Dodie, Dodie, Dodie. What a wonder woman. We were all blessed to have her and her grace in our lives. I will be forever grateful for the love that she instilled within my family and I.
Looking back, her worries were ceaselessly based on making sure that everyone was taken care of and happy. I love her for this!
When around my grandmother odds were good that you were going to be taken care of. I love her for this!
While in her presence, her attitude was great. I honestly cannot remember a time when she was in an unhappy mood, she truly loved the moments spent with her friends and family and was a beacon of love, joy, and happiness.
My grandma had some good vibes. Man, I love her for this!
Many memories reveal the love and joy that Dodie brought to our lives. From the days of my youth on trips to California, Lake Powell, and the pool — Dodie was always there to give me her love.
In California, on our trips to Disney Land and Sea World, she would make sure that I always had my favorite toast and jam waiting for me at breakfast. And before we left Lakeview she would never forget to ask if I wanted some ice cream. The freezer was always stocked and the answer was always yes!!
This love and care for others was ingrained in Dodie and inevitably she has imbued that aspect of herself within me, within Papa and within her friends and family. I love her for this!
There are countless aspects of Dodie that I love and will forever love. I am sure there are many things that you all love about Dodie. Remember these aspects, she set a great example for us. Cherish your memories and strive to live a little bit like Dodie!
Lastly, feel the light that comes from above — it is Dodie, it is Brandon, it is the light of friends and family lost that Dodie has blessed. Feel and spread this love that Dodie shines down on us. Miss her and always let her love in!
