Jode attended schools in Ammon and was currently in fourth grade at Midway Elementary in Menan. She is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She was also a member of The Girl Scouts of America and sold over a thousand boxes of Girl Scout cookies every year. She loved to ride her dirt bike and snow machine and always wanted to go faster. She picked out her number, which was 27, and applied it and a number of decals on her motorized toys. In 2001 she met super cross champion Jeremy McGrath. Jeremy and his crew spent time with her and gave her some signed souvenirs. It was an experience often talked about and described in detail. Jode also loved camping, fishing, driving grandpa's boat, playing football with her brothers, board games, making crafts with Mom, babies, visiting family and friends, and teasing everyone, especially her Dad. On June 12, 2001, Jode and her family went on a family vacation to Disney World. The trip was made possible by the Make a Wish Foundation. Jode and her family spent eight wonderful days together doing whatever she wanted to do, staying at Give Kids the World in Kissimmee, Florida. She was a true inspiration to everyone she met. Her courage and strength amazed everyone she knew. She was a true angel and will be greatly missed by all that knew her. Jode died at home with family, after a two-year battle with cancer at age 10.
