Jody Pauley, age 59, of Inez, Ky passed away October 21, 2025. Jody had been missing since March 4th. He was born December 1, 1965 at South Williamson, Ky.
Jody is preceded in death by his parents, John H Pauley, Jr. and Sue Scott Pauley and two sisters, Lora Pauley Hoffman and Carol Pauley Parsley.
He is survived by two sisters, Gayle Howell and Zola Howell, both of Inez, and two brothers Calvin Pauley of Inez and Lon(Barbara) Pauley of Pilgrim, Ky. Also, a host of nephews, nieces and cousins mourn his passing. Jody’s family loved him very much.
From childhood Jody suffered with anxiety, behavioral issues, attention deficit and other undiagnosed problems. This led him to self medicate and that leads to undesirable behavior.. He had a checkered past mixed with good and bad.
Jody hungered and thirsted after righteousness and would always want to talk about salvation. Thank God he went to rehab and was saved and baptized by Pastor Ronnie Sweeney. He said he prayed for all of his family every night before he went to sleep and asked the Lord to forgive him for the things he had done wrong that day. Brother, we will meet you on the other side.
A memorial service will be held on November 19th at 1:00 p.m at Crum Funeral Home, Inez, Ky with Pastor Ronnie Sweeney officiating. Everyone is welcome to attend. Burial will be on the Pauley Cemetery at Caney at a later time.
