Joshua Hodges

July 31, 1986 — July 22, 2023

Joshua Lynn Hodges, born on July 31, 1986, peacefully departed this life July 22, 2023 surrounded by his loving family; his parents Cathy and Jeff Hodges; his sister, whom he adored, Katie Hodges, Cameron Allen, and his best friend, Benji.

Josh was a graduate of Aylett Country Day School, Essex High school, and the University of Mary Washington. He worked at Tappahannock Elementary School where he was known as Mr. Josh and positively impacted everyone he came in contact with. Josh’s life long struggle with brain cancer never stopped him from accomplishing incredible things. He was a gifted artist, photographer, amateur paleontologist, computer wiz, singer and lover of knowledge. What set Josh apart was his pure heart and unpretentious nature in helping and inspiring others to learn.

Our deepest gratitude goes to the gifted oncology doctors and nurses, and especially hospice nurses Terri and Denise.

The family invites friends to visit Wednesday evening, July 26, 2023, from 5-7:00 p.m. at Faulkner Funeral Homes, Marks-Bristow Chapel. Josh’s Celebration of Life will be held Thursday, July 27, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. at the funeral home. Interment will follow at Mt.Zion Baptist Church Cemetery, Dunbrooke, Va.
