Jody was a friend in elementary school, jr.high and high school. We would walk home together from Gullett,play at Northwest park and hang out at at the baseball fields. She was always so kind, funny and enthusiastic for life,with a smile that was award winning. I am sad to know she will not be with us here on earth, but know that she is in a much better place. God Blessed us all with being able to know her.
My sincerest prayers for her family are for Gods healing, peace and comfort. God Bless.
