Cody.....
We didn't spend a lot of time together but the times we did were priceless. Although we never directly talked about it, I learned a lot from you. Live every day, Be an optimist, Treat the people your around with class and respect, and make the best of everything.
Thanks Cody, Wayne

My first memory of Cody was when I moved to Washington and my Mom Nola and I went to visit him in his cabin in Tacoma. I remember he had a wonderful big smile and I loved his cabin. He and my mom were close, I know that they talked a lot on the phone since she lived in Colorado and they were cousins.

Life Lessons I learned from Cody
Patience - Don't sweat the small things
Taking Life for Granted. - Life is not always fair but it's always good. Do as much as you can as long as you can. -Like getting dressed every morning, reaching for the toaster or plopping down in my favorite chair - so easy for me.
Humor - Sometimes you really have to search for the bright side of things. Laugh a lot and sing loud. A hug is always a good thing, reach for it.
Control - Give your advice once, twice, then stop - people will do what they do. Try not to judge.
Empathy - Listen, Listen, listen and be aware of other peoples feelings.
I miss you Cody (Old Sock) It's been great fun these past 40 years. You and John and me- live music, car shows, Blanco Canyon Boys. You have always been there for me. We have been through a lot together. I thank GOD that you were in my life sharing
comfort and joy with me and throwing in little life lessons.

I met Cody when my brother Joe brought him to our home when they were both about 18. He was so cute and so nice I immediately developed a huge crush on him, but since I was about 10 at the time obviously it was solely one-sided. He and my brother were beginning a friendship that was a bonding of soul mates that would last almost 60 years and even though Cody is walking freely now with God, that bond is still very much a part of my brother's life and will continue to be until he and Cody are reunited in Heaven.
Many years passed and I had the opportunity at Joe's 70th birthday party to confess to Cody the girlhood crush I had on him. Being the gallant man he was indicated he was flattered and we could have been an item! lol. We became email buddies and he always sent such interesting articles and pictures. The jokes were the best and since we shared the same political persuasion...well if you knew Cody....need I say more!
Our heartfelt condolences to Cody's family, friends, and neighbors, he was in inspiration to all who were privileged to have been a part of his life. He will be greatly missed.
In Christ Jesus Love,

My name is Jim Patton from Timewell, Illinois. My Great-Grandmother was Daisy Scholl Patton. Unfortunately I never got to meet Cody or any of his family. My parents, Bob & Eloise Patton and my wife Mary all send our condolences. We are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. The Patton family
We moved into the neighborhood in 1990 and got to meet Cody shortly thereafter. What a treasure he has been in our lives. Everytme I drive by his house I miss him all over again. Cody was the nicest person you could know. He was appreciative of any little thing, seldom ever asked for anything even to them point of not wanting to take you up on your offers of help because he didn't want to be a burden on you. In the 25 years we knew him I bet we could count on one hand the times we heard him complain about his situation. He wasn't like that. He played the hand he was dealt and he played it well. He was an inspiration to us and many others. I remember we would take buckets of margaritas down to his house and sit on the front porch on the hot summer days visiting and laughing at stories he'd tell us. Sometimes we'd pick up his favorite Papa Murphy's Cowboy pizza and have dinner with him and watch another Mariner game.
My Mom never taught me how to cook for a small amount of people so every time I would make soup, chili, cakes, whatever it was, my first thought would be, I gotta get some of this down to Cody. Shortly after his passing I made some cupcakes and I started to giggle to myself, my husband asked what's up? I said I was just thinking I want to take a couple of these down to Cody.
You will be missed Cody. Knowing your are up in heaven running, walking, laughing and watching us is what makes this ok.
Hugs and love,
Gvido and Tina Bars
I met Cody in 1965 through Joe Kessel who was a classmate a Clover Park Voc. He took me on my first trip to Eastern WA to see the Ellensburg Rodeo. I still remember clearly what a fun day it was and what a thoughtful gentleman he was. Later, after he was paralyzed and living with his parents, we became best friends. He was the kindest, most unselfish person I have ever known. I am happy his suffering is over but very sorry for the loss to everyone who knew and loved him.
