Kodey Da'Juan Dunn

Kodey loved his family. He was the 3rd of 4 boys and had his mama’s heart. He and his parents, Roscoe and Kim had an unbreakable bond. Kodey and his brothers were inseparable and nothing or no one could reciprocate their love for one another. Kodey became a father to a beautiful little girl, Ka’liyah Dunn who also stole his heart.

Kodey started school at Hamlet Elementary. He went to middle school at Johnny Allen 6th Grade Campus and Horace Mann. Kodey graduated from Palo Duro High School in May of 2014.

After graduating from high school, Kodey attended Amarillo College. He attended Job Corps and received credentials as a Plumber Pre-Apprentice.

Kodey’s first job was at Burger King. He also worked for Tyson Foods and at Amazon Distribution Center.

Kodey was introduced to sports at an early age, such as track, t-ball, baseball and basketball.  He was a standout athlete and really blossomed his 7th and 8th Grade year running the 400 meter run for Horace Mann’s track team. Kodey had a genuine love for basketball. He started playing basketball in the 2nd grade and continued through High School. Kodey played AAU basketball with the 2014 Amarillo Gators, where he built everlasting friendships with his teammates (brothers). The team was coached by Marlon Sims and Jimaine Westmoreland, who both played a vital role in his upbringing. Kodey also lettered on Palo Duro’s Boys Basketball Varsity team for 4 years.
