Jodie enjoyed travelling, hosting parties, and reading murder mysteries as well as sports in her younger days, especially skiing. It was her influence which led the family to Aspen, Colorado, for their first-ever Christmas skiing holiday in 1956, and several years thereafter to Aspen and other Rocky Mountain ski areas. She was an exceptional ally to her husband in their combined hosting of social events, and was particularly well known among Southwest bankers for hosting with her husband their legendary milk punch parties on the train headed to the annual American Bankers Association national convention at such places as the Greenbriar in West Virginia, San Francisco, as well as other cities. Also, in her youth she attended Camp Aloha in Vermont, a summer girls camp on Lake Morey near Fairlee, and saw to it all her children attended the respective girls and boys camp, Lanakila, when they were young. Several of her grandchildren also attended as campers and counselors, a legacy that has continued even after her passing.
