ladydyver 0 #1 February 16, 2013 Just received some devastating news. Our very good friend Kit Cody died in a plane crash yesterday. He was a good man, a great friend and has been jumping with me since I started skydiving. He came to Lost Prairie with us every year, frequently joined us at the Invasion in Sebastian. Blue Skies Kit, you will be missed by your skydiving family.DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!

drdive 0 #9 February 17, 2013 Cody took me under his wing when I was finishing up my student work in Lake Wales. He had a passion for jumping with baby jumpers, and would often see a solo waiting to board and grab them to make an impromptu 3 way or 4 way. He always came over to jump with us when we came to Sebastian in the winter, and he was a regular at Lost Prairie. He could talk your ear off and had story after story. His business card had a parachute, motorcycle, snowmobile, and an airplane on each corner. He was a great jumper as long as there were not more than 2 points to remember He hated what he called "chunk" exits but liked to fly to his slot instead. There will be a memorial service in Florida this friday (details pending) and his main service will be in Cody Wyoming sometime in March. Kit - you have left a big hole. I am going to miss you. Blue Skies my friend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
