David M. Bodily

LaRue and I are deeply sadden by the news of David's passing. We are very sorry we were not in town for the funeral. Our sincere sympathy to Bethalene and the family. He was a very outstanding person and father and was respected by all that knew him.

My sincere condolences to all of Dave's family. We all have lost a great friend whose warmth and humor touched all who knew him. May the Lord be with you to grant you His comfort until you meet Dave again in world's to come.
Sincerely, President Tony Middleton

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow. May the Lord bless and sustain you at this difficult time. I did not know your husband and father, but I know one of his sons and because of that relationship I carry the greatest respect for your family.

Sister Bodily and Family,
Our love and sympathy to you for a great husband and dad. I will always remember Dave in a scout uniform trying his best to get a bunch of roudy boys to cooperate. This is one scout who appreciated his effort. Thanks Dave for influencing my life! Love to all of you dear friends, Joe & Anne Kjar

My deepest condolences to the family of the late Brother David Bodily
It was my privilege to serve as missionary companion to Bro. Bodily in the Japan Far East Mission. I learned so many wonderful things from him because of his faithfulness, devotion, and strong testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Because of his good-nature, we got along very, very well. I hope I'll be worthy enough to have the privilege of meeting him again beyond the veil.

Dear Family members of 'Bodiree Choro'
As you can tell, I was a missionary in Japan during the '3-year' mission time and at one time served in a branch where there were other elders, one of whom was Elder Bodily. David and I seemed to have much the same sense of humor and I enjoyed his friendship and companionship very much.
David's accomplishments surely leave a powerful legacy that will be a constant source of strength to you of his family as well as his students.
It is always...

I was so sorry to hear about David.
I send my sincere sympathy and love at this time.

The Bodily's and the world have lost a really great man. I was raised with David and he was a straight-arrow young man. His examples of intelligence and goodness have always impressed me. His contributions to science, to his church, and to humanity are very significant in my opinion. I shall miss seeing him at our hign school reunions. May the Lord bless and comfort his family in this time of temporary separation.

Dr. Bodily was a professor of mine several years ago. I appreciated his humor and his respect for his students. He will certainly be remembered fondly by those lucky enough to have had a class or two under his instruction.
