To Chad and the Boddie Family. Thank you for sharing Ms. Jenice with use. I serverd with her for many years as a Hostess at PCC and a fellow single mom with much purpose. I have so many memories and she will never be forgotten. Jenice I still have your cream dress you gave me. I probably can't fit it now, not so Fat Free anymore (smile). David, Breaunna and I love you and always will Chad. We send our prayers of comfort.

To Chad, thank you for sharing your mom with me and my family. Jenice was a phenomenal woman and would always greet you with a smile even when she was correcting you. Just the little things she did are what were so special about her. We thank God for allowing her to deposit a piece of herself in us. We will always cherish our memories. Chad, we all miss you may God comfort you times of sorrow.
And to the Boddie family, we also want to thank you for sharing Jenice with us. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

To Chad, the Boddie family and friends,
I would like to say that Jenice was such a loving caring person. She loved serving at our church Pacific Christian Center. I will miss seeing her smiling face there. Chad, I still have the picture taken of you and Michelle with Gov. Gregoire at the capitol in Olympia. We love you and miss you. May God's grace and peace be with you all.

To Chad, the Boddie family and friends:
I was meditating on what to write in the guest book...actually I was procrastinating... when I decided to straighten up an area by my back door. I found a tote bag that I haven't used for awhile. The inside pocket had something in it. It was a piece of real pretty costume jewelry that I thought I had lost. Well, this was Jenice's bracelet that I had commented on to her, I said that is so pretty. Later that day she came up behind me and placed it in my hand. She said she never liked it that much.
Really and truly she was a giving and loving person. I have many happy memories and I know she is with our Saviour. Love and Peace

To Chad, family, co-workers,& friends:
I thank God for Jenice. She was my personal assistant at PCC...her church home in Tacoma, Washington. My husband, Pastor Shorter and I will always cherish the many hours she worked right beside us. She loved God, and served Him faithfully. I can't express the countless hours she
gave to help make my work easier. We had wonderful talks in the kitchen at the church. She personally helped me with various department in the church. We had fun exercising in the Fat Free program that I founded and Jenice jumped right in to help keep things moving. The last time I was with Jenice was at her house. I got together some of the ladies and we gave her a taco feast. Jenice and I exchanged many gifts over the years. She was a giving person, a down to earth person and a wonderful mother to Chad. She had an opportunity to travel with me when I was invited to speak. There are so many great memories with Jenice, and so many fun stories I have of her.

Jenice, thank you for being a committed member, and my spiritual daughter...you fought a good fight...

Love and miss you...

I am so thankful that we had the opportunity to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas with Aunt Jenice. Through it all, she remained determined to fight and keep the faith. I admired her for that.

I love her and will miss her dearly, but I am at peace knowing she is able to speak in her normal voice, breathe without an oxygen tank, and has no more aches and pains.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I loved Jenice like a sister and have so many fond memories of her all the way back to high school. We both married around the same time and shared some great times as married couples. I know Jenice had a relationship with the Lord because we talked about it. We can all be comforted knowing she is with Him now. The joy of the Lord our strength!

Jenice was best friends with my sister during high school and they maintained a close relationship throughout the years. I had the unique opportunity of suggesting her son's name, Chad. My sincere condolences to him and all of your family and I pray God's Comfort and Strength for you at this time.

Dr. and Mrs. Brian Robinson would like to express our condolences to the Boddie family. We never had the honor of meeting Ms Jenice but was told what a phenomenal woman she was. Although the earth has lost her physical body, heaven has gained an angel.

To Ms. Jenice's family, we are very sorry for your loss. We all miss Auntie Jenice, she was like our second family. I've known her and Chad since I was about 6 years old, and she was an amazing, wonderful, beautiful person insideout. She always put others ahead of herself and was just so kind. We will miss her terribly, but we all know that she is up in heaven just like the angel she is.
God is with you during this time of grieving, and you are in our prayers. Keep the faith.
Love, Coach Donna & Lindzey.

May God's peace comfort you and your family during this time of loss. Love, Coach Donna & Lindzey Hilley

She will surely be missed. She always had a sweet smile. We will keep chad and the rest of the family in our prayers. When my sister passed away at a young age I found Joshua 1:9 comforting. May God comfort you in this time.

I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to Chad, and all of Jenice's family. At this time there really are no words that help to ease the pain. I just lost my father to Lung Cancer in October, I am sure he met Jenice as she entered her eternal home. Jenice showed so much grace in her fight against this awful disease, I am trying to do the same in my battle with breast cancer. I was a coworker, as well as a friend, and it was an honor to have known her. I know that I will see her again. I hope you can find comfort in knowing that one day we will all be together again, with no pain, or disease thanks to God's promise.

I would like to extend our deepest sympathies to Jenice's family especially Chad. We have had the pleasure of knowing Jenice and Chad for many years. She was a great mother and a very speial dear friend. She a a great zest for life and she had a love that was beyond understanding for everyone that she meet. She is going to be dearly missed. May the Lord and all his mighty wisdom bless you all with peace and comfort in your time of grief.

I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to Jenice's family. I have had the pleasure to work with Jenice over the past couple of years in Lakewood Washington. There is not a kinder, gentler person and yet able to demonstrate an inner strength that few could match. The Letter Carriers of Lakewood Station and Tacoma Washington share your grief. May God bless and console her family as I am sure he will bless and watch after her.
