On March 10, 2026, my life changed forever when my husband, Tyler David Hodge, passed away unexpectedly at just 37 years old. Tyler leaves behind me, his wife of 13 years, and our two wonderful children, Boston (11, turning 12 on June 23rd) and Bailey (9, turning 10 on March 22nd). Tyler was a proud journeyman lineman who just Graduated and worked hard to provide for our family. He was always ready to help others, whether it was fixing something, lending a hand, or making people laugh with his goofy personality. His presence touched many lives, and now the kids and I are facing the unimaginable reality of life without him.

Tyler’s biggest dream and goal was to provide for his family—a safe home, a stay-at-home mom, kids who could play sports, and a life filled with love and stability. He worked tirelessly to make sure we had everything we needed, and he was so proud that I could be there for our children every day. Now, with his sudden loss, the financial burden of maintaining the life he worked so hard to build has become overwhelming. Your support will help us keep our home, cover everyday expenses, to help get the unfinished projects done around the house, and allow Boston and Bailey to continue doing the activities they love while we find our footing again. Our daughter Bailey was also diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes on Tyler’s birthday, October 1st, 2025, and we have been learning to navigate this new challenge together. The sudden loss of Tyler has left us not only heartbroken but also facing many unexpected expenses during an incredibly difficult time.

This fundraiser is to help support Boston, Bailey, and me as we grieve the loss of my husband and father to our children. Donations will help with household needs, bills and give us time and stability as we begin to rebuild our lives. Any donation, no matter the size, will help our family during our darkest time. If you cannot donate at this time, please share this fundraiser to help spread the word and support us.
