Cody was so blessed to be part of your family and condolences on your loss. I recall a writing of a conversation someone had with God regarding the exceptional families that care for special children and although I don't recall it all it ended with them asking God "what Saint looks over these special persons?" And God responded "they only need to look in a mirror"
May you realize how special you all are!

My heart is with all of you while you deal with this unimaginable loss. I haven't seen Cody since I was welcomed into the home as his Kindergarten instructor so many years ago. I enjoyed spending time at the kitchen table with Cody, especially when he wanted to just hang out and joke around. He had such a loving heart and fabulous sense of humor even at such a young age. He was incredibly blessed to be born into such a loving family. Wishing you all peace as you hold him in your hearts.
