  14. Cody, you were like a 2nd son to me. I think of all the trouble and fun that you and Justin were always getting into. We have had so much fun over the years, going to the beach together, Tennessee, fishing, games, 4th of July celebrations, and even running Spartan Races together. Now, you are running in heaven. I miss you so much but I know I will see you again. I know you are watching over everyone. I pray for his healing arms to wrap around your family at this time. Cody, I love you and miss you so much. Your madre, Ms Gina

  15. Cody, you were like a 2nd son to me. I have watched you and Justin grow up for years having fun and getting into trouble together. There are so many stories. It made me feel good that you felt comfortable talking to me about things you were going through. I am going to miss all the good times, you have had with Justin and my family…going to the beach, fishing, Tennessee, playing games, celebrating the 4th of July, and even doing Spartan Races together. Now you are running in heaven. I know I will see you again in heaven. Cody, I know you are looking down on everyone. My prayer is that God will put his arms around your family at this time. I will always love and miss you. Your madre, Ms. Gina

  25. Over the days ahead, my prayer will be with you, tears have already been shared, may the grace of God empower you to walk the days ahead. So grateful to be able to tell you of Cody’s testimony of Jesus and his decision to go in faith , awhile back when we ran into him eating out. He truly was an over comer, his success may not seemed big to some, but we know. Again may the peace that passes understanding comfort and carry you ahead. For now Cody, rest in peace.

    Our heartfelt condolences and prayers are with you. I had the pleasure of getting to know and work with Cody for a few years at New Direction. He and I spent a good bit of time together and I witnessed him change into a fine young man. Cody professed faith in Christ and we mourn his sudden departure, but we rejoice knowing we will see him again.

  42. Cody, as long time neighbors, we have watched you, Madison, Hunter and Tymber grow up. You have grown to be such a loving, polite and caring young man. You often helped us with yard work, which was greatly appreciated. Roy took you out teaching you to drive so you could get your license. I often took you to and from your jobs before you got your license. I was always impressed how punctual you were and we would always leave extra early as you wanted to be at work before you had to be. After you moved out on your own, you would come see us and tell us how you were doing. We had some good talks and we rejoice in the fact that you told us that you had a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We look forward to seeing you again in eternity. We will greatly miss you. You always said we were like grandparents to you. We love you and are praying for your family at this time of sorrow. We will all be together again one day.
