Andrea Lois Rodely

and Savior Jesus Christ on January

1, 2012. She is survived by her de-

voted and loving husband Jack L.

Rodely and her precious and beauti-

ful son Samuel D. Rodely. "Andie,"

as she was known to her friends and

family, was born in Dallas on May

24, 1968. She was raised in Dallas

and in Grand Prairie, where she

graduated from South Grand Prairie

High School in 1986. She received

her Associates Degree from Meth-

odist University in 1995 and settled

in Dallas where she made a warm

and comfortable home with her

family and worked as a Marketing

Specialist for Southwest Airlines.

Andie leaves many wonderful

friends and family members, includ-

ing her dedicated mother Naomi

Villalba, resolute father George

Villalba III, younger brother Jason

Villalba, sister-in-law Brooke

Villalba, and her two little nieces,

Sophia and Elena (who just adored

their Aunt Andie).

Andie had a heart as big as Texas, a

smile that could brighten anyone’s

darkest day and a disposition so

kind that she was often referred to

simply as "Sweet Andie." She im-

pacted every life she touched in a

positive way and anyone who was

blessed enough to know her well,

could not help but to love her. She

was courageous and valiant in her

fight against an aggressive cancer

and maintained a positive and gra-

cious attitude until the very end.

We will all miss her dearly, but we

are all thankful that she is free of her

struggle and we take joy in her gift

of salvation from her Heavenly Fa-

ther.

Andie’s memorial service will take

place at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday,

January 5, 2012 at Grace Bible

Church in Dallas, which is located

at 11306 Inwood Road (near the

cross street Northaven Road). Flow-

ers may be sent to the church, or in

lieu thereof, please send donations

to the cancer charity of your choice.
