Goodner served with the Collinsville Police Department for eight years as a regular officer, before being deployed to Afghanistan.

“It’s a shame for not only his family, but our community and everyone in this region what we lost with this man’s life being cut short," Smith said.

Goodner is survived by his wife, Gwen, and their four children.
