    I just now heard that Jody had passed away... I am so sorry. He was a great man who helped me many times as a car dealer. He was patient, kind, and caring. He also prayed for and checked on me during my struggle with cancer. We would share our stories, our concerns, and our faith in God. I am sorry I lost touch with him the past few months although he was still in my thoughts and prayers. He will be missed by all.

    Jodi was a all around sweet, kind & honest person. I have purchased several cars from Jodi in Osceola and Marked Tree. He was always the one I went to. I have known this family through the Happiest days of their lives and the Saddiests. I had lost touch with all of them but Jodi and I would occasional see him from time to time. I was so shock when I heard Judy has passed. She was Jodi's heart. Jodi never changed, he was the same person every time you saw him. He would always ask how everyone was doing and then he would speak about his family so loving. Jodi lived for his family and the ones he loved. If you ever met him you would never forget him. I smile every time I think of them. He fascinated my daughter Payton with his thumbs. He loved to play tricks on her when she was little. The extra side thumb amazed her. I can still hear him laughing at her. We had some great times at Jeannie and Harold's house.If you never got to know Jodi Wynn you lost a chance of a life time because, he was a person that made a huge impression on you. I will miss you my friend I was so blessed to have known you all. I am so sorry for your loss Tina, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

    Jody was kind, thoughtful and loving. He always cared enough about others that he would listen to their stories, give advice and encouragement. Jody showed the love of Jesus in so many ways to me and my daughter. I know that I will never the same after knowing Jody. He has always been there when we needed him and never expected anything in return. After Jesus died on the cross, he gave 2 commandants to live by to love God with all your heart and love others. Jody completed his assignment here on earth and is walking with Jesus in Heaven. What a legacy to leave behind. I pray for comfort for his family and friends.

    We are so very sad to hear of your dad''s passing LaTina. Jody & Judy were former neighbors. Jody was so nice & had a smile on his face. He always kept his lawn so neat. We lost touch after your parents moved from our neighborhood on Briarcrest Court but certainly enjoyed them as neighbors. We had no idea Jody was ill. Our thoughts & prayers are with you & your family.

    My favorite bible verse in memory of Jody. 1 Corinthians 13:13 And now these three remain faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is LOVE. Jody you showed Love & gave Love to everyone who met you. I admired your acts of kindness, desire to help those in need and the love & smile on your face when you talked about Sweet Sassy. May God comfort your family during this very heartbreaking time. With very sincere sympathy & Love. Pamela Hammond Houston
