Jodie Lynne Ortez Carpenter

Jodie Lynne Ortez Carpenter passed away peacefully January 9, 2020 surrounded by loving family. Jodie was born to John Ortez and Vicki Anderson in Murray, Utah. 

She married Richard Carpenter and had four children: Richard Jr., Lacey (Kameron), Traves (Shantell) and Dalton. Jodie is survived by Richard; 3 children; 4 grandchildren; her dad; brothers; and sisters. She is preceded in death by her son Dalton; brother Kevin; and mother Vicki. 

Jodie was a true Matriarch of the family. She was the neutral middle ground that anyone could talk to. No matter what time of day or night she would always be willing to help or listen. Jodie’s true passion in life was cosmetology. She loved making everyone’s day with helping them look fantastic. She was truly amazing, and she will be missed greatly!
