He was a farmer for over 30 years then later worked for the healthcare pharmaceutical industry from 2003 to present.
Kody enjoyed gardening, hunting, fishing, trapping and the outdoors. He went on many adventurous hunting trips, the most memorable was in Canada where he finally got his black bear with his bow. He loved watching his children’s activities and was always willing to help them in any way he could. Kody was a firm believer in God and brought his children up in the faith and knowledge of God. He taught them the meaning of true love, as he loved his wife, Cynthia and his children more than anything. Kody was very compassionate and an encourager. He had a smile and laugh that was very infectious.
