Cody was born on December 31, 1997, in Lafayette to Nicole Chachere David and John David. He was loved deeply and meant the world to his family.

Cody was a spirited and easygoing young man who never hesitated to offer help to anyone or anything in need. He loved meeting new people and never met a stranger. Though he may have been young, Cody lived a full life in his 24 years. He followed his passions, explored the world and left a trail of smiles behind him. He often took time to enjoy the simple things in life, such as nature, yoga, meditation and took advantage of every day. His family fondly described Cody as a thoughtful and kind person who enjoyed spending time with his many friends and being a positive inspiration to all.

Above all else, Cody’s greatest love was for his family. Cody’s legacy will live on in the hearts and thoughts of all who knew and loved him. We rejoice in knowing that he is not gone, only gone on before us. Until we meet again, we love you.

Left to cherish Cody’s memory are his father John David; mother Nicole Chachere David; sister Hannah David; paternal grandparents Johnny David and Denise David; maternal grandparents Nick Long and Lillie Long; aunt Mary David; uncles Paul David, Chris Chachere and Blake Chachere; and cousins Zachary Hauser, Grant David, Emma David and Allison Saunders Olivier.

Pallbearers will be members and friends of the family.
