Alyssa Terry Goudge (Kardohely)

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Alyssa Terry Goudge, a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend, who lost her brave 2.5-year battle with triple negative inflammatory breast cancer on December 24, 2024, at the age of 30. 

Alyssa’s radiant spirit, strength, and unshakeable love for her family defined her life. As the loving wife of Andrew Goudge, her partner and best friend, Alyssa shared a bond built on unwavering love and mutual respect. Together, they created a home filled with joy, laughter, and the kind of deep connection that lasts a lifetime. Above all, Alyssa cherished her role as the devoted mother to Everette, her loving and beautiful daughter. Everette was the light of Alyssa’s life, and her love for her daughter knew no bounds.

Alyssa’s strength, grace, and beauty were evident in everything she did as a mother, wife and woman. Whether advocating for mental health awareness, creating beautiful works of art, or spending time with her family, Alyssa lived her life with purpose and passion. As a dedicated therapist, she helped countless individuals overcome struggles and find peace, leaving a profound impact with her wisdom, empathy, and strength of character. As a gifted artist, Alyssa found inspiration in the world around her, particularly in her love of the beach, where she found solace and beauty. She also had an immense love for animals and cherished the companionship of her pets, Myla, Jedi, Vader, and Loki, who brought her joy and comfort throughout her life. Her creativity, fiery spirit, and unwavering commitment to helping others left an indelible mark on all who knew her.

Alyssa was the beloved daughter of Tom and Sara Kardohely, who nurtured her with unwavering love and support, shaping her into the compassionate, determined, and caring woman she became. She was also a devoted sister to Lauren Coverdale (Mitchell), with whom she shared a bond that brought both comfort and joy. Alyssa’s deep love for her family was limitless, and her presence was a constant source of light and warmth in their lives.

Her legacy lives on through her the countless lives she touched with her love, strength, and unwavering spirit. Alyssa will forever be remembered for her strength, feisty nature, her beauty, and the incredible impact she had on all who knew her.
