Cody A. Dodson 1997-2026

He was born Oct. 22, 1997, in Warren, the son of Mark and Cheri Hottenroth Dodson.

A 2016 graduate of Lakeview High School, Cody was a dedicated student and athlete, notably serving as captain of the Lakeview soccer team. Following high school, he attended Kent State University, continuing to pursue his ambitions with determination. At the time of his passing, Cody was nearing completion of his electrician apprenticeship with Local #573, excitedly looking forward to a promising career in the electrical trade.

Cody’s passions extended beyond his work and studies. He loved playing and watching all sports, particularly the Cleveland Browns. Golf was another cherished pastime that he enjoyed frequently. Most precious of all to Cody was the time spent with his family at the lake — riding the boat and simply being together, moments that brought him profound joy and fulfillment.

He is survived by his loving parents, Mark and Cheri Dodson of Coventry Township; his brothers, Garrett Dodson (Morgan Hardman) of Champion and Christopher (Taylor) Rowlands of Cortland; and his dear nephew, Brett Rowlands.

Cody was preceded in death by his grandparents, Charles and Rosie Hottenroth, and Tom and Janace Dodson.
