March 31, 2026, 97, Goldsboro – It is with great sadness and sincere hearts to announce the passing of Mr. William Henry Hodges on March 31, 2026 at UNC Wayne Hospital. Mr. Hodges was a man of faith, honor, distinction and intellect. He led a life worth mirroring. He was a great bricklaying instructor at North Lenoir High School and served in the United States Army. Mr. Hodges was a mentor to many troubled youth even after his retirement from teaching. Mr. Hodges leaves a legacy that will never be forgotten and always highly spoken of.
The Staff of J.B. Rhodes Funeral Home and Cremations, Inc. are praying for the family as they make arrangements to celebrate a life well lived and the many friends that were dear to him.
The arrangements will be provided here when they become final.
Please keep this family in prayer.
