Jodie was an amazing person. We met when she lived in Los Angeles for a period, and we always stayed in touch. She was a true-blue friend with a great spirit, who will be greatly missed.

To Frank, Sharon and family my sincere condolences at the loss of Jodie. As a lifelong friend of her Mother Sharon I watched Jodie grow from childhood into the beautiful woman she became. Every time we ran into each other and shared conversation she was always the same loving, caring and compassionate person she was. Always a smile and a story or remembrance of the past and so wonderful just to talk to. She was truly a lovely person.
My condolences and prayers to the family. Jodi and her family lived on Shadowmoor Drive, and was not only a neighbor, but a friend of mine during high school.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Gone to soon !! 🙏
Deepest sadness swept over me as I received this news . I knew Jodie from school but became her friend at Forrest hills where we waitresses together for years. I was always excited to see her newest sports car , and listen to her latest stories . She was an adventurer and she ate life which is what drew people to her . My favorite shifts were when I got to spend time in shenanigans with Miss Jodie. I have such fun memories of my time with her . This was heartbreaking news and I’m so so sorry for your loss .
Sincerely ,
Jeannine Boyd Edwards
