What Goddard did not share was that she holds the record for having spent the longest number of loyal, committed years affiliated with The Dayle McIntosh Center (DMC) being “of service” at the highest level. From joining the mission and cause as one of the earliest of Board Members, she dutifully answered Brenda Premo’s call to be of support as DMC was incubating waiting to be realized; to being President of the Board through 1992 during transitional years of change; and later a Board Member at Large, retiring from DMC’s board in January 2023. Premo has acknowledged publicly, that if it were not for Goddard working at California State University Long Beach as an educator, being Dean of Students, facilitator and catalyst for change, championing Premo to moving the ‘lunch bunch’ of disabled students on campus forward to have a voice and get involved in creating the Disabled Students Center, a spark and series of events would not have happened to where Premo would meet Dayle McIntosh in the first place. Additionally, Premo wouldn’t have met key people to rally around her to be able to carry out tasks and carry onward at the tender age of twenty-six without the other activities from CSULB tied to the connections to create the rest of DMC’s Dream Team after Dayle’s passing.
