Obituary of Justin Thomas Bode

Justin Thomas Bode was born at Grand Forks Air Force Base, North Dakota, on January 20, 1981, and passed away on October 26, 2022. 

Justin lived life at full speed.  He loved many things but nothing or anyone more than he loved his son, Ryan.  Justin looked forward to Ryan’s football games, going to Urban Air, playing video games together, and getting Ryan haircuts. 

He loved spending time with his close friends.  He was a part of the Dogpile Men’s Group and became family with his brothers in sobriety and life.  His family is extremely grateful to hear and read about the impact he had on the lives of others and the friendships he built.  

Justin loved fishing, softball, basketball, weightlifting, riding his motorcycle, buying Jordan shoes and Yankee hats.  He would spend hours doing the things he loved and fully invested in everything he committed to.  

He is survived by his son, Ryan Bode; parents, Roy and Elli Bode; brother, Joshua C. Bode; and nephew, Joshua D. Bode. 

The family especially thanks the wonderful people at the Ada County Drug Court, the fellowship and family of AA and NA, expressly the Dogpile Men’s Group, and all the great friends and family who have spread love and kindness through fond memories of Justin.
