Wyatt Henry James Hibbard, the light and love of Cody and Tiffany Hibbard, passed away unexpectedly in his sleep on July 21, 2021, at 2-years-old.

Wyatt will be remembered for his contagious laugh, his exuberant happiness, unending curiosity, and his fierce independence.

Wyatt loved his mom and dad so, so much. He was happiest at the park, being outside, and driving his John Deere tractor. He loved Blue's Clues, Buzz Lightyear, Mickey Mouse, his two kitties, and watching NASCAR with his daddy. He was such a good boy and the most handsome little flirt, and made everyone he met smile.

His time on earth may have been short, but he made such an impact on all of our lives. He will always be remembered as the feisty little redhead that made Tiffany and Cody parents, and gave them purpose in life.

Wyatt is survived by a family that loves him so much: his parents, Cody and Tiffany (Woodworth) Hibbard of Petoskey; his grandpa, Ken Woodworth; his auntie, Kristina Woodworth, Uncle Adam and Aunt Madi Woodworth; and great-grandparents, Charles and Elizabeth Woodworth of Kingsley; as well as his grandma Tammy and grandpa Ken Hibbard of North Carolina; aunts, Ashleigh, Holly, Brandy, Autumn, and Breeanna; and cousin, Abigail Hibbard of North Carolina; and many loving extended family members.

He was greeted in heaven by his angel grandmother, Tina Woodworth, who surely has him wrapped up tight in her arms.

Private family services will be held with interment in Evergreen Cemetery in Kingsley.

Beacon Cremation and Funeral Service, Covell-Kingsley Chapel is in charge of the arrangements.

The family is asking that any donations be sent to them directly, or via the GoFundMe linked here:
