Dear Mother,




The autumn angels have come for you
You’re physical journey has transitioned
Into a new odyssey
You have risen above the twinkling stars
The power of you, Mother
Is the Flower
Ever so gently, gracefully and unfolding
Is your love
...

My dearest Aunt Jody, how precious you have always been. You have always been a kind loving and encouraging lady. I have been really blessed to have you as my aunt and at many times my second mother. My mom loved you with all of her heart, but now you are rejoicing together with all of your loved ones and friends! Thanks for all your love and support! I am a better person for having you in my life! We will be together again, but until then I will always offer love and support to Davey and...

I want to take tis time to thank all the condolences that was sent to Sally and her son's, Davey and Jamey.

I was very fortuanate to be able to be in Tucson last October to see and be able to say good-bye to not only a dear,dear friend but to a woman who was a second mother to me. Her love,laughter-sense of humor and many memories to numerous to mention will never be forgotten. My continued sympathy to best and dearest friends Davey,Jamey and David,the pain never goes away but the great memories are forever! I love you always! Larry Veldkamp-Miss Lilly.

I was saddened to hear of my cousin Jody's death. I remember when she was born to my Aunt Sallie and Uncle Earnest. She was such a beautiful and beloved child. I know that she is now at home with her parents and grandparents having a joyful reunion. My sympathy to Davey, Jamey and David who were so faithful to her throughout her long illness. May God give you peace and comfort. Love and sympathy, Cousin Nancy

I have a lot of good memories from shared times with Jody and David from high school days at East High. And the get togethers on Woodbine Ave. with the Terrys across the street. May God Bless.

I KNEW JODY FROM EAST HIGH AND WAS VERY FOND OF HER AND DAVID. MY CONDOLENCES TO ALL OF HER FAMILY. GOD BLESS YOU ALL

I went to East High School with Sally and also David. I am so sorry to hear of her death. She is at last free of all her pain. She will be missed. I had several classes with her in school and she always kept everyone laughing. Those are good memories.

To Jody's family: Hearing of Jody's death brought back memories from East High School and the fun times we all had. She is in a better place but she still will be missed. My condolences to you.
