Jodie graduated from Wichita Falls High School, Wichita Falls, TX, and Yale School of Nursing, New Haven, CT. Everyone that knew Jodie knows that at the center of it all was her husband, John. They were married 51 years before his death in 2011.
Active in her community and committed to volunteerism, Jodie was passionate about caring for others. She took great pride in her work in Hospice's founding days in Branford, CT, in the early 1970's. Her hospice work continued when she and her husband John lived in NH with the Lake Sunapee, VNA, and when she returned to Madison ten years ago. Jodie served on several boards, the Lake Sunapee Region Visiting Nurse Association and the Sugar Riverbank, NH. An active member of the Junior League of New Haven and her churches wherever she lived, Jodie was incredibly proud of her community-focused volunteer programs. Especially the philanthropic educational organization, which focuses on women's advancement and educational opportunities, P.E.O. Chapter T, Madison.
