Cody's father, Kevin Lyster, is a police officer on the Univeristy of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. "One thing I looked forward to is, there’s a ceremony when you join a police department, and it’s called the pinning of the badge. This disease, this virus is horrible and it took my son," Kevin said.
"Cody's a strong individual. He's an athlete, he's a baseball player," Kevin said, adding, "This virus doesn't discriminate."
Cody's mother Lea Ann Lyster said, "He had the most infectious smile. I mean, that kid's smile just lit up a room," she said. "He was taken from us way too soon."
