Jubilee Celebration: Jessica Garrod-Dieter
Jessica Garrod-Dieter was a vibrant person in her own right, not just the partner of a well-known radio host. Jessica was a devoted animal lover, friend, sister and beloved daughter born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. Those who had a close relationship with her remember her as a cheerful, sociable person who lit up every space she entered.

She was the type of person who would go above and beyond to make sure everyone around her felt loved and cared for, according to many friends.
Jessica's life was also significantly affected by her close relationship with animals. Known for her support of animal adoption and rescue, she volunteered many hours at local shelters and provided assistance to stray animals. Her social media accounts are flooded with photos of her animals, often accompanied by statements emphasizing the value of adopting animals in need. She is fondly remembered by her closest friends and family, especially when it comes to animals. They often called her the “Pet Whisperer” for her unusual and sympathetic ability to connect with them.
The most important thing in her life was her marriage and her love for Dieter. Millions of listeners were amused by Dieter's humorous portrayal of Rover's Morning Glory, but off-air, he was always full of love and affection for Jessica. Together, they overcame happy milestones and difficult times in their lives, demonstrating the strength, love and strength of their bond. Their partnership was a true example of unwavering love and devotion, whether it was through helping each other through difficult health concerns or recognizing personal achievements.
