Obituary of Cody Daniel McNeill

Cody Daniel McNeill, 32, of Kernersville, NC unexpectedly passed away on Thursday, April 8, 2021.  Cody was born February 9, 1989 to Sonja Rose and Clyde Daniel McNeill.  It was clear early that Cody was very active and adventurous.  He would always do things his way.  Athletically talented, Cody played soccer, football, basketball and baseball.  He rode dirt bikes in arenas and on trails and even competed in bull riding.  He enjoyed being outside, especially by the ocean, loved animals and never met a stranger.  His heart was huge, filled mostly with love for his daughter Skyler Gail McNeill born December 19, 2012.  He loved God, his family and his friends.
