Detective Sergeant Cody Michael Becker, 39, of Spring Grove, went to be with Our Heavenly Father on September 17, 2025, while serving with the Northern York County Regional Police Department. He was the beloved husband of Jordan L. (Mitzel) Becker, whom he married on June 30, 2018.  Born on September 19, 1985, at Hanover Hospital, Cody was the cherished son of Jody L. (Hartlaub) Becker of Hanover and Thomas Becker of East Berlin.

A 2004 graduate of Spring Grove Area High School, Cody excelled as a three-sport athlete and served as team captain of the football, wrestling, and baseball teams. His wrestling journey was defined not only by remarkable achievements, including 118 career wins, a .771 winning percentage, four-time district qualification, and recognition as a PIAA state qualifier and Century Club member, but also by the strength of his character. He was known for his humility, dedication, and selflessness, which left a lasting impact on his teammates, coaches, and community.

Cody continued his academic and athletic career at Millersville University, where he became an NCAA Division I East Regional Champion and a two-time national qualifier in 2006 and 2007. He graduated in 2008 and later returned home to mentor young athletes, giving back to the program that had helped shape him. In recognition of his enduring impact, Cody was honored with the Spring Grove Wrestling Alumni of the Year award.

After college, Cody devoted his life to public service with the Northern York County Regional Police Department, where he rose to the rank of Detective Sergeant. Throughout his distinguished career, he received numerous commendations and awards for excellence. On June 8, 2010, he heroically responded to a house fire in North York Borough, climbing to the second story of a burning building to catch children escaping through a window. His actions that day saved a family of four and exemplified his deep commitment to protecting others.

Beyond his professional and athletic accomplishments, Cody was a devoted husband, father, son, and friend. He found his greatest joy in spending time with his wife and children, Canton and Wrynn. He also loved hunting and treasured his time on numerous mountain trips to Potter County, lovingly known as "God's Country."

Besides his parents, his wife, and his beloved children, Cody is survived by his aunts, uncles, cousins, and a niece. Cody was preceded in death by his brother, Adam T. Becker, on December 20, 2022 as well as his maternal grandparents, Ralph and Beverly Hartlaub and paternal grandparents, Edward and Erma Becker.
