Cody Lambotte passed away today. Below is what Allen Zlatnick had to say about him.
To me he was a neighbor, a friend, a co-worker, and an assistant coach. I can’t tell you how many miles he traveled with our family to attend wrestling tournaments. He worked tirelessly for the city of Rossville as a summer time employee and when he wasn’t doing that he was helping me coach football and after that it was off to help the wrestlers. He was a bundle of energy and was loved by all. He will be missed by many. Have loved working with many of my assistants coaches but working with Cody and Joe is something I will always cherish. Love you Cody.
