"You can do anything once." -Cody Ryan

I personally made a promise to Cody that if anything happened to him, I would be there for his son and his family. If able, please help assist us in our mission to aid his family in their time of need.

 

My name is Dave, and on behalf of the individuals of our Special Operations Team and a promise, we are starting this for my best friend and brother Cody Ryan. Cody was a loving father, a family man, and a former member of the Marine Raiders, which is a part of the United States Special Operations Community. Cody embodied the roles and responsibilities of a team member that would put the priorities of the team and team members over himself.

 

Cody passed away Saturday, June 11th, 2022 in a vehicle accident. He had recently separated from the U.S. Marines after over 10 years of service to this amazing country. Cody leaves behind a beautiful young boy who is getting ready to turn five soon. Cody was the type of person who would do anything for his friends and family. He has set up and organized other fundraisers for individuals and their families in our community when they were in a time of need. It is our turn to return the favor to this man and his family.

 

With this unexpected tragedy, a heavy emotional and financial burden has been placed upon his family. All the money being raised will go to assist his family in the funeral costs, the immediate needs of his son, and into a college fund for his son.

 

As Cody would say "You can do anything once".

I will be transferring money directly to the Ryan Family to assist with funeral costs as they arise, and whatever is left over will be put into a trust for his son.
