On November 23rd, 2022, Roger and Richard Ward, brother and father of Jodie Fox, were tragically killed in a one-car accident.

Roger and Richard were well-loved members of the community, described by loved ones as being incredibly kind, loving, and giving to all. As life-long mechanics, they were both deeply passionate about cars and racing at the Summits Motorsports Park and were well-known for their racing team, No Frills Racing. They were also dedicated Eagle Scouts, with Richard achieving the highest possible honor in the organization. It wasn’t uncommon for Roger and Richard to use their skills to help others, like repairing their neighbors’ cars or fixing flat bike tires. Most of all, they loved spending time with their sister and daughter, Jodie, and her daughter, Val.

Jodie Fox has been left with not only the unimaginable grief of losing her father and only sibling at one time but also planning and financing their funerals. As a self-employed hairstylist and single mother, Jodie will also need to temporarily compensate for lost wages during this difficult time.

Those of you who know and love Jodie know what a dedicated friend, employee, and mother she is. By donating to this fundraiser, you are supporting Jodie and honoring the memory of Roger and Richard Ward.
