Dearest Jodi,
We are so thankful to have had your loving guidance teaching our kiddos over the years, either at Simpson, CCA or SUMC. When we felt Mary was struggling in the first half of third grade at Simpson, my peace in staying at Simpson was knowing that her classroom shared a door with your class. I knew I could always ask your advice even though you weren't her teacher that year. Upon our eventual transition to CCA, the continued peace we felt just by seeing your presence in the middle school was everything. I always knew you were there to love on Mary as needed. Thank you for being such an amazing teacher and teaching Mary how to dig and work a little harder sometimes.
You are such a gifted teacher, loving mother and wife and a great friend to so many. The world is a better place because of you. We love you, Dave, Ava Mei, Bob & Henry so much and are praying for you all!
Much love,
Alice
