Obituary for Cody Michael Reffitt Cody Michael Reffitt, 26, of Kewadin, passed away Wednesday, July 25, 2018 at Munson Medical Center surrounded by his family and friends after 3 years of courageously battling an aggressive cancer. Cody was born March 10, 1992 to Ron Reffitt Jr. and Tami Reffitt in Traverse City. Cody attended Elk Rapids Schools and graduated from Elk Rapids High School in 2010.
After graduation, he worked for the family business, Peninsula Construction & Design, as a laborer until his illness wouldn’t allow such. On August 6, 2012, Cody became the proud dad of his only child, Jaxon Crew. On August 19, 2017, Cody married the long time, love of his life, Maria Reffitt, at A-Ga-Ming Golf Resort in Kewadin.
His love for his family was infinite. Cody was an avid outdoorsman; enjoying hunting on his family’s farm in Mancelona, yearly hunting trips to Wyoming, fishing the small local lakes and the brackish water of the St. Lucie River in Florida. Cody was known for keeping his truck in pristine condition, his sarcastic witty comments and comebacks, his charming smile and laugh and his stubborn behavior.
Just like his dad who battled the same aggressive illness; Cody fought hard until the very end and never complained about his illness. Cody is survived by his beloved wife Maria Reffitt; son Jaxon Reffitt; mother Tami Reffitt; sister Jennifer (Brandon) Springstead; brother Ron Reffitt, III; grandparents Ronald Sr. and Donna Reffitt and Dina Quick; uncle Kevin Reffitt; nieces Charlotte Reffitt and Tegan Springstead; nephew Blake Springstead; many cousins; amazing friends David Batdorf, Ryan Finch and Andy Kamp; and his loyal pup, Molly. He was preceded in death by his father Ron Reffitt Jr. and grandfather Gary Quick.
