Cody Boyd Obituary
It is with heavy hearts and profound gratitude of a life well lived that we announce the passing of Cody Wayne Boyd, on Wednesday, January 8, 2025, at his home in Gentry, Arkansas. He was 27.
Cody was born on September 16, 1997, in Rogers, Arkansas. He was the son of Michael Shane Boyd and Lana Kay Seiden Boyd. Cody graduated from Bryan University in Rogers with an associate’s degree. He was a fun, enjoyable person who loved spending time with his family and friends; especially if it was outside. Cody was an amazing artist who focused on creating gothic and tattoo art. He enjoyed listening to rock, metal, and alternative music. He was a thoughtful and logical thinker who thrived in spirited debates. But still managed to show respect for differing perspectives. Cody was very empathetic and was always the first to stand up for others. He worked for several companies in the area including Gates and the House of Webster.
Cody served Honorably in the Arkansas Army National Guard.
A Visitation will be held for Cody on Friday, January 17, 2025, at the Backstrom-Pyeatte Funeral Home from 5:00pm to 8:00pm.
