Rena Mae Lody

Rena Mae Lody, age 85, of Little Rock, Arkansas passed from this earth on Saturday, October 15, 2022. She was born November 10, 1936, in Harrison, Arkansas. As a teenager she enjoyed the typical mischief and once even drove the family car backwards around the square in downtown Harrison. She enjoyed playing cards, especially Rook and penny poker, but the thing she loved the most was her family. Whether making her son’s favorite meal, making fudge for J D at Christmastime, or driving from Harrison to Farmington, New Mexico when her sister once lived there, she always enjoyed doing for her family.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Earl & Bertha Dunham, her brother Dr. Robert Dunham, her sister Dorothy Stephens and her beloved husband J D Lody. She is survived by her son Gary Lody (Carrie), her niece Dr. Sandra Reynolds, her nephews Steven Dunham, and Timothy Stephens (Nichole) and several great nieces and great nephews.
