Christy Goodman

Christy Goodman, 54, passed peacefully at Johnson City Medical Center late Wednesday night, November 11, 2026. Christy was born in Kingsport, TN, raised in Fall Branch, TN, and spent the majority of her life in Johnson City, TN. She spent the last 10 years working in Shipping at Graphic Disorder, but in her younger years, she travelled the country working for MotoGP following her passion, which was photography. She enjoyed anything that went fast, trying new recipes, cabins, bears, and the beach. She was also a die-hard foodie, avid sneaker collector, and lover of many little knick-knacks.

Christy was loved by everyone she met and didn’t know a stranger. She brought such a bright light into every room she walked in. She was someone you could come to laugh with, cry on, or talk about the universe with. She made every adventure or small moment into something memorable, whether that be with funny jokes or the brightest shoes you could imagine.

Christy is predeceased by her parents, Ricky and Cathy Dunn.

She is survived by her daughters, Jessica Patterson and husband James and Bailey Mckee; son, Christian Mckee; partner, Joseph Earnest; brother, Bruce Dunn and wife Alisha; sister, Alicia Wilson; and many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins. She was a loving grandmother to her grandkids, Kloe and Ethan Patterson, and fur-babies, Nico and Stewart Bartholomew Earnest the 2nd.

The family will receive friends from 1pm – 3pm on Sunday, November 15, 2026 at Hamlett Dobson Funeral Home, Fall Branch. A service will follow at 3pm with Pastor Mike Hubbard officiating. A graveside service will take place following the service at Fairview Cemetery, Jonesborough.

Family and friends will serve as pallbearers.

If anyone feels inclined to do so, I would like to ask for people to donate to the Johnson City Recovery Center in Christy’s honor.
