HOLLIS – Goodwin Hannaford died on Saturday, April 10, 2021, after fighting years of declining health with his signature determination. Born on June 14, 1944, to Olive Wiley Hannaford and R. Floyd Hannaford, Goodwin was proud of his ancestry which included poet Robert Frost, explorer Robert Peary, and his grandfather, Arthur Goodwin “Doc” Wiley who established the Buxton Hollis Community Hospital in Bar Mills in 1924.
Goodwin attended grade school in Buxton and graduated from Gorham State Teachers College in 1966. In high school, he helped found “The 97’s” hot rod club and was proud to still have his 97’s jacket and plaque. He remained friendly throughout his lifetime with many of his grammar school friends.
