I was a childhood friend of the Dye family and I remember Jody when he was a little boy. His sister Jeanie and I use to baby sit him and his brothers! I will always remember him as a smiling happy red head with freckles and the BEST attitude when it came to doing things. He was the one who always gave us the least trouble. I had not seen him after his sister graduated in 1970 & when I heard of this terrible thing that happened to him, I could not believe it! I leave for his family my heartfelt sympthy and for Jody I hope to meet your family one day and maybe get to see that glimpse of you in them.
