Jodi was born December 11, 1965 in Shenandoah, Iowa, and is 1 of 5 children. Although she moved around frequently, the Midwest was always what she called home. While her Military service was brief she found a home with Veterans and enjoyed volunteering with the Honor Guard. In her later years she enjoyed learning as many new creative hobbies as she could, including crochet, diamond art, and painting. But that all came second to her favorite hobby, reading. She was a very creative storyteller and lived to make people smile and laugh.

She is survived by; her father, Jim Kalkas; Sister, Jeanne Fanning and husband Steve Fanning, Brother and Sister-in-Law Randy and Julie Drenner; Brother, Jim Drenner; Brother and Sister-in-law Eric and Naomi Drenner.
