Jennifer Marie Hodges, 46, of Farmington, New Mexico, passed away early in the morning on August 8th, 2025, at San Juan Regional Medical Center.
Jennifer was born On October 7th, 1978, to Richard and Sheryl Hodges. She will be remembered as a humble and generous soul who found her greatest joy in the simple pleasures of life-camping, fishing, and swimming at Navajo Lake, spending time with family, and especially spending time with her two grandsons, who were her world. Throughout her life, Jennifer worked as a cashier and manager at several convenience stores in the Farmington area, taking immense pride in her work.
Family and friends will fondly remember her cooking, with green chili chicken enchiladas being a favorite. She had a love for Betty Boop memorabilia and enjoyed watching cooking shows, especially Chopped and Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.
Jennifer was looked at by many as a mother figure. Her door was always open, offering a listening ear and solid advice to those who confided in her.
She was preceded in death by her father, Richard, and her brothers, Michael and Adam. She is survived by her mother, Sheryl (Gary); grandparents, Cecil and Ouida Scales; brother, Steven; twin sisters, Joyce and Erica; her five children-Jada, Jehiah, Alexander (Shelby), Jorja, and Aidan; and her two grandsons, Kashton and Brady Beauregard. She also leaves behind many uncles, aunts, nieces, nephews, and friends who loved her dearly.
A memorial service will take place at Alternative Choice on August 12 at 10:00 am, with a reception to immediately follow at Desert Heights Church. To plant a beautiful memorial tree in memory of Jennifer, please visit our Tree Store.
