Elegy For Jody Ballew

These photos are from October 12, 2015, when my husband, Jim, and I visited Jody in North Carolina while on our honeymoon road trip from Brewster, NY to visit friends and family down South. We spent the day with Jody at Chimney Rock National Park and had many laughs on our way to the top of the rock! Jim and Jody took a much-needed rest in rocking chairs once we made our way back down. Jim and I had many good times with Jody during the period when he lived at the Bluestone Farm here in Brewster, NY. We have always stayed in touch with Jody and had just spoken to him in August 2025, when we romanced the idea of driving down to Georgia to see Jody as part of our 10-year wedding anniversary celebration. God had other plans. Big love Jody. See you again in the great beyond.
