    I am so sorry for your loss.I met Kody when we bought our house in Wisconsin.He would come over and hang out with my grandsons he would also take them for rides on the atv.I would always brag of how smart and how handy he was.I can’t believe he is gone. I think of him all the time. He is in heaven looking down at everyone. You are missed so much.

  2. Rick Gehri says:

    Kody i remember the first time we met, your Ma talked me into going for a ATV ride she said a could ride yours, you were so mad ,you didn’t know me from the man in the moon, but getting to know each other ,we both liked cars & motorcycle s, so we had a bond! I couldn’t find you one day, you were in the garage, i told you about an old chainsaw that didn’t work, by god you got it running, i think you could fix most anything, then when i was putting a new motor in the coupe, i had to wait for you, cause you wanted to help put it in, many many things i could say about you, you were a good kid, always respectful to me ,always wanting to help if i needed it!! Kody i will miss you, every day i wonder what was wrong ,miss your little smile you had when someone looked at you playing guitar. There will be an emptiness in my heart for you, Love you Son Rick

    I didn’t know him well, but I remember every day, when I’d leave choir, he’d be leaving the tan wing where the shop classes are at the same time. I’d know it was him every time because of the spurs on his boots. It was like a nice little routine. My deepest condolences to the family, and all friends. ❤️
