Not sure what to say?

I'm very sorry to hear about Wilmer's passing. Also sorry to learn that Caroline died in 2016. They were both very popular in high school and were class favorites in the Mohian. Wilmer and I were in a musical together in our senior year called "The Belles of Bagdad" in which we sang and did a simple tap dance together. Fun memories. My deepest sympathy to the family.

I was sorry to hear of the death of Wilmer. We attended grammar school at Leinkauf. There was a reunion held in later years to enjoy seeing the ones that attended Leinkauf in the good old days.

Offering my deepest sympathy in behalf of the Cody family in this time of sorrow. May you find peace in God during this difficult time.

Thank you, Mr. Cody, for what you taught me in the fourth grade at Westlawn School. It has stayed with me all these years. I am sure your words have many lives better. May the God of all hope wrap his loving arms around all those who are saddened by your passing.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.

May God be with the family during this most difficult time.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
