Goldie Marie Huskey (née Mundine), age 83, passed away peacefully surrounded by her husband and children on October 13, 2026, at 7:32 PM in Ocala, Florida, from lung failure. She entered this world on October 6, 1943, in Newport, North Carolina. Over the course of her full and vibrant life, she resided in Central Florida for most of her early years, followed by two decades in Cobb County, Georgia, and her final few years in Floral City, Florida.
Goldie was a devoted Christian, wife, and mother who lived her life as a testament to her faith and profound love for her family. She was widely known for her deeply giving nature, her uncompromising devotion to the well-being of her family, and the pure, radiant joy she found in feeding and nurturing others. A creative soul, Goldie also expressed her deep faith and love for life through writing beautiful poetry, leaving behind a treasure of written words for future generations.
She is survived by her loving husband of 63 years, Murl Huskey; her daughters, Klista Snider (of Winter Haven, FL) and Kim Sowers (of Powder Springs, GA); and her son, Tim Huskey (of Huntersville, NC). She also leaves behind a beautiful legacy through her six beloved grandchildren, listed in order of age: Brianne Snider, Jessie Huskey, Lynelle Huskey, Ryan Snider, Kaley Sowers, and Sierra Sowers, all of whom she cherished deeply.
