Hi Anna,
I know that there isn’t anything I could say to take away the pain. But please know I’m here for you, whatever you need. No words can express the pain that you are going through. My prayer is that God will give you strength to face the coming days ahead
There are no words that can explain the sorrow and pain we feel for the loss of your son. They will be greatly missed.
I imagine there is no pain deeper than losing a child. My heart and prayers go out to you at this most difficult time
Those we love don’t go away. They walk beside us everyday. Unseen, unheard, but always near. Still loved, still missed and very dear
T. says
I am very sorry to hear of your loss and would like to offer my condolences to the family. In Psalm 34:18, I hope may bring comfort as it mentions that God is close to those broken in heart and He saves those crushed in spirit. My deep regards.
Al and Barb Eli says
Bob and Anna Reading the paper on line to learn of your loss of Cody. Words can’t tell how we feel for you.

I was blessed with the opportunity to be Cody’s art teacher and when he was in seventh grade, I noticed Cody begin to open up and show his witty personality. During studio time, while the class was quietly working on their projects, Cody started telling stories. He told these stories while he worked on his projects. These were stories that broke the silence, made his peers and I laugh, and lightened the spirits in the classroom. Cody made the stories up but he told them as if he had told them hundreds of times before and we all enjoyed them. I am proud to have been his art teacher and I’m happy to have known him while getting to become friends with his family along the way. I will miss Cody, and his goofy stories.
Sara and Justin Murgel says

I would like to express my heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your dear son, Cody. How heavy your heart must be. I hope that you will find comfort in the words of Jesus at John 5:28,29 where he promised that the day is coming when he is going to resurrect back to life those in the grave. And they will be brought back to a beautiful paradise earth with no more sickness or tragedies, able to continue living life to the full. (Psalm 37:11,29) (Isaiah 33:24) Until then, it is just like your precious Cody is sleeping. (John 11:11-13) May your family draw strength from Jehovah, the God of all Comfort.
