What tremendous loss of such a fine young man. It was my pleasure to have with such an energetic and friendly young man. His presence will certainly be missed in the store. My condolences to his family. Had I known I would have most certainly attended the services. Bob Renner
I fondly remember years of learning martial arts with Dolan and his family. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all.
I am so sorry to hear this. I saw Dolan not to long before this happened when I was at Discount Trophies. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this sad time.
My heart goes out to the family! I loved doing martial arts with Both Dolan, his brother and Mrs. Goff. I hope you all have some peace and rest in this time. May God keep you close to his heart during this time.
So very sorry to hear about this horrific tragedy . I loved having Dolan in class. He was such a neat kid! Praying for his family and sending much love to them.
I have done business with Discount Trophies for years. I didn't know his name, but I picked up my order from Dolan days before his life tragically ended. We laughed and joked when I picked up the gift, an engraved bottle of liquor. He was very personable in the short time I interacted with him.
I would like to extend my sincerest condolences to his family and friends. I cannot imagine the extent of your pain.
Prayers to your entire family on your tragic loss.
Prayers and sympathy for Dolan's family. I didn't know him personally, but he always was very nice and friendly at his workplace. My thoughts are with all of the family today.
My thoughts and prayers are with you, and have been with you during this difficult time. May our loving God continue to wrap you up in His arms, so you can feel His presence. Hold tight to your treasured memories of Dolan.
Dolan was a good hearted man. He will be missed. I send my condolences to the family and friends. My prayers are with all of you. May his legacy live on and never be forgotten. RIP Dolan.
Dolan was a just a ray of sunshine for our family. He captured our hearts and our hearts are breaking at this time. Our hearts are also looking forward to the day we will be reunited with Dolan in heaven.
I remember one of the times Dolan and Ashley came to our house. Ashley wanted to go visit ''Grandma'' Jewel soooo they decided to drive across our pasture. Unfortunately, we had a lot of rain in the last few days and ended up stuck. Jimmy decided he could pull Dolan's truck out with his truck, well Jimmy ended up getting stuck also. We had to call a tow truck to pull both trucks out of our pasture. Dolan we love you and will miss you until we met again.
Sheri and Steve, I was watching the news tonight and saw your loss. I remember coming to your store with my late husband, Wayne Smith. He was always buying trophies for his crews at Southwestern Bell Telephone Company and for golf tournaments. He always looked forward to visiting with y'all. I am so sorry for your loss. Please know y'all with be in my thoughts and prayers. God bless your families.
Sheri, Dino & Garrett, I know there are no adequate words of comfort to share with you in the tragic loss of your son. I am totally sure that Uncle Randy was there to welcome him into the Kingdom of God with a smile on his face and his arms opened wide. While God's plan is so often not understood, I am certain that Dolan had fulfilled his purpose on this earth. It is okay to grieve and go through all the stages of it and for however long you need it. Just know that there is an army of people praying for all of you and for resolution of this situation.
In Christ's Love that we Live,
Patience, Abbey and Will Holt

My thoughts and prayers are with the Goff/Mayfield families! Dolan was a great young man and I always enjoyed visiting with him when I stopped in Discount! Just heartbroken for you all!!!
So sorry for your loss. In the brief time I met him, he was such a funny guy.
I am at a loss for words. Many prayers and a lot of love to you and your family during this time.

Though we never met in person… Till we meet again, my friend. U changed my life for the better. I will always remember you. My best wishes to all who were close to you.
Dolan was a very caring young man by always helping when there was a need. That kind is far and few between. He was funny, fun, and respectful. Life is not fair, but thankfully God is. May God bless and comfort his family. With sincerest sympathy. Judy Park
To Dolan's parents, his Grandparents and his Uncle Jason please know I am praying for all of you to be able to find peace in all the happy times you all shared with him. He would not want any of you to be in pain or sad because that wasn't what he wanted for you. From what his Grandma Theresa told me he was the type that wanted everyone happy and was so full of life and so helpful. There is no way to explain this senseless loss and no words to help. All I know is the best way to honor him is to find peace and trust he is now with God and will watch over you always. Love you all.
I had lost touch with Sheri and Sidney some years ago & when I saw this on the news, I was hoping it was about a different Dolan Goff. Such a sad & untimely tragedy, I hate that I didn't get to know Dolan.
So sad to hear this news- Dolan was such a sweet spirit with a beautiful smile. I'm so sorry - My prayers are with your family.
Deno, I am so sorry for your loss. I am hear if you need someone to talk to.
So very sorry to hear this news. All of our thoughts and prayers. Scott and Jennifer Caldwell
My sincerest sorrow to Sheri, Gunnar, and all of the family, for the tragic loss of your dear son and family member, Nolan. I wish I had the honor to have met him in this life. Heaven gained a young angel far too soon. My heartfelt thoughts and feelings are with you all, now and in the times to come. Sincerely & love to you, Little Cindy
Dolan we had some really good times. I will always remember your first dirt bike ride straight into the closest tree. Lol I really enjoyed teaching you and Garrett how to ride motorcycles. I will always miss your hugs! Rest in peace buddy. I love you. Brian
Our thoughts and prayers for the entire family.
My happy sweet Dolan that brought a ray of sunshine to our family and everywhere you go. Thank you for loving my precious Ashley and all her family!! You will for ever be in our hearts! Till we meet again we will keep your memory and love alive!!
Love and prayers to you Sheri and Delano.
Verda, Lloyd and family we are remembering you all in our prayers! May the Holy Spirit hover near you all and give you peace and rest. One step at a time!
I was heartbroken when I heard this about Dolan. I get pretty close to my students after having them for three years. Dolan was always quick with a smile and will be missed by many. Prayers are with you all.
Stunned and saddened to hear the news about Dolan's passing. Keeping you all in our hearts during this difficult time.
I first met Dolan in kindergarten, and we continued in school together through our senior year. Dolan would bring his snapping turtles for show-and-tell. We would play together on the play ground. In high school we spotted each other in the gym. The only time I got detention was with Dolan. During biology class we sneakily zip tied backpacks together, and Mr Phillips didn't think it was as funny as we did. After school I moved away, and we lost touch, but I will never forget his laugh....May your soul dance free, old friend. My sincerest condolences to Dolan's parents and Garrett.
Love and prayers to you Sheri and Delano.
Dolan is in the presence of Jesus so my prayers now are for each of you who are heartbroken and suffering. I wish I had the perfect words to make this better but sadly I do not. Most importantly though I pray God will hold you extra close to Him for comfort. All my love, Aunt Laura
Dolan, an adventurous ball of excitement! No matter what he was doing, it was usually 110% when he set his mind to it! I will always cherish the memories we had: whether it was giving our teachers a hard time or being competitive on the football field! He had that kind of smile you just didn't forget and a huge heart for everyone around him! You will be missed!!
Dolan, my buddy! I love you & my heart is broken. Grandpa Lloyd.
As his great aunt, Dolan was always a Great nephew. Always willing to help me move big plants, get in the attic for me, anything I asked of him he cheerfully did. He was a gentle soul and loved all those around him and always had a big smile and hug.
Debbie Bonds
Dolan,
Your passing leaves a gapping hole in my heart. Your Uncle Steve and I loved your giving and kind heart. That smile could light up a room and lift the spirits of the weary and saddened. It is not for me to understand why God needed you more in Heaven than He thought we needed you here on earth but I know one day I will see that sweet smile again and my heart will be whole again. ❤️❤️
Grammy loves you so much Dolan. You gave so much love & joy. You had to leave us way to soon but we are better people for loving you. '"
Prayers for the Goff, Mayfield, and McCarty families. Great young man from a great family. May God give you peace and comfort during this trying time.
Dolan, life will not be the same without you. My heart goes out to your family especially Ashley. I have just been in total disbelief thinking maybe they were wrong but Ashley confirmed your death. I will miss going out to eat with you especially Cracker Barrel's dumplings. I love you go rest high on your mountain. '❤️'❤️'❤️'❤️'❤️'
I love you Dolan
We truly do not have words to express how sad we are about this senseless tragedy! Dolan was an exceptional young man from a wonderful family. Our love and prayers go out to all the Goffs and Mayfields.
