Jody Christine Butler Moldroski, of Ingraham, Illinois, was freed from her earthly body on May 7, 2023, at her home.
Jody was born on August 10, 1966, to Joe and Judy Butler who survive. Also surviving are sisters Jana South, Joetta McFarland, and Jenessa Lutz, and a brother Jeremy Butler. Also beloved nephews Jacob, Hunter, and Aden, and beloved nieces Jade, Jaci, and Trinity, and four brothers-in-law.
A brother, Johnny Butler (9/30/1967-1/3/1985) preceded her in physical death as well as her maternal grandparents, Willard and Julia Ann (Matlock) Workman, paternal grandparents, John and Emogene (Bales) Butler, and her husband, Kurt Moldroski in 1998.
Her physical death followed almost 26 years of disabilities, illnesses, and pain from an accident on July 19, 1997, when a teenager from Shelbyville ran a stop sign on the Lake Paradise Road southwest of Mattoon and demolished her truck and her “normal” life as she was traveling from patient to patient.
Jody was a hard worker and a kind and caring person who made her presence felt by her smiles and her laughter. Thank You Jody for all the love and kindness. Soar.
Private graveside services will be held at a later date. Arrangements are by Frank & Bright Funeral Home in Flora. Memorial donations are suggested to Clay County Hospice and will be accepted through the funeral home. To share a condolence or memory, visit: www.frankandbright.com
