HODGES.jpg

Hodges, Rachel Ann, age 29, of Mt. Juliet, TN, gained her wings on Saturday, August 17, 2019 in Knoxville, TN. Her death was a result of an accidental overdose following a long struggle with addiction. Rachel was a granddaughter, daughter, stepdaughter, sister,  step-sister, sister-in-law, niece, aunt, cousin, friend, and, most importantly, a person of worth and a Child of God. Rachel was born and raised in Gladeville, TN. She was a member of Immanuel Baptist Church and a 2008 graduate of Wilson Central High School. It is difficult to adequately capture a person in an obituary, especially someone whose adult life was largely defined by drug addiction. However, Rachel was so much more than her addiction…she was hilarious, warm, caring, beautiful, fearless, resilient, and deeply loved by those who were fortunate enough to truly know her. We are comforted in knowing that Rachel is now surrounded by light, free from the struggle of the disease that haunted her. Chances are that someone you know is struggling with the disease of addiction, and Rachel’s family encourages you to honor her memory by offering them your empathy, love, and support as they fight the darkness. Rachel was preceded in death by her beloved maternal grandparents, Johnny Lee “Pop” and Patricia Ann “Nana” Byrd and her paternal grandparents, Robert Leland and Margaret Hodges.

She is survived by:

Mother and Step-father – Kim Byrd Lance and Barry Lance

Father – Russell Hodges

Brother – Jonathan (Sara) Hodges

Step-sister – Emilee (Erik) Buckmeyer

Step-brother – Joshua Lance

Nephew – Wren Hodges

Aunts – Teri Byrd Sullivan (Howard Blaydes) and Cheryl Mason

Uncles – Michael Lee Byrd and Robert (Dona) Hodges

Many cousins

Higginbotham.jpeg

Higginbotham, Pamela Renee, age 65, of Mt. Juliet, TN, died August 17, 2019 after a long battle with an aggressive form of Parkinson’s disease known as Multiple Systems Atrophy (MSA). Pam was raised in Georgia and lived in eight states. She traveled to almost all 50 of them during her life. She put herself through nursing school while raising a family, earned two degrees, worked as a technical schools recruiter, led advertising efforts at various companies and eventually stepped out and started her own business prior to diagnosis. Pam lived a life full of adventure including travels to Hong Kong, Singapore, and all over the Caribbean islands. She took a liking to Harley Davidson motorcycles and rode with various groups honoring our fallen servicemen and women. Pam had a witty and kind spirited attitude that could light up any room or situation. Her infectious smile and her gentle heart are going to be missed by all who knew her. Pam was preceded in death by her mother, Katie and father Jack.

She is survived by:

Brother – Keith Higginbotham and his wife, Mary Kay

Children – Melissa Zall and her husband, Andy

               Jeremy Carter and his wife, Rosemary

6 Grandchildren who were the lights of her life – James, Jacob, Ethan,

                                                                    Zander, Ava and Dylan

The family asks that for any memorials to be made in Pam’s name to continue to fight against this terrible disease at either the Michael J. Fox organization (michaeljfox.org) or the MSA coalition (multiplesystematrophy.org).
