Jodi Jannelle Eads

Our beloved Jodi Jannelle Eads (Cooper), 48, of San Antonio, Tx, left us to be with her Savior on Tuesday, November 29th, 2016. Jodi was loved and adored by her husband of 29 years, Jeffrey Dale Eads Sr, and loving son Jeffrey Dale Eads Jr. Jodi was born in Tucson, Arizona. She was raised and attended primary schools in El Paso and Houston until the family moved to Tyler, Texas. Attending Tyler ISD, Jodi graduated from Robert E. Lee High School in 1986, during which time she met and fell in love with her high school sweetheart, whom she couldn't wait to marry. Jodi's most proud accomplishment was being a mom to her and Jeff's son, Jeffrey. They loved traveling to the Orange County and Laguna Beach, California areas. Disneyland and various amusement parks were their favorite vacation activities. Playing her favorite music for her family on her grand piano was also one of her favorite pastimes. Preceding her in death were grandparents Haley Hause and Lucia Lydia (Hanna) Harvey of Tucson, Az., and Nadine (Mitchell) Cooper of Roswell, N.M. Jodi is survived by her husband Jeff and son Jeffrey. Her parents John and Mary Jo Cooper of Tyler, Texas, sister Julie Simmons (Stephen) of Garland, Tx. In-Laws Norman Eads of Tyler, Tx., Judy Hall of Troup, Tx., David and Cindy Eads of Little Elm, Tx, Joe and Michealle Spencer of Troup, Tx., John and Kelly Eads of Tyler, Tx., and Alan and Arlena Eads of Troup, Tx. Jodi loved and doted on her nieces and nephews Jeremy and Heather Spencer of Troup, Tx., David and Rachel Eads of Great Lakes, IL, Taylor and Justin Esquibel of Ft. Worth, Tx., Stephanie and James Barrans of Grand Prairie, Tx., John Michael Eads of Tyler, Tx., Garrett Eads of Little Elm, Tx., Alana Rae Eads and A.J. Eads, both of Troup, Tx. Great nephews Wyatt, Brandon, Noah, and Jaxon, and great niece Emmy. They will all miss her dearly. With an infectious laugh, sense of humor, and heart of gold, Jodi loved people and this is what endeared them to her. Assisting many causes, philanthropy was a passion of hers to help those in need and paying it forward. A visitation will be hosted by Jeff and Jeffrey on Monday evening the 5th of December from 7-9 pm. A celebration of the spirit and kind heart we were honored to know and love as Jodi Jannelle Eads will begin at 2pm on Tuesday, December 6th at the Porter Loring Mortuary North. Both services will be held at 2102 N Loop 1604 E, San Antonio, Texas 78232. To honor her, Jodi passionately requested that in lieu of sending flowers, donations be made to the Pancreatic Cancer Society @www.pancan.org.
