Paul Robert Hodges, age 62, of Kinross, Michigan, died on November 10th, 2023, at McLaren Hospital in Petosky, Michigan. He was born on May 22nd, 1961, in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, to Rodney and Georgia (Barrett) Hodges.

Paul grew up in Sault Ste. Marie. He worked at Jose’s Mexican restaurant then began working at the Kewadin Casino as a porter. He enjoyed riding his bicycle and he loved his dogs and cats. Paul took pride in his Harley-Davidson motorcycle and would spend time and effort getting it polished by hand after getting it dirty. Paul was someone who always wanted to help others and as such, registered as an organ doner so that he could continue to care for others even after his passing.

Paul is survived by his daughter, Alicia Hodges of South Carolina; siblings, Steven Hodges of Sault Ste. Marie, Kay (Mike) Leclerc of Sault Ste. Marie; nieces, Courtenay (Chris) Carr of Sault Ste. Marie, Janel Leclerc of Sault Ste. Marie; and his good friend, Al Falkenhagen of Kinross Michigan.

Paul is preceded in death by his parents, and by his brother, Rodney Hodges.

To honor Paul’s wishes, no services will be held at this time.
