I just want you to know that I'm thinking about you and I am all day, every day.
I'm on this site MANY times a day (thanks Katie!!!) and I love looking at all the happy pictures of you, Dennis and the kids. It's hard, but it helps. When I'm missing him, I'm here. There are always tears, but some smiles too.
My brother was a lucky man who found a perfect match in you. I remember he told me what made you so different from any other girl, what made you "the one". He told me that when you guys first started dating, he was supposed to call you at a certain time...well, he didn't. That was not okay with you and you really gave him hell! He knew right then that you were feisty and he thought that was very cool. He said that you were the first girl who stood up to him and he liked that.
You gave him a great married life and some very special kids. You knew how important his friends and family were to him and they became your friends and your family. He was always so proud that you became a tried and true Rich who was/is always right there with our family. You knew how much he loved my parents and how he wanted his kids to grow up really knowing them and because of that, you were at their house almost every Sunday, even when most of us weren't.
I love you very much Jodi and I will stay close to you forever. You are my friend and my sister. Dennis asked me and my sisters to always keep you close and I (we) will never, ever let him down.
