A spirit that will live in all of you. I’m sure she had plenty of hugs waiting for her. My thoughts are with you all, all those stories, all those memories will bring smiles again.
There will always be a special place in my heart for Jodie! Stood up with her when Jodie and Tim decided to share their life together, which was definitely my honor! I will miss her deeply but know there will be no more suffering and she will finally be with Cory again! And mom and dad!! You will be missed by many, Jodie Girl! So thankful for the memories I have! Fly high and free, my friend, Fly high!
I grew up with Jody through elementary & middle school. Had many great neighborhood memories on Ellis Blvd. whether that be at the old A&W or Seily’s Ice Cream store. RIP my wild friend.
Thanks for the memories
Jodie and I spent many weekends together, our parents were great friends. I was either at her house or she was at mine. Miss those days. You will be missed by many.
Such a great person, and even greater friend, and companion! Always a special place in my heart for you! Rest now and forever be in my heart! Love you always and forever ! Love Always, and Forever Timmy K
We grew up together in Elementary & Jr. High… I remember her as being one of the in the click cool kids that everybody loved, but always very nice to the not so cool kids ( 1 being me!!! ) I always thought of her as a sweet hearted soul, and even though we didn’t stay in touch through the many years I left to travel I always thought about her wondering where she was… We did reconnect right before our small Jr. High school reunion and after our 1st get together it was like we lost very little time between us. After my car went down, then this pandemic it unfortunately had been too long since we had seen each other … So as they say never put anything off that can be done today & Live life for today as there is no tomorrow’s promised…. I know you are flying high with your family, Son Corey… Jody you will be truly missed & forever loved by all of us who ever had the pleasure of knowing you Ms. Thang!!! Pray we meet again someday My Friend !!!
May your light shine forever.
