Bodhi Shepard Paska

Our sweet Bodhi Shepard Paska, or as we called him Bodhi Bear, passed away suddenly after five short, but full months with us. He was a tough guy that could teach us all about resilience.

While Bodhi spent his first month in the NICU at John’s Hopkins, he then came home to a summer full of adventures.  Bodhi spent his time with family and friends building memories at Smith Mountain Lake, Deep Creek Lake, camping, several boat rides, many trips to parks and the beach.

Bodhi loved kisses on his cheeks and lit up every time his big brother Miles was nearby.  He started chatting just to make sure he kept up with Miles. Bodhi had an extra big smile, or as Miles liked to say his “Googoo Gaga Face.”

Bodhi will forever be loved and cherished by all those who met him. He leaves behind a large family who will hold him in their hearts.

In lieu of flowers please make a donation to Project Sweet Peas  to help other families navigate thru NICU stays and the loss of a baby.
