Cory C. Caudell, 39, died April 4,
2019, at Diversicare in Sedgwick. He was born Aug. 30, 1979, in
Newton, to Mark Caudell and Teresa (Kirchmer) Stucky.
Cory was a 1998 graduate of Newton High

known for his unique sense of humor and the easy way he made friends.

met a stranger. He liked spending time talking and laughing with
friends and family. He enjoyed fishing, playing softball and
listening to music, but his greatest joy in life was his children.

and stepfather Don Stucky; father, Mark Caudell; children, Caleb and
Annika Caudell; sisters, Tara (Nick) Schmidt, Kylie (Bo) Tucker and
Chelsey Caudell; grandparents, Chuck (Nancy) Caudell and Jan Caudell;
