Cotty was survived by his children Evan and Tegan, his parents Kristi and Dale, his siblings Megan, Brittany, and Rebecca, his paternal grandmother Sandra, maternal grandfather Roger, and his wonderful nieces and nephews. Cotty was a caring, joking, loving, grab you in a hug and kiss you, gentle soul. He loved nature, animals, to go fishing, and his family. He lived at Ground 40 off and on the past 2 years and through them he found God and life long brothers. He will forever be in our hearts!
