Wyatt Benjamin Hodges
On November 8, 2026 Wyatt Benjamin Hodges took his finally breaths in the arms of his Mother and Father. For 18 and a half months Wyatt truly lived up to the meaning of his name, Brave at War. He fought until his very last breaths until he entered into Heaven.
Wyatt entered this world February 20th, 2023 to Ben and Maggie Hodges. Wyatt was adored by his loving sister, Amelia.
At just 3 years old Wyatt had a big personality. He was often seen in his signature hat, sunglasses, and stylish shoes. Wyatt loved the outdoors and swinging on his swing set and playing on his slide. Wyatt loved to dance, sing, and his smile was contagious. Wyatt could spend hours working puzzles, being read to, or watching his favorite shows: Bluey, Daniel Tiger, Paw Patrol, Mickey Mouse, Bernstein bears, Spider-Man, and Winnie the Pooh.
Even though his time on earth was short, he made the biggest impact. We know he was lovingly welcomed into the arms of Jesus, his Papa Jerry (Ashworth) and Grammy (Tamara Hundley).
Wyatt will be missed by his many loving family members and friends. His Nana (Cheryl Ashworth), Nanny (Dianne and Billy Beverly), Aunt Penn Penn (Penny and Tom Blair), G-Pa (Ron Hodges) and Ms. Susan Dahl, Uncle Bobby and Sarah Ashworth, cousins Kayden, Violet, Henry, and Hattie, GG (June Oakley), Aunt Cathy Fowler (Ken) and Aunt Carolyn Lumpkin, Aunt Judy Hundley (Jerry) and Aunt Beth Driskell (Earl), Uncle Jon Hundley, Uncle Mike Ashworth (Sally), Uncle Philip Ashworth (Staci), and Uncle Mike Hodges (Angela). He was honored to be a part of special friends and family; His sitter; Cathy Saunders, our honorary grandmother Debra Fugate, cousins Layne Cahill and Jennifer Beverly and Auntie Karen Riddle.
We would like to thank the staff at Duke for their care of Wyatt and showing him so much love. We will be forever grateful to all our family, friends, and community in their support of Wyatt and our family.
