I couldn't have asked for a cooler neighbor growing up. He would always tolerate me coming around and pestering him about music and he was the first person to put a guitar in my hands. For that, I will never forget him. A wonderful person, extremely talented musician, and friend to all. My deepest sympathies to Joe, Barb, and the entire Sinclair family.

There are never the right words to say when a loved one is gone from our physical lives. Yet, they are NEVER gone because they have touch the lives of others, sometimes in ways we do not know. Barb, Joe, Ricky - although Kim married "into" your family - after 30 years it is hard not to think of you as my family too. Although it has been a long time since I have seen you all - I share your sorrow in the loss of Jody. Kim would keep me updated in bits and pieces. Jody pursued his passion of music and he DID touch many lives in ways we will never know. I am sorry we cannot be there, however, please know you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love to all

To the Sinclair family,
There truly are no words that can take away the pain you and all of us who know Jody are feeling. Seems that God needed someone of his talent to work on some music for His angelic orchestra. Jode is and will forever remain one of the kindest-hearted souls I have ever met. It is a pleasure and honor to know him and to be a small part in his life.
My deepest heartfelt condolences,
