Uplift Kodi's Family in Their Time of Need
Donation protected
My name is Marissa Smith and I am starting this fundraiser for my best friend Kodi Dobbins and her sweet family. Last night her husband Joshua suddenly and unexpectedly passed, leaving her and two young children behind. She is now faced with funeral expenses, medical expenses, and childcare expenses as he was the children's primary caregiver. Her whole world has been flipped upside down in an instant and the last thing she needs to worry about is funds to make the world keep spinning. All funds go directly to Kodi and her children to cover any needed expenses during this time. Please keep the Dobbins family in your prayers during this very difficult time.
Joshua Tadd Dobbins, age 32, of Ames, passed away on Monday, May 6, 2024.
A Celebration of Life will be held at 3:30 P.M. on Friday, May 17, 2024 at the Adams Funeral Home, 502 Douglas Ave., Ames. Visitation will be held for one hour prior to the service at the funeral home.
Funeral arrangements are under the direction of the Adams Funeral Home and online condolences may be left for Josh's family at www.adamssoderstrum.com. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to the Family of Joshua Dobbins.
