VermontHunter Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Re: My little brother, hunting partner...Gone at 18 I received a nice PM from Jody's brother Brian last night and thought I would share it with you folks... In hope's that it will give you a better insight as to who Jody really was, I hope you enjoy the read, and remember just how precious life and friendships are... " Thank you for the post, thoughts and prayers... jody was my little bro and a mini-me of me in so many ways, but yet in others was so much more. The boy could build/weld anything. He was already working full time welding and was planning on opening his own welding shop in a few years. He tore apart and rebuilt his entire 4-wheeler and had just completed it 2 days before his accident. At the same time he could get on a computer and make DVDs of him and his friends riding their 4-wheelers or hunting. he built his own Game Cameras and put them out on the farms we hunt. He was the leading scorer and captain of his high school soccer team. And he was my hunting partner for life. First it was going to be the Milk River for a bow hunt for whitetail and then Canada for black bear. Then back to the midwest for Elk that was our plan for the next few years. He went 3-D shooting every other weekend and loved to bow hunt. i am fortunate enough to have been in the tree with him on most of his hunts and was with him on his first gun and bow kill. We were always going to something to do with hunting... Bass Pro every other weekend, a local gun show, the Harrisburg Sportsman Show or 3D shoots we lived to hunt. It will never be the same. Every gun I bought over the past few years was because of him. If his eyes lite up when I mention a certain gun, you could bet I would have it in the gun cabinet by the next season. I was going to give him the 30-30 that I had bought 5 years ago and the gun he shot his first deer/buck with as a graduation present. Sorry to ramble but I have been keeping everyone here together that i just need to let loose a little for myself. I took my 12 year old brother to Bass Pro tonight, he is so excited for hunting season, he thinks Jody is going to bring the big boy his way and if he does you can bet I will be in the stand with him. but nothing seems exciting anymore. Opening days and hunting seasons were more exciting waiting to hear/see what Jody had seen in the woods or sharing with him what I had seen/harvested. It just seems that it will never be exciting again. Jody had just got his bow re-limbed and strung by Parker and just put the finishing touches on his bow. He fletched all of our arrows and set up my new Mathews for me, even though he said that he would never shoot a Mathews and he could out shoot me any day with his. I remember the first time he bow hunted, he was in a tree with me and I called up 3 bucks that morning and every time one would come by i thought I would fall out of the tree because Jody was shaking so bad that the tree was swaying... and then the first time he missed and the first time he connected. I know I have those memories and I am grateful for those. But it does not make sense why god had to take him. Jody was loved by so many people in so many ways as witnessed by over 1,000 people showing up for his viewing/funeral. We are still getting cards in the mail and its been a month already. Some ways it feels like it was last night and others its like its been years. But it also seems like he is not gone. Every night I tell myself he is gone, but when I wake in the morning I expect to hear or see him. Well I have taken enough of your time...Thanks again for everything!

Rhino Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Re: My little brother, hunting partner...Gone at 18 Thanks Luke for adding the note from Brian. I am so sorry to hear something like this happen to anyone especially someone so young that seemed to have so much life ahead of them. My thoughts and prayers are with you Brian along with all of your family and friends. I hope that cool breeze blowing across your face this fall while in a treestand lets you feel Jody's presence and fills you with excitement knowing he's with you again.

Guest Bowhunter2114 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Re: My little brother, hunting partner...Gone at 1 Its amazing the things that come together or help in times like these. There are so many things going on in Memory of Jody. We are holding a Golf Tournament to raise money for the Fund in his name that will be turned into our little brothers Scholarship for college as well as an additional Scholarship to be named in memory of Jody to a graduating senior that meets the criteria I set forth. I am going to also organize a bow shoot in Jodys Name and probably get some hunting prizes to be raffled off at the shoot. And our high school Alumni Soccer Game is going to become a Memorial Game in his name. My mom, dad, sister, myself and Jody all graduated from the same school. Jody Alan Crum 2/15/88-5/26/06 It is hard to put into words just what to say, But Jody you are loved and with us each day. You were many things to each one of us, A son, grandson, so many things to discuss. Brother, cousin and friend you would be, To each one of us a blessing from God you see. Your were a nephew who could do all kinds of things, Be welding, equipment repair, and whatever else life brings. You were far from average in your work and studies, Just ask his family, friends, and his buddies. When you rode your four-wheeler you were at ease, Doing tricks, stunts and jumps just as you would please. Hunting deer with his bow or gun in a tree, He had the most fun hunting with his brothers you see. At school in class, field or shop, You always did your best to rise to the top. 1st place in Ag Mechanics you did take, And upon the honor roll your name did make. You played soccer ever since you were little, Passing the ball or scoring right down the middle. I heard it said that children are the heart and soul, Jody had a heart of gold. He always seemed to have a smile upon his face, A chuckle, a laugh that will never be replaced. Jody believed in living each day to the fullest, Having fun and living life, isn’t that the coolest. Jody we loved you from the start, You will always be missed deep in our heart. We know Jody if you could stand here today, This is what you would say… Thank you Mom & Dad for giving me life, love and care, Thank you sister and brothers for all that we shared. For everyone else thank you for being here today, God needs me now, I best be on my way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Huntergirl Posted July 2, 2006 Report Share Posted July 2, 2006 Re: My little brother, hunting partner...Gone at 1 I loved the storie and poem of Jody it told me who he is. It goes right to my heart in lots of ways. I understand the feeling that is not the same. I had a close freind of mine pass away of cancer at the age of 19 he had just set out unto the world himself. I kept asking WHY? Why did he have to go? And the thing that I can remember that comforted me and still comforts me to this day, Was the paster told a story at the furnal about how when we are born unto this world we dont want to come out its a bit scary, but we do and have lots of things to see and do and have a wounderful life ahead. So when we pass over we dont want to go its a bit scary, but there is a plan for us. The last line of the poem says it all -God needs me now, I best be on my way-.
