Mike and families; I wish to express my sympathy on the loss of your dear Cody. Mike, I remember how very much Cody meant to you. When we worked together at Methodist Hospital in the Pharmacy, you were always talking about Cody. He was your favorite topic! I know that it does not seem possible, but one day; smiles will come easier than the tears. I hope and pray that you will share your grief and your memories of Cody with each other, and your friends. Lean on each other, the road does not have to be traveled alone. I will keep your families in my thoughts and prayers in the months ahead.

Dorcia,
I am so sorry to hear the news of Cody's passing. I worked with you at Luther Park many years ago and I remember seeing Cody as a little boy. I don't think I know of a Mother as proud of her son as you were when we worked together. He truly was the love of your life.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.
