Terry C. Hodges Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Terry C. Hodges “Sweet Cheeks” July 19 1947 – Sept. 2 2021 Terry or “Sweet Cheeks” was easily the funniest person you’ve ever met and as of September 2, 2021 His laughs & jokes will no longer be heard. As gut wrenching as this is he would want us to continue to Live, Laugh & Love on our own passage through life. COVID took him away from all of us way too soon. He will be missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. His Day Care Dudes {they know who} will certainly miss the twinkle in his eyes as he dished out Monday humor.
