Cody James Galbraith
   It is with a very heavy heart that we announce the tragic and untimely passing of our beloved son Cody. He was taken from us way too soon on Sunday, May 29, 2016, at the tender young age of 25 years.    Left behind are Cody’s beloved mother Michelle; his father Ryan; and his special love for his sisters, Jaeda and Jorja. He also leaves behind his loving and caring grandma Grace and grandma Brenda and grandpa Graham. Also left to mourn are uncle Calvin (Tammy with daughter Ainsley) from Elma, Manitoba; uncle John (Diana with daughter Karli) from Winnipeg; uncle Carey (Kelly with son Connor) from Calgary; uncle Kyle (Jen with sons Luxton and Henley) from Winnipeg; as well as numerous great-aunts; uncles; cousins and many friends.  They all cherished Cody as one of their own. He was predeceased by his uncle Glenn Madden in 2013; grandpa Calvin and great-grandparents, Mitch and Mae Zooke. Cody loved them all.   Cody had a special place in his heart for his sisters Jaeda and Jorja. He would do anything possible to make them smile and laugh. Whatever it was, just a trip to 7-11 for slurpees and a big bag of candy or just hanging out and watching movies and eating McCain’s chocolate cake. He loved you so much girls. Keep him close to your hearts and his smile going on in you.   Cody lived life to the ultimate fullest.  His love for sports was evident with playing both hockey and baseball for almost ten years. He spent the bulk of his life living in Headingley, Manitoba with his family. Hitting High School was a day Cody could hardly wait for. He attended Westwood Collegiate for two years, but ventured on and graduated from Ross L. Gray in Sprague, Manitoba. He met so many friends, but ones that stuck by his side through thick and thin was his best buddies, bros and soulmates, Matthew and Jordan Allarie. A bond that will last forever. Cody loved spending time out at the family cabin in Buffalo Point, Manitoba where he worked and met a whole new group of friends.    A celebration of Cody’s life will be held on Saturday, July 9, 2016, at 11:00 a.m. in Westwood Community Church, 401 Westwood Drive, Winnipeg, with Rev. Don McIntyre, presider.   In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to a charity of your choice.   Wojcik’s Funeral Chapels & Crematorium, Winnipeg, 2157 Portage Avenue, 204.897.4665 www.wojciksfuneralchapel.com
