It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Jody Lynne Vann who left us on March 18, 2026, at the age of 70. Born on March 4, 1956, in Cincinnati, Ohio, to the late Franklin and Helen (nee Ping) Steele. Jody lived a life rich in love, family, and cherished memories. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, and a proud matriarch to her family, always supplying them with feelings of immeasurable love and comfort.
Jody had a vibrant spirit that brought joy to everyone around her. Her outgoing, spunky personality was matched only by her deep love for her family, especially during the cherished moments spent together at the lake. Whether boating or basking in the sun on the beach, Jody created lasting memories and shared countless smiles with her loved ones in those serene moments by the water. Jody enjoyed everything second of life and savored each and every moment.
Jody was the beloved wife of the late Gary L. Vann; Loving mother of Jamie (Shawn) Phillips and Joshua (Dana) Malone; Cherished Mamaw of Kali Phillips, Kaya Phillips, Kira Phillips, Andrew Felix-Malone, and Miles Malone; Dear sister of Judy, her twin, Debbie, and the late Diana.
