    R.I.P. Mrs. Hodges Although we never met, through Jack, I feel as if I knew you. Jack, Lezlie, and Melodee love and miss you. They will cherish your memories forever. You raised a hell of a great person in raising Jack. You can be proud. You had a lengthy time here on Earth. You are now with the Angels. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

    Dad, Mom and Melodee, Gram lived a long and interesting life. From the stories all of you have shared, she worked very hard to provide for her family. She was a diehard Red Sox fan and she loved Kevin Youkilis - often referring to him! I remember many conversations, some quite spirited, about the Red Sox and how they were playing. May she rest in peace and may your memories of her comfort you at this time. Love, Tammie
