THE CODY PETZOLD RAINBOW ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIP
Dear Friends and Family,
This holiday season sadly marks two years since we said goodbye to our amazing Cody. His enthusiasm for life never shined brighter than during the holidays, his favorite season. As Cody lived, may he also be remembered as a promoter of positive change. The Cody Petzold Rainbow Endowed Scholarship will advance change by assisting other vibrant young leaders like Cody. It is our wish to commemorate the anniversary of his passing not with sorrow, but with hope of completing the final steps of his scholarship and creating a positive legacy. With your help, we CAN make the Cody Petzold Rainbow Endowed Scholarship a reality by Christmas. Together, we CAN give the ultimate gift of helping others!!!
Sincerely, David and Susan Petzold
