"Last night I lost the love of my life, my wife Kenzie Ely. She had been battling COVID-19 in the hospital since April 19th. . . During her stay, we have been blessed with a beautiful baby boy, born on April 22nd with a weight of 3 pounds 13 ounces. . . He has had his own struggles coming into this world 2 months early, but has overcome everything life has thrown at him so far." - Cody Ely

In the span of just a week, Cody lost his wife, Kenzie, and gained a son, Cody Jr. (CJ) who was born two months early.

Kenzie was a loving mother to their 10 year old child Aaliyah and she was a cherished daughter, caring sister, and a wise friend.
