Jojo Bodnar, a vibrant 37-year-old, passed away peacefully in her mother’s home on April 28, 2026. Her journey began on February 6, 1989, in Ashland, Ohio.
Jojo’s life was a tapestry of adventures and joy. She had an insatiable love for the outdoors, finding happiness in fishing, exploring, and discovering new places. Her adventurous spirit was matched only by her love for meeting new people and creating unforgettable memories. Anyone fortunate enough to meet Jojo was instantly captivated by her infectious laughter, boundless energy, and the warmth of her heart.
Jojo had an uncanny ability to bring joy and laughter to even the gloomiest of days. She was a beacon of positivity, always looking out for the well-being of others. Despite her own struggles, she remained steadfast in her belief that everyone deserved the best. Her love for her family, astrology, and music filled her life with an abundance of happiness.
Jojo is survived by her loving mothers, Kelly (Amber) Bodnar, her father, Joseph (Jennifer) Bodnar, and her sisters, Jessica Bodnar, Autumn (Leslie) Brehm, Jazzmin Bodnar, and Felicia Workman. She is also survived by her brothers, Breyton (Oriana) Taysom, Joshua Bodnar, James Bodnar, and Christopher Workman, along with a host of nieces and nephews.
Jojo’s life was preceded in death by her aunt, Nancy Hammond, her maternal grandparents, Penny and George McAndrew, her brothers, John and Jacob Bodnar, and Anthony Workman.
