Dear Claude and Pat,
This unexpected and sudden tragic loss of your son Cody Stuart must be so devastating and seem so senseless. Only you can possibly fathom the depth of your pain. Allow us however as family and friends, who surround you with love at this hour, to carry that heavy cross with you.
Don't stand alone. Reach out to others
who can be present to you and quietly feel your pain. May you find a sense of solidarity in your transition and comfort in the love that surrounds you. Rest assured of my prayers.
With love,
Rev. John Audibert

Remembering Cody & Remembering You

I thought of Cody today, but that is nothing new. I thought of Cody yesterday, and will tomorrow too.

And I also think of you as well, even though you make no outward show. For what it means to lose a child, I will never truly know.

Remembering Cody will be easy, he was such a special joy each day. But I will remember your heartache as well, which I know will never go away.
The Loss of a Child is VERY HARD to ENDURE!!! Know that Cody's Family, Sara, and Who All Cody TOUCHED is in MY DEEPEST PRAYERS and THOUGHTS!!! May GOD give you the STRENGHTH to GET Through this time!!!
