Joseph "Jody" H. Hart, IV passed away on April 28, 2021 in New Orleans, Louisiana at the age of 55.

He was the beloved son and survived by his parents, Karen Baizen Hart and Joseph H. Hart, III, his wife, Michele Allen-Hart, and twins Avery and Harry.

Born in Louisville, Kentucky, he was a graduate of Kentucky Country Day School, Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service, and Tulane University School of Law. Jody was unapologetically honest and spoke hard truths. He was a Renaissance man who believed that there was no skill, trade, or profession that without a willingness to study and try, that he couldn't or didn't master. He was a trial lawyer, writer, mentor, mechanic, engineer, plumber, artist, tailor, electrician, programmer, IT guru, carpenter, mason, plane builder, fine furniture maker, and planned to learn to weld for his 55th birthday.

He was a loving and dedicated father, husband, brother, and son. Jody was proud of his service to the community, especially to the board of the Jewish Community Day School, and most recently the Jewish Endowment Foundation of Louisiana. His final act of generosity was to give the gift of life through organ donation. He will always be remembered and loved.
