Whenever I saw Jody, she was always laughing. She had such a wonderful zest for life! Her girls clearly meant the world to her, and she clearly loved every moment that she had with them and Bruce. It was a privilege to know her.

To Robbin/Handell family: We are at a lost for words on losing our friend. The memories of every single moment that we spent together with you, your families and all of our friends will keep in our hearts. She was the most giving and selfless person I know. I will miss my weekly Monday afternoon calls with my sweetie - checking in on each other. Bruce, Tami and Emily, your strength and Jody's is amazing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and know that Jody will always be in our hearts. We are forever grateful to have been blessed to be part of Team Jody's world.
