Jodie Lynn (Harm) Lloyd was born on July 29, 1960, in Murray, Utah. She was called back to heaven on June 18, 2024, in Fillmore, CA, at the age of 63. Life will no longer be the same for many as she is deeply and terribly missed.
Jodie lived in the Lakewood area in her younger years before her family settled in Fillmore around 1973. Fillmore is where she met her lifelong friends, whom she deeply cherished. Jodie graduated from Fillmore High School class of 1979 and loved seeing her friends at the annual alumni dinner, where she enjoyed dancing the night away.
Fillmore is also where she met her soulmate, RayMel Lloyd. Their lives were forever changed for the better. Jodie and RayMel were together for a total of 47 years and married for nearly 45 years. They were planning on renewing their vows this upcoming anniversary in October. They had a special love that allowed them to go through many chapters of life together and yet they continued to choose each other every day.
Shortly after Jodie and RayMel married, they moved to Santa Paula and raised their three children: Travis, Amber, and Nicholas. She was always so proud of her kids and loved them with all of her heart. She attended every sporting event to cheer them on. She was also a bonus mom to many of her kid’s friends throughout the years, as she welcomed and loved with no judgment.
If you were blessed to know Jodie, you knew the unconditional love she had for all. She greeted and parted everyone with a hug and a kiss on the cheek, whether she met you once or had known you for years. She welcomed everyone into her home with open arms. She enjoyed having people over to swim and unwind in the pool, especially when her daughter’s family came over with her grandbabies.
Jodie loved having her nails done and loved to paint her granddaughter’s nails and toenails. She enjoyed creating rose bouquets using the roses from her garden, going out to eat with her group of girlfriends, doing diamond art, going to concerts, vacationing anywhere near a beach, and visiting Big Bear on her annual trip with RayMel. Most recently, her daughter and her family have been joining in on the Big Bear trips and creating memories with the grandbabies. She loved talking on the phone with her siblings, especially when she and her sisters, Laura and Tracy, learned they could 3-way call. She loved to shop and could never turn down a bargain.
Jodie loved her family with all of her soul. She is survived by her husband, Raymel Lloyd; her children and their spouses, Travis and Jenny, Amber and Jose, Nicholas, and Connie; and her beloved grandchildren, Ava, Austin, Diego, Cruz, and Coreina. They miss their Mimi terribly. She is also survived by her mother, Barbara Harm, and siblings and their spouses, Russell and Lorraine Harm, Jace-C and Rebecca Harm, Tracy and Clark Wade, Laura and Johny Palmateer; sister in law Jackie and Darryl Allen, and several nieces, nephews, and great nieces and nephews.
Jodie’s dad, John Harm, was awaiting Jodie at heaven’s gates, along with one of her best friends, Cathy Jenkins, her mother-in-law, Lynda Lloyd, her brothers-in-law, Melvin and Jeff Lloyd, and Nana Eltevina Menchaca.
