Dakota “Cody” Johnson
Organ Donor
/November 26, 2023
Cody was a beautiful soul! He passed away way too soon at the age of 32 . He made the decision to be an organ donor and was able to give 3 other people the chance to live. He left us with cherished memories, and knowing that a part of him will live on and help others gives comfort to so many who loved him! We miss him everyday, but I know he’s smiling down from heaven knowing what he was able to do for others.
Saying thank you
