My payers go out to the Batts Family. I met Jody when in was still in pampers and my mother and his mother became friends, that made me the babysitter of both Jody and his big sister Shannon.I was only in the 3rd grade at the time, we live upstairs from them, as time went on we moved, then we move again next door to the Batts family. I contiune to be the babysitter. He was a beautiful little baby and grow up to be a handsome young man. He is now in a better place with God. RIP...
Love always
