Cody Scott McConnell, 19 of Springfield, departed this earthly realm and embarked on his journey beyond on September 15, 2023.
He graduated from Hillcrest High School in 2022. He had an unwavering love for dogs, always eager to meet and shower them with affection. Despite the many health challenges Cody faced, he never wavered in his enthusiasm for life. With the love and support of his family, as well as his dear friends, Ms. Sarah Evans, Ms. Sarah “the Para”, and Ms. Megan, he faced each obstacle with unwavering courage and resilience.
Cody’s memory will forever be cherished by his beloved parents, Diana and Dillon McConnell; his brothers, Devon Morgan, Bradley Morgan, Brady Morgan, Joseph Dowler, and Joshua Dowler; his sisters, Abigail Dowler-Wethey and Janice McConnell; his grandmothers, Teresa Davis and Amy Walker; his aunts, Sachet Davis and Kay Elliot; uncle Carl Howard; and his brother-in-law, Nate Wethey.
Family, friends and all those whose lives were touched by Cody are cordially invited to honor and celebrate his life.
Cody’s family will receive visitors at Greenlawn Funeral Home, North, on September 19, 2023, starting at 10:00 am till 12:00 pm.
We will then gather at Antioch Cemetery at 12:30 p.m. for a graveside service, where we will lay Cody’s earthly remains to rest in eternal peace.
