I would like to express my condolences to your family, it can be hard for friends and family to find the right words to express at difficult times like these. The Bible is a great source to look into and has helped me personally when My dad passed away. Jesus Christ promised that millions now dead will live again on this earth and have the prospect of remaining on it forever in a peaceful beautiful paradise earth. (Isaiah 35:5,6) A comforting thought is at Revelation 21:3,4, where it states "...And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry be anymore the former things have past away". This scripture gives us hope for the future! You can also find comfort in Acts 24:15 - Death does not end it all. May Jehovah God bring you comfort and peace during this difficult time. (Ps.46:1, Ps.83:18)

U Unknown but Known on Mar 31, 2015

I only knew you a lil bit but what I seen for myself I seen a big heart. Whenever I seen you walking in the middle of the road as if cars didnt exist you had the biggest smile I could see from my 2nd story apartment. We had a few heart filled talks back in the day. You had plans for yourself, things that people didnt understand because they didnt have the passion as you did. I know your path in life wasnt were you wanted to be yet you made the best of everyday. Everyday you made it an adventure. Your path hasnt ended Cody because it lives on in everyone that crossed your path and I hope the ones who helped you end your path here on earth will learn something. I hope they realize and see how great life really is and what its about as you did. You somehow seen lifes true colors even when your world was dark. Now you can shine some light down on the ones that really need it. Keep your dreams going because you'll never die in us. Rest in peace Cody and keep that big smile of yours going

Mary and Gary, my heart goes out to you all at this unbearable time of sadness, of the loss of Codey, and the deep heartbreaking sorrow your own child is going through.

Wendy and Gary: I Pray for God to Bless you both and all your family with peace and comfort in knowing Codey is safe and in His most loving and forgiving arms. I'm sure Codey will carry on with his own caring ways and watch over his family and friends because, as I hear, that's just the kind of guy he was!

CandleThere are no words to explain the way I feel inside cuzzo. You and I had a bond that was inseparable. We were literally side by side for many years, and got into some of the dumbest things imaginable. Those things are some of the things that made me who I am today. I owe you many years of my life cuz. I remember taking you to the Dells for your first time, and making you jump off the rocks (not one of our better decisions). From that day on you were hooked. You loved going out there man. I remember driving to Wausau EVERY single day with you, and almost dying on the way back one early morning. You woke up from the passenger seat and said, "Dude I thought we were dead." We just sat there, car in the middle of the road, and laughed about what an idiot I was. I had the pleasure of knowing who you really were, and who you were really trying so very hard to be. You wanted to grow up and be successful. You wanted to reach for the stars. Whenever life threw something at you, you looked at it and smiled....and said, "Maaaaaaannnnnnn....," and kept on walking. You always had a way out of it. If you didn't, you'd find one; and then suck me into your little scheme. Some of the best years of my life were spent with you fam....I will never forget them. I can't...they made me! I will definitely see you again....and when I do, I want to see that smile and hear you say, "Maaaaannnnnn....., what's up cuz?!" There will not be one day you will not be in my heart from this day forward. I will hold onto each and every moment we shared cuzzo. I love you so much man. Keep Jesus busy with some of our stories until I can come up there and defend myself.

D Dawn Fischer Packard on Mar 25, 2015

My prayers and thoughts are with you Wendy, so sorry for you loss. Also, so sad for the the family and pray you all will find peace during this time in your hearts.

CandleCody was the type of person that no matter how down you were he always had the words or even just his smile to brighten you back up. Heaven gain a great angel.

A Amanda Nicholson on Mar 25, 2015

Cody, you are missed beyond belief. I hope you knew then and still know now how much Dennis and I care about you. You were like a brother to us. I'm still waiting to hear your voice outside my bedroom window telling me to open the door cause we couldn't hear you knocking. Blue is pacing back and forth waiting for you to come over to lick you like crazy. Cody, everyday our house is void of you is another day that this house is incomplete. We love you Cody and we look forward to the day we get to see you again. Until then we will continue to look at the stars and talk to you. Love you to the moon and back to the stars and beyond.

T Tonya Richards on Mar 25, 2015

I'm not sure why my post didn't show up. My deepest sympathy to all family.. Cody was definitely someone special. As of late he supported me in a way not many will understand. His smile, his dimples and his contagious laughter is something I'll NEVER forget!! Love you CodyðŸ'œ

T Tonya Richards on Mar 25, 2015

I miss you Cody. More than I can even put words to. You were my rock when I started to stumble. You reminded me of what was important and pushed me to keep fighting this storm that rages on. I'll never forget our recent talks. I did what I could to try and help but God had other plans for you. Altho my heart is in shreds I keep reminding myself that you're in the hands of the Lord. Your smile, your dimples and your contagious laugh... that is what I'll remember. That and the time we spent together will ALWAYS be held near and dear to my heartðŸ'œ My deepest sympathy to all family members.. I'm sorry
