Kody Garonn Huff
Kody Garonn Huff, of Hamlet, Nebraska was born on Sept. 5, 1987 in Colby, Kansas to James Huff and Carol Macklin. Kody passed away at his residence on Nov. 12, 2023.
Kody grew up in Colby and from the moment his life began, he captured attention. In his beginning years, Kody was no doubt, smart. He learned to speak at an early and age and never did stop talking.
Kody was eager to learn and enjoyed teaching others. So much so, he was regularly placed into gifted and talented programs in school, to occupy his time and his mind. When he finished his work, he would gracefully help others get their work done.
Kody was the life of the party, a “social butterfly” who enjoyed being around people and getting to know people. It was not uncommon for the family to be having a planned night in with nothing to do. Kody would burst through the door and immediately cure any boredom.
Kody loved listening to music of all kinds from rap to country. Eminem, Jelly Roll, and 2 Pac were some of his favorites. As he got older, he did manage to change some of his taste to the likings of Lynard Skynard and C.C.R.
Most recently, Kody was working as an apprentice electrician for Pivot Electric with ambitions of one day earning his journeyman. He had a tremendous heart and genuinely cared for those who cared back for him. If you needed Kody, he was there for you, no questions.
Kody is survived by his parents, Carol Macklin and James Huff; his daughters, Jaycelia Perry, Kaycelynn Perry and Layceiara Perry; brothers, Boone Huff and Shawn Macklin; maternal grandparents, Richard and Marilyn Robbins; his niece, Lilly Huff; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.
He was preceded in death by his step father, Merle Macklin Jr.; paternal grandparents, William and Alverna Huff; brothers, Shane Huff and Kuper Jones; and Aunt, Joyce Kuper.
A memorial service to celebrate Kody’s life will be held at 11 a.m. MT on Saturday Dec. 2, 2023 at Imperial Berean church with Pastor Matt Maxwell officiating.
