Being the ever faithful servant...she obeyed.
That is all I have for now, I'm sorry.
Pray On!

My love and prayers are with you all. I keep wanting to say I am so sorry but then I hear Mr. Brown saying dont be sorry; Tell me a memory or how she made you feel. I feel blessed to have met Robynn, her smile and optimism were contagious. I know Robynn and Kelly are together no more suffering just smiling on us with their beautiful smiles. Love to you all.
Im surprised to say I feel relief. Im glad to say she is not hurting anymore. Im going to sit in stunned silence for a while. Im sorry. Sue
I didn't know Robynn, but, heard of her through friends. I have read the blog and prayed along with all of you. I feel as though your story has strengthened my faith, and helped me to re-evaluate my life and what is important. Thank you for helping me to live a fuller life. I wish I would have known Robynn, I think we would have been great friends. I continue to pray for your family. I am so very sorry for your loss. God Bless

I am so, so sorry for your loss. I did not have the privilege of knowing Robynn personally, but with this BEAUTIFUL "blog", I felt like I knew her. Thank you for allowing me to share in her life. I sit here with tears right now for all of you.

My deepest condolences to the Goodell family. I am relieved Robynn is finally at peace and suffers no more pain. I pray that the rest of you find the healing and comfort you need to one day remember both Robynn and Christmastime with a peaceful heart and not such sadness.
Thank you so much for keeping us updated as Robynn struggled. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.

My heart is broken for all of you and your family. But Robynn is now at peace. I pray you will all be able to find peace as well.

Wendy and Boyd Dodder
Run Robynn, Run. =) Psalm 30:5 Is true, for Your JOY HAS come this morning; no more pain, your body has been completely restored and you are healed in heaven. (And I'm sure the food is absolutely fabulous! =) However, I'm also sure Nothing will come close to your Chocolate Cake!) I love you; have I told you lately how much you inspire me?
Brian and family, we are here, (I know you already know that), but please let us know if there is anything you need.
You know Army Goodell is here for you Brian, for anything anytime. You too Shelley, Jenny or Derek and family. We all just kbow the Lord will comfort, somehow He will.
This world is not my home I'm just a passing through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh Lord you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home then Lord what will I do
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
I have a loving mother just up in Gloryland
And I don't expect to stop until I shake her hand
She's waiting now for me in heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh Lord you know...
Just over in Gloryland we'll live eternaly the saints on every hand are shouting victory
Their songs of sweetest praise drift back from heaven's shore
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh Lord you know...
When I cross over
I will shout and sing
I will know my savior
By the mark where the nails have been
CHORUS:
By the mark where the nails have been
By the sign upon his precious skin
I will know my savior when I come to him
By the mark where the nails have been
A man of riches
May claim a crown of jewels
But the king of heaven
Can be told from the prince of fools
CHORUS
On Calvary Mountain
Where they made him suffer so
All my sin was paid for
A long, long time ago
and finally
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Travelling through this world of woe
There's no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright land to which I go
Chorus
Yes I'm going over Jordan
Just going, no more to roam
Only going over Jordan
Just a-going to my home
I know dark clouds will gather round me
I know my way is rough and steep
But golden fields lie out before me
Where all the saints their vigils keep
Chorus
I'm going there to meet my [father/mother/brother sister etc]
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm just a-going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
I want to wear a crown of glory
When I get home to that bright land
I want to shout Salvation's story
In concert with that blood-washed band
I'll soon be free from earthly trials
This body rests in the orchard's yard
I'll drop this cross of self-denial
And go singing home to God
I am glad Robynn is no longer in pain. I am praying for the entire family. She was a great lady! I will miss her very much. I am so sorry for you loss Brian and lil ones, my heart is aching for you.
Love,
Melissa (Missy) Risberg
I am so sorry... I am happy she doesn't have to have any more "yuckies". She was a beautiful person and will always be there in our hearts. We now have an angel named Robynn. I'll miss you Robynn!
With love,
Emilie
Dear Goodell family,
Robynn has been such an amazing testimony of strength and faith in our Lord. She has touched all of our family's lives so sweetly. We only wish we could have met her in person. Thank you Shelley for keeping us so faithfully updated. We are thankful that Robynn is now in the Lord's arms and meeting our sweet baby Jonah who she prayed for and supported during her difficult time. She blessed our family so much and we are forever grateful. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Thank you for sharing Robynn with us. In His Love, Nancy Goodman (Jonah's Nana)
I am heart broken at your loss. Robynn has been an inspiration to so many people. I am glad she is at peace and that we have another Angel among us. Robynn is with he Grandfather Hansen now. My love and prayers to the entire family.
Dawn
My heart feels very heavy right now. I know that sweet Robynn in with the Lord in peace. We have all prayed for her to have peace and comfort, and the Lord has answered. Brian, Brady, Hailey and family, may you all find strength and comfort in the days and weeks to come. Your family will continue to be surrounded by a great army! I feel blessed to have met Robynn and to share in her amazing life. She is and will always be a testiment to the power of faith and love.
Forever Standing Strong,
Kellie Stroud
Dearest ones,
I am so sad for you this morning and I am comforted by the thought of Robynn finally at peace. I hope that you are comforted by all of the thoughts and prayers that will be directed your way. Give hugs from me to everyone. I love you all. Thank you Shelley for all of your updates. It has made it easier for me to grieve the loss of such a dear friend. I will see you on the 23rd.
Love, Dana S.
Our family extends to your family the most love and comfort we have in this most difficult time.
There is nothing so painful as losing such a brilliant love and light as Robyyn. We grieve with you.
Campos/Miner family
Oh my dear Shelley - My heart is aching for you.....take your own advice dear and "stand strong" and know that Robynn is standing with our Lord and Savior. We all long for that day in this "waiting room" we call earth. I pray for your brother and his children and ask for our Lord's comfort for them in their grief. And I pray for this for you too dear Shelley.
Love, Sharon
I am so sorry for the pain that your family is feeling. I am sick with saddness and at a loss for words.

Im really at a loss for words I love your family and will pray for continued streght. Shelly thank you so much your truly a BEAUTIFUL person
As I sit here trying to type through tears all I can say is God Bless you Brian, Haley and Brady. Your mother was truly an angel on this earth and we are all better people just by having her in our lives. She is now in God's kingdom, but forever in our hearts. Just know...she will ALWAYS be with you! God bless and all of our love...The McIntyre's

Dear Goodell family, I only learned of you 2 days ago but for the past 2 days my thoughts and prayers have been consumed by your family. I got up this morning and the first thing I did was go straight to this blog to see how Robynn was doing. I was saddened by the news of her passing and angry that she did not have more time here with her loving family and beautiful children. I then tried to see the good and what I should be grateful for. I am so grateful that she is no longer in pain and she is in that beautiful place called heaven. I did not know her but I can just tell she was a bright light in so many peoples lives. Your story will carry on with me for many many years to come. I prayed last night for the Lord to give her strength and now I pray for her family. I ask the Lord to lift you all up and give YOU the strength you need to get through this very difficult time. I pray for her children to know how much they are loved by all those around them. It makes me smile to see all the pictures and wonderful memories you all have created with her. I am so very sorry for your loss and please know I will continue to pray for you all for peace and strength.
With a heavy heart,
Nichol
Shelley your wording on the Blog was so beautifully well put. I read with resistant disbelief, given how much Sweet Robynn fought,& fought, & fought to make the most of each day.
My heart is over flowing with such love,concern,compassion,caring, & support for all of Sweet Robynn's family & friends.
I couldn't help but cry as being one of her ol' work pals,not for her home coming, instead for the profound loss all of us feel!!!
With prayers for comfort & strength for you all...
Much love always,
Jill & Bob West
Your Angel sits at the right hand of our Father. She will watch over you as you have watched over her.
My tears are selfish tears because I never was blessed with meeting her. None the less she touched my heart and soul.
I will continue to pray for her family. God bless her Army
R.G
The world was a better place because of Robynn. She was so special! Robynn, you will be sorely missed! When I think of angels, I think of you.
Brian and family, know that we love you guys so much!
J.T., Rebekah, & Jacob
We are so sorry. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We love you,
Jill W
We are so sorry.
I am praying for your entire family. I know Robynn has a great friend up in Heaven to show her the ropes- Kelly. Together they will watch over us. And they are no longer suffering.
Safe travels, God Bless.
I wish I knew Robynn better..just a few interactions with her in Bakersfield left such an impression. Instead of being sorry, I'll try to be more like her and remember the important things she taught all of us on this earth. I know she is soaring with God's angels. God Bless you all.
Robynn is at peace and finally pain free. She touched so many lives in her short life, and I believe she changed many lives (like mine) for the better. What a gift she gave! What an example she set for all of us...
God, please put your healing hand upon the Goodell family. In this time of great sorrow, somehow, let their beautiful memories of Robynn lighten their heavy hearts.
When you're born...you cry...and the world is happy. When you die...the world cries...and you are happy.
I will miss you so much beautiful..! I am a better person for having known you....
Love and Prayers,
Lois & Family
Dear Goodell and Hansen family~ My heart has dropped to my stomach yet again, but I feel so many emotions, one is Robynn is in paradise, Heaven, where there is no hurt, sadness, illness, only pure joy. She is in our forever home, we are just renting space here on earth. She will be waiting for you all. In the meantime, you have the most beautiful angel with the sweetest dimples watching over you always. Remember we are the ones mourning, she is rejoicing with our Lord! But reality is we are mourning here and my heart breaks for Robynn's mini me's. :0) All the pictures, this blog and memories you have made will forever be a legacy for the kids. What a gift! It is a given that Team Goodell will continue on and wrap Brian, the kids and all the family with our love, support and prayers. Please continue to blog once in a while Shelley and let us know how the kids are. Jenni, my sweet friend, Robynn's sister, I love you and am here for you. So with hope, sadness, faith, and grief, I say to Robynn thank you for touching my life and the life of SO many people. In the meantime, rest sweet girl until we all join you!~ Carrie
This news takes my breath away and the tears continue to fall. As a "stranger" who has never had the privilege of meeting any of you, I want you to know what an inspiration Robynn and your family have been to me. Last night as I was praying for Robynn, God reminded that the greatest Christmas gift that He could give her would be heaven. The human part of me cries out "NO", but I know He is right.
I don't know why He does the things He does but I do know that we can trust His heart. Praying that God's peace and comfort would be physically felt by all of you.
Oh, I am just so sorry...there really aren't any words.
Love to all of you,
Sheryl (still praying on in Michigan)
Our families love & payers go your way. We are grieving and crying right beside all of you. Robynn has now moved on to become our Angel in heaven as she was here in life. We will be joining you all in Bakersfield.
Hugs,
The Cavett Family,
Jason, Moona, Ariana, Melina, & Baby Jason
It felt colder this morning and now I know why. My heart goes out to her family, her friends. How lucky we all are to have been touched by this woman.
A good friend shares this poem with me a while back when I lost someone close to my heart. May it bless you the way it blessed me. I am so sorry for your loss. Thinking about this past year, I am truly amazed by your faith. I want to thank your entire family for allowing God to use you during this difficult time. You will probably never know how many people were inspired and how many people have experienced a stronger faith because of the way you have dealt with this Robynn's illness and now her passing. Praise God and thank you for listening to Him and keeping your eyes on Him.
A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizonand someone at my side says She is goneGone where? Gone from my sight, that is all.She is just as large now as when I last saw her.Her diminished size and total loss from my sight is in me, not in her.And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gonethere are others who are watching her coming over their horizonand other voices take up a glad shout There she comes!That is what dying is. An horizon and just the limit of our sight.Lift us up, Oh Lord, that we may see further
Love, The Kelso Family (Kevin, Heidi, Evan, Ivy, Ryan, and Shelby)
I too am happy that Robynn is in pure peace and completely pain free and in the presence of our ever loving Lord and Savior, her Father! Praise God for not making Robynn suffer any longer! I will continue to pray for you, her family, her precious children and most loving husband.
Spread your wings and fly, Robynn!!!
Misty Greenhalgh

Brian, Shelley and Family of Robynn,
I will be forever grateful for what Robynn and your whole family has done for me and for so many others....she brought so many people closer to God...I thank her everyday for bringing Kelly back to her faith...not that it was ever lost, but Robynn has given all of us a renewed faith. Just being brought in to her amazing story has opened up so many to new conversation...She made us see what is truly important in this life...and she was so incredibly blessed to have you all. And Brian...what a gift you were and will continue to be for Robynn...to have that kind of love is so very special. She knew your unwavering love for her and that is something to be cherished. She knew how very much she was loved and adored....Brian you couldn't have loved your Robynn any better....Man...what a lucky girl! The song KEEP HOLDING ON is playing...."nothing you can say, nothing you can do....nothing's gonna change destiny" I picture Robynn running through the finish line...with that smile that says....I WON! What a champ....
I love you Brian... I love you Shelley!!! We are here....Our hearts hurt so bad..."in the pain there is healing" the pain just confirms the tremendous love....We will be okay...never the same...but okay...I will say good bye now...as the song "I CAN ONLY IMAGINE" is now on....and I want to imagine Kelly and Robynn dancing with Jesus...plus typing through tear...bites...
So much love!
Oh Brian and Shelley...I just want to sqeeze you both....
Brandy
My Dear Family, I'm in tears and just plain numb to hear that Robynn has gone home, but grateful that she is no longer suffering. She fought long & hard. She had many wonderful reasons to just want to fight to stay alive.Brian you truly are an amazing man and I will continue to pray for God to give you the strength to carry on and for those beautiful children to have the fondest memeories of their MOMMY. She made me a better person!! I just wanted all of you to know that you are loved and prayed for daily. My family is here for you always & forever....
God Bless,
Liz Haskell
P.S. I'm so use to logging on my computer and checking for updates and sending messages that this is going to be very dfficult for me and I'm sure for the rest of you. Shelley THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for doing this blog for our sweet Robynn...She has inspired me to be true to myself and to take life one day at a time- HUGS & KISSES XOXOXOXOXOXOX
Dear Goodell Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with your entire family. Our hearts are filled with sadness for your loss, but at the same time grateful to the Lord for giving Robin peace. We will always remember her beautiful smile. She touched the lifes of so many people. We send our love to you and your family.
And the peace of God which, surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippias 4:7
Chris and Tina Sacchini
I am so very sorry for the pain you all must be feeling right now. Robynn was and will always be "our girl" but now she is "our angel" until we are all together again. Robynn's spirit is what angels are made of.
Love to you all,
Kristy Ware and family
I, too, only have heard of Robynn's battle through a friend of a friend...Kim :) I had breast cancer 1 1/2 yrs ago and Kim shared Robynn's story with me. God is a very lucky one today...he has Robynn to share his home with!! We should all be so furtunate that a beautiful daughter, wife, mother, sister, aunt has touched our lives! Even from afar and not personally knowing her...her story has touched my life as well! Robynn-Enjoy your new life and be our inspirational angel that see us throught the rest of our days...you will be lovingly missed!
Love, Jodi Rustice-Palmer
Our prayers are with you all! While sadness fills our hearts, there is peace in knowing that Robynn is no longer suffering. The Lord has shown his mercy on her, and she is free of her broken down body. Amen! I know that she is looking down upon all of us, with that big, beautiful, bright smile. She would want us to love eachother, and live this day to its fullest! God bless you.
When I read your post this morning I felt a strange calm and a peace. I have been torn up about Roby feeling so yucky and I was shocked at how peaceful I felt when I read the post. I can only compare it to being in labor it hurts sooooo much but once you you get through it you don't remember any of the pain and now Robyn has awakened in Heaven and is getting things ready for all of her family and friends to be reunited again. But the best thing of all is that she has a healthy new body and feels wonderful. I have never met Robyn here on earth.....but I can't wait to meet her oneday in Heaven. I will continue to pray for all of Robyn's AMAZING family. Brian you are an INCREDIBLE husband. You will always be in my prayers.
Natalie
Brian and family.
I am so sad for you all right now.
She will forever be your angel watching down over you! She is no longer here in body but in your hearts she will always be.
Brian thank you for sharing your beautiful bride with us and Shelly thank you for making this easier by keeping us all up to date with your great blogs.
I pray for peace and comfort for you all.
God Bless!
Emma
Dear Goodell Family,
Thank you for allowing us to be a part of Robynn's battle. Those of us who were fortunate enough to know her and those who came to know her through the blog are so very grateful for the opportunity to have shared the ups and downs of this journey with you. Although we are all heartbroken over the loss of your angel, we are also relieved that she is no longer suffering. I for one am truly a better person for having known Robynn and I will think of her often.
I also wanted to thank Robynn's loving friends in West Sacramento who helped out in so many ways over the last year. There were fundraisers, blood drives, dinners for the family, house cleaning parties, ect. I wished so many times that I could drop by with a meal or even clean the toliets for her. Not so easy from Bakersfield. I was so relieved to know that she had made such wonderful friends up north who could do those things for them.
Shelly, I am also so very appreciative of your daily updates. I would have been sick with worry and anxiety over not knowing her condition along the way. And altough the news was not always good, it was still better than not knowing! Thank you
***To those of you who are planning to travel to the funeral from West Sac or wherever. We would be happy to help out with arrangements. We even have room at our home if needed. Please e-mail me at tosando@yahoo.com
Sincerely,
Tonya Sandoval & Family
My heart is aching for your family. My prayers are with you all during this difficult time.
Brian, Shelley and the entire family and circle of friends, I am unbelievably sorry for your loss.
Brian, I have not been a regular to post on the blog but have followed very closely with my wife on the situation. I just wanted to say to you that you have been and are an inspiration and example of what being a devoted husband and Christian man are supposed to be. I could only hope to carry myself in the same way if I ever face such a tragic situation.
Robynn has meant so much to so many. On the day of Kelly's funeral, her tap on my shoulder just floored me. For her to pick herself up to be there for our family is another lesson she left for us about what is important in life - the relationships and love between all of us here left on the earth.
Perhaps the timing of when God chose to take her with Him is another message for us to really focus on the true meaning of Christmas and life itself. As difficult as it is please try to take comfort that she is with her Maker.
You and your family will remain in our prayers and know that my family will be there for you whenever needed.
With much love and sorrow,
Marty S
Brian, Brady, Hailey and Jenni,
My heart hurts for you all today and for all that have been following this and have been truly touched by Robynn...and since I know that Robynn is reading this from a better place you are truly loved and will be missed by us all till we meet again. Rest asure that you (Robynn) Fought the Fight and truly won by the people that you touched, moved and taught to love the Lord by letting them see him work through you. For this I can rejoyce in your life and your legacy. It is now time for us all to stand strong as Robynn would have wanted and continue on spreading her word and love to others. As that other blog said this bites typing with tears flowwing I have never used the backspace key this much...but these tears are of both grief and happiness...grief for our loss and happiness for having known Robynn and knowing that she can now rest while she watches over us all with her caring hand. Sorry
God Bless your family in this time and may we all dwell on the good times and how this wonderful girl and women has touched us all in so many ways.
Thank you so much for your endless bloging and Shelley for giving us all this way to be a part of this experience...you are truly blessed

God Bless you sweetpea! Rest in peace and in the warmth of the Lord. You will be dearly missed.
In profound sorrow, Gaye
Dearest Brian, Hailey, & Brady
While we all knew this was coming, it is still such a shock. We all know where Robynn is(an angel on your tree). But not one of us can imagine your pain Brian, or your childrens. But I believe your wife was such a strong soul, you will never lose her. She will be with you and your children forever. I truly believe that she will watch over you and guide you. As the true angel she was even in life and now doubly so with the Father. My prayers are with you...
I've tried to write several different times and I can't. Robynn I love you so much. I am so thankful you are no longer in pain. Brian, I am so sorry for yours. You are a wonderful man and I am so thankful she had you and Brady and Hailey still do. They are so lucky! You and your children will never leave my thoughts and heart. Love and warmth to you all.
Bree
Brian,
I am here for you and the family. You know where Robynn is now. She hurts no more. I thank you and your entire family for sharing this beautiful angel with me, with us. We have been touched. Robynn's mission is now accomplished here. She's been elevated to the lifelong duty of watching over all who remain behind. She will forever be with us. I am there for you all. I will miss her greatly. She was such a part of God's answer to life. Stand Strong, Be Proud of the gift that God gave to you.
- Choc Chip (Judy)
what can i say that has not already been said??? your family has my love and my faithful service. i will continue to pursue my efforts at raising money for your family. so far...i have about $100 in donations (yes, i have been "passing the hat" where ever i can) and the mary kay fundraiser has raised another $100, but it is STILL GOING STRONG and the family is still in need. i dropped off the pasta last night and there can be more where that came from. just say the word and i am here! i will always be a soldier for army goodell! just ask...please...just ask.
dana killian
My thougts and prayers are with you Brian and your family. I pray you can find peace. Heather
You are in our thoughts. Love to you all!
Love,
Barley and Corey
There are no words left to say, so many have expressed the thoughts I have as well. I read this post at 7:30 am and I still can not come up with the words.
I do want to thank you Shelley for continuously blogging the ups and downs of this journey. I will probably never be able to meet you in person but you have been a pillar in this journey, and so many would not have known about Robynn's battle had it not been for you making the time to share it. I echo what someone else said and hope that through time, there might be some updates on all of you.
Hugs, through tears . . .
Jennifer Salewsky
I am sorry that your mom died today. My family loved your mom. Hailey do you feel sad that your mom died? I love being your frend. Love Melina.
Dear Goodell Family,
I would like to thank you for sharing "your girl" with all of us. I never met Robynn but, felt like I learned what she was about with through this blog. I'm sad that it was time for her to be called home. I'm going to keep praying for all of you. Robynn set a very high standard of how she delat with this cross she carried. Robynn has taught me that I can deal with my cancer with dignity and grace. Robynn's light is so bright you can't help but to be drawn to it. You are a wonderful and loving family that made a circle of love aroung her. I'm sure we all can learn from all of you. God was smart to pick a family to show us what Faith, Love and Hope is all about. May the grace of God be with all of you. Thank you, Debbie
Dearest Family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. My only salvation is that she is no longer in pain. She has been such an inspiration to us all. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Brady and Hailey,
I am sorry you did not have more time with your mom. She was an amazing lady and an exceptional mother. It's ok to cry because you will miss her. I too cry just knowing she is not here anymore. We can be grateful knowing she doesn't hurt anymore. She is in a glorious place and will always be with you.
Brian,
You are something else mister! You strong, courageous, supporting, loving, coaching, Christmas light hangin' man. It is obvious that you have done everything in your power to help Robynn through all of this. She was so in love with you and for good reason. I am sorry she will no longer be by your side, what a loss that is. I am confident, from time to time, she will make her presence known to you when you need it most.
Shelley,
It has taken me all day to send this note. The strength it must have taken to keep us all informed truly is a gift from God. Thank you.
My prayers are with you all. I hope peace will come to you all as quickly as possible.

Robynn Goodell - your smile and giving heart will be missed - I know you are with our Lord and at peace. My family and I will continue to pray for you and your family. To know you for such a short time was a blessing.

What a testament you have all been to your faith. So many have been blessed by your family.
I'm happy Robin is in peace. It was a honor to help care for her.

HEBREWS 13:5
Dear Brian and Family:
May God's presence ease your trembling spirit and give you rest.
HE knows how you feel. HE is ever aware of your circumstances and is your strength, your grace, and your peace. HE is there to cast sunlight into all of your darkened shadows, to send encouragement through the love of friends and family (a.k.a. ARMY GOODELL), and to replace your weariness with new hope.
May your troubled heart find peace and comfort in the knowledge that you are never alone. May your heart heal and memories of love and happiness comfort you always.
Lovingly with Blessings and Prayers~
