The Great Architect of the Universe called our friend and brother Jody Sanders home last night. My heart is heavy as I post this, but I know that Jody is at peace. He battled pancreatic cancer for quite a while, and now he is free of pain, and playing steel guitar in heaven.
Services will be hels on Wednesday, April 18, 2012 I believe at the Magnolia Funeral Home in Magnolia, Texas, but I don't have anymore details at this time. I will post them at a later time, as I get them.
I know he loved all of you "steel brothers" (and sisters) on the forum. I know he would say to you all "see ya down the road".

This is a big lost to the world as, well as the steel guitar world. Country Gentlemen like Jody are a dieing breed. A Gentleman, always met a freind and not a stranger. You were his best friend from the time you met him. I don't think, I ever in 36 years of knowing him heard him say a negetive about anyone.
I remember meeting Jody in '76 @ Clyde’s Music in Lake Jackson, he then and every since then has been the epitome of the Texas Gentleman, I don't always reach it, but I try to be somewhat like Jody in that respect. He gave me my first lessons and I will always cherish that.
Jody never would tell me good bye, he would always say "See ya down the road"
Well Jody, I hope to See ya down the Road.
I Love you and gonna miss you
Lee

We are sure losing a lot of folks fast in the last few years. I am starting to get gun shy of opening this page anymore.
My condolences to all of Jody's family & friends.
He will be missed by many thru the steel guitar world.
