Cody graduated from Webster High School in 2011. After graduation he became a jack of all trades, experiencing life through many occupations; from card dealer at the Hole In The Wall Casino to making dumpsters at Nedland Industries, and N-tech where they made manure handling equipment, along with working at many dairy farms in the area. He returned home to help his brother on the family dairy farm while having many non-farm jobs, he worked at Johnsons Repair, Petersen Excavating, and his last non-farm job was at Wagner’s Cabinets.

Cody loved spending time with the people he cared about. He had a passion for cooking. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, gardening, lawncare and taking care of his animals. He often saved a dog or cat by taking them home and surprising his mom. Cody was a giver; if he had $10 and you needed help, it was yours. He had a knack for putting others before himself.
