His big heart and fierce love for those around him will never be forgotten. He had a way of making people feel seen, valued, and cared for, and his presence brought warmth and laughter wherever he went.

The family wishes to express their deepest gratitude to the many friends, neighbors, volunteers, and law enforcement officers who searched tirelessly for Cody and offered support, love, and prayers during this difficult time. Your compassion and efforts will never be forgotten.

Cody’s light will continue to shine through the love he gave and the memories he created. Like the stars he admired, his light will guide us always. He will be forever in our hearts.
