Cody Woodson Obituary

WOODSON, Cody Austin, 20, of Buckingham, passed away April 5, 2021. He was born on September 17, 2000, to his loving mother, Angie Wright; and his father, Adam Woodson. Cody graduated from Buckingham County High School with honors, graduated from Governor's School and was currently in his junior year at VCU. He was President of The Linux Users Group and had already secured an internship at Geodecisions. Our boy touched so many lives of people around the world just as the sun does when it shines. His charismatic smile, passion for life and his thirst for learning was contagious. Cody was preceded in death by his maternal great-grandfather, Berry Wright; and his paternal grandfather, Grover Woodson Jr. Cody is survived by his parents; maternal grandparents, Roger and Nan Wright; maternal great-grandmother, Mildred Wright; paternal grandparents, Roger and Sylvia Campbell; his second mom, Julie Woodson; and Jonathon Alford, known as his "stepfather." He also leaves behind his three brothers, Tyler, Graham and Lane Woodson; and his little sister, Abbie Woodson. We would like to mention Clarisse Liclic, the love of his life; and all the aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews and the countless friends all over the world. Viewing will be today from noon until 8 p.m. at the Dunkum Funeral Home, Dillwyn. Graveside service will be held on April 11, 2021, at 2 p.m. in the Wright Family Cemetery (behind Antioch Union Church) at 2810 Greenway Road, Wingina, Va. All are welcome.

Dear Woodson Family,

My family and I are so sorry for this tragic loss of your precious son. We lost a friend in 2008 just 15 days shy of his 20th birthday who was also a VCU student - Tyler Binsted - in a similar incident at Byrd Park in Richmond. We know it is so hard to process the grief and pain you feel. May you be wrapped in the loving arms of God; and may you experience His peace and hope even in the face of your loss. Praying for comfort and strength in the days ahead.

I am very sorry that Cody is no longer with us.

I was very fortunate to have him my Teaching assistant at VCU. He was a very kind person with a soft, calming voice.

He will be missed.
