  9. Williston North Dakota
    There are never quite the right words to say to lessen the pain of having to say an earthly goodbye to someone so dear to our hearts — family, friends, co-workers . . . Jody touched the lives of everyone he met, even people he never knew or did not know him personally. I was and am still in awe, how he was a young boy one day, and grew to a fine young man the next and have spoke of him often with pride over the years. He left a lasting impression which is sealed in our minds and hearts forever to be opened at our will as something we see, a word we hear reminds us of him and we reminisce. My thoughts, tears and prayers are intermingled with yours at this very sad time with deepest sympathy.

  28. Twin Valley MN
    I am sorry to hear about Jody. He was a wonderful person inside and out. There are many great memories that we will have to carry with us. I will always remember “Daniel Boone”. He always had a smile and kind words to lift you up when you were down. The one memory that I will always be grateful for and treasure was when I was in the hospital after having Morgan, it was almost discharge time and he stopped up from work to see us. Jason was not quite there yet and the doctor was worried about a skin tag Morgan had on her neck. They called in the neonatologist because she thought it may be cancer. Jody stayed with me (even though he should’ve went back to work) until after the doctors came in and said everything was fine. I was so grateful to have someone to lean on as I was very scared something was wrong with my baby. Of course that afternoon when we got home, he came and picked up Jason to take him fishing! He thought Jason needed a little break! We will forever miss and love you Jody!
