The longtime WSM radio personality and Grand Ole Opry announcer died Tuesday in Nashville at age 67, according to a Facebook post from WSM Radio.
In recent weeks, many members of the country music community had shared requests for prayers after Cody's daughter revealed that he was in critical condition and in need of heart and kidney transplants.
"We will never be able to thank everyone for the outpouring of love and the sincere prayers over the last few weeks," his daughter wrote on Facebook. "We know God heard them and we feel a deep peace that one day we will understand why God chose to still take him."
"There might be someone somewhere in the world who loved country music as much, but nobody loved country music more than Bill Cody," Garth Brooks said.
Carly Pearce also honored her friend, saying, "Bill Cody devoted his life to telling the story of country music. With a legacy spanning decades, he will be marked as one of the greatest of all time."
Over the course of his career, he became one of country radio's most respected personalities. He was inducted into the Country Music Disc Jockey Hall of Fame in 2008 and received a star on Nashville's Music City Walk of Fame in 2024. He is also set to be inducted posthumously into the Tennessee Radio Hall of Fame later this year.
"Everyone at the Grand Ole Opry, in country music, in Nashville, and across the country will remember Bill for his profound gravitas, his incredible voice, and his positive and infectious enthusiasm for country music," Moore said.
