Jodie Michelle Giardino

Jodie is survived by her devoted husband of 31 years, Tommy Giardino, and their three beloved sons: Brent (37) and his wife Candice, Chase (30), and Justyn (28). She is also survived by her siblings Melanie, Kimberly, and Todd, along with the nieces and nephews she dearly cherished. Jodie was preceded in death by her parents, Ronald and Angie Fuller.

Born in Rome, Georgia on the Fourth of July, Jodie entered the world with a joyful spark that never faded. She spent her early years in Rome before relocating with her family to Kennesaw in 1988. Jodie was a graduate of North Cobb High School and later earned her master’s degree in English from Kennesaw State University. She devoted 15 years to teaching middle school, where her passion for learning, boundless compassion, and unwavering commitment left a lasting impact on countless students.

Jodie embraced life with enthusiasm and a spirit of adventure. She was most at peace near the water and visited more than fifty beaches across fifteen states and five countries. Creative, determined, and endlessly capable, she approached every project with confidence—painting the interior of her home, building custom tables, and installing backsplashes entirely by hand.

Above all, Jodie treasured her family. She was deeply devoted to her husband and sons, offering encouragement, guidance, and unconditional love at every step of their lives. She also adored her dog, Kirby, whose companionship brought her immense comfort and joy.

Jodie touched the hearts of everyone who knew her with her kindness, strength, and generous spirit. She was truly one of a kind. Though she will be profoundly missed, her family finds peace in knowing that her steadfast Christian faith has welcomed her into the loving presence of our Lord and Savior.
