Marine Lance Cpl. Johnathon K. Goffred was remembered as a devoted friend during funeral services this morning at St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church on Indianapolis’ Far Southside.

“The word which best captures the essence of John is ‘friend,’” the Rev. Robin Myers told the gathering of nearly 150 people at the church on Thompson Road.

Goffred, 22, White River Township, was found dead Jan. 26 in his barracks at Camp Pendleton in Southern California. The Navy Criminal Investigative Service is investigating Goffred’s death, and has not released any details on how it occurred.
