He will never be forgotten and will be in our hearts forever.
Cody was preceded in death by his grandfathers, Albert Lee "Paw" Story and George O. "Bumpa" Tennant.
We would like to thank his very good friends, Greg, Daniel, Goofy, Wes. P., Wesley K. and all the ones we left out.

Apparently I´m not doing it right you wouldn´t believe some of the dumb stuff I´ve done didn´t even know I did it. I love you so muchmom

I'm sitting here writing you again on this terrible day. Not that I dont think about you more often then today. But today always is like a slap in the face. It comes way too fast. I know by now I shouldnt break down like I do , but I never really processed things back then like I should have , so now I am. And it really, really sucks. Just know I love and miss you. You would be proud of me. Iv found my calling finally. Sure I was top at what I did before ,but now I go home and feel like I made a difference and I'm making a name for myself . Love you always Cody.

I'm sorry I haven't come sooner Cody. Especially now that I realize just how many time iv passed by , lived so close before, and now I work so close. Your mom helped me find you today. I wrote you last week but it never posted. God I miss you so much. Theres so many great things happening for me and I just wanna call and tell you about it all. So instead I'm sitting here writing this looking up at your picture, bawling my eyes out . I'm gonna try an stop by after work again tomorrow . Mabey I should see when your mom will be here . My boss is great so I know he wont mind me leaving the office for a bit. Every year close to this time is hard but mabey being able to come by an just let it out is what I need to do. Iv held in some things for so long ,that now when it hits me it comes crashing thru. Especially around this time every year. As always I miss you so very much cody and I'll write again soon.

Hi son. It's been a while I miss u so much. I can't by a house guess I'll never have the American dream. I no u would have..need to do so many things and I just don't care anymore I want out of here but God's not ready for me even tho I pray every day this will b my last.. there's nothing here for me and I hate where I'm at. I hope soon I'll b there with you. When buddy passed I thought of you when u wrote that check and tried to change the amount from your birthday so u could by those skates buddy had. I thought omg my son was going to b in a lot of trouble but all buddy did was laugh and said he's a kid and laughed again. My son I love you and I pray I'll b with u soon. Love you mom

You always listened so well. I wish you could see my son, hes so energetic and happy always. I wish you were here . I wish I could call and talk for hours like we used to. I wish we could have seen marilyn Manson together. Write you soon. Thinking of you and Missing you forever cody

One day I went to get blueberry pancakes at this Lil diner in town owned by someone I would later work for. Turned out I would later marry him. We finally after years of trying had a perfect Lil boy. I wish you could meet my family they would love you. Every year around this time hurts like hell cause I still miss you so. I love you Cody

"It's been a long day without you my friend and I'll tell you all about it when I see you again" man I swear not a day goes by that I don't think about you. Seems like there's always some little thing that makes me think what would Cody do in this situation? Can't even count how many times thinking of you has probably prevented me from doing something stupid lol. Miss you brother and can't wait to see you again!

So sorry I didn't know Cody as he sounds like a most wonderful young man. But I know he would've been 30 today and his Mom still misses him every day. Love you Kris and pray God's peace as you go forward to the joy He still plans for your life here until you join Cody for eternity.
