician for twelve years. During this time, she deployed twice to Afghanistan, completed her jump master training, and served as a drill sergeant. Lindsay consistently followed excitement and never backed down from a challenge. Accompanied by the love of her life, Chris, she spent her final years being an amazing boy-mom to three stepsons and one son of her own. She loved deeply and was deeply loved in return.

Lindsay Clare is preceded in death by her mother and father, Richard and Liesa Smith. She is survived by her devoted husband, Chris Goodman, and his sons, Gunner, Landon, and Seth, her son, Axton Campbell, her sisters, Ledah Smith, Lacrissa Swan, and Leigh Sperier, as well as numerous nieces and nephews who love and cherish her dearly.

A graveside memorial service will be held January 30, 2026, at 11:30 AM at Northwest Louisiana Veterans Cemetery. This will be followed by a Celebration of Life at Open Door Bible Church, located at 905 Swan Lake Rd. Bossier City, LA 71111.

Lindsay Clare Goodman will be remembered for her laughter, her love, and the joy she brought into every room she entered. She will be deeply missed and remembered by all. Her faith was a source of strength, and we take comfort in knowing she now rests peacefully in the arms of the Lord.

Your prayers, presence, and shared memories are a gift to our families. If you feel inclined we kindly request contributions to the needs of Lindsay's beloved son, Axton, though flowers are welcome for her Celebration of Life.
