A memorial Service was held for Dody on October 27, 2008. Joan Adams, Richard Skipper and Lee Roy Reams made sure the Memorial to Dody showed much appreciation to having known Dody in their lives. Joan made sure that everyone who signed Dody's guestbook on this website was invited to the Memorial. They remembered Dody's Christian Science and had Bible readings read at the Memorial. The time they took to ensure all speakers were involved was enormous. For Mike Broad and Glen Charlow to hand out programs, it let them see just how many people loved Dody to have wanted to be at her Memorial. We would guess about 150 people were there. The showing of Dody's film "Women, Women Women!" was very funny, while we were all surrounded by large blow-up photos of Dody in the church. Glen did wonderful work on the Memorial Program showing Dody's career, her love of writing, and her loyalty to Animal Organizations; and Dan Sherman prepared the beautiful large photos of Dody that were set out at the front of the Church. Dan presented and ran the equipment for Dody's movie. The reception was lovely, with wonderful people and food. Many others, including Chris Alexander who sent beautiful large flowers, helped to make Dody's Memorial a special night for all of us who loved her. Here is a separate page of individual Memorial Memories.
