Hello Coday,
I drove by the place this morning and thought of you. Well I always think of you. Then the most amazing song came on the radio and I thought of you and Jeremy at the same time. You know the When I get where im going song. Well it just happened to be pouring down rain and I just had to laugh a little. I could just see you guys riding a drop of rain, and probably laughing at me while im driving through those drops of rain thinking of you.
You know the deal with me. But I can still use your help with Kayla, she has such a hard time dealing with this. I know you have given her some signs so she will know you are happy. If you can give her one more at least. Ask her to try to go on and find some peace in her heart, you are in a much better place and she will see you again one day, when the time is right.

Now to more brighter times, I guess you know it is deer season and she has hit two so far. Well in honor of you I will fix your favorite dinner soon. I only wish you could be here, however I also know it could never compare to the perfect place you are now.

With a whole bunch of love, I will close, you know I will always think of you and hold you in my heart.
Karen I am also thinking of you and the hard time you are having.
You will also be in my heart forever.

I came to see you the other day. I think I had just missed John Flinchum, because that cigarette he left for you was fresh... Even though youre not here, you make me feel so much better. Because I can talk to you and you listen and dont say anything back, and sometimes thats what I need. Ill be to see you soon, we need to talk. Ive learned to listen to the birds chirp. I know thats when youre talking back. I love you Cody.

Hey Cody. Havent talked to you or been to see you in a while. I moved from Walkertown, and live in Stanleyville [not much difference]. But just because I havent talked or seen you in a while doesnt mean I dont still think about you. Youre with me everywhere I go; you and my gramma are my guardian Angels, especially when Im driving. I havent talked to you dad in a long time either. He used to call up to Papa Johns in Walkertown every night and order BBQ Wings and either chickenstrips or cheesesticks. It really made my day to talk to him on the phone, and I think it made his to talk to me too. I listen to the CD your mom let me copy a lot too [Thank You Karen, for the CD and the decal]. I miss you, and things are getting kinda rough for me lately. Ill come see you soon. I love you! Keep that seat for me.

Coday,



Hey baby it's me again. I was just wondering how you were donig. I hopes it's better then us down here. It seems like everything is falling apart all over again. And it sucks. Time isn't going by any faster, it just seems slower. Last year at this time we were going tubing or to the fair, either way having the time of our lives! I'm gald I got to spend all those wonderful memories with you and you only. That ment the world to me. But I get up every morning and I look at those beautiful eyes and keep going. Every mile was a memory! I love you coday don't ever forget that!



Your True love always,

Coday,

Hey baby. It's hard to believe it's been this long since you left me. And to think at this time 7 months ago we were at my moma's house waiting on her to say "Ya'll come eat"! We left there and you drove my sister home, then it was back to Walkertown. Why did we ever go back to Walnut Cove that night? Well we did and that gave me a guarantee that we would be together forever! And we will for all of eternity. I love you with all my heart Coday, don't ever forget that. I bought you something today! Wonder what it is? No because you already know. Well I'm going to wait on Clark to get here now. He doesn't usually leave me alone on the 16th of each month. We have great friends you know that right? Yeah. Well I'll let you rest now. I love you baby!

Clark does too!

Love Cheif!~!

Hey Cody. Gosh do I miss you. I think about you everyday. How I missed the opportunity to get to talk to you in the hallway at school. We haven't talked since elementary school. But now all I have are memories. Gena, I love you like a sister and I'm deeply sorry. I also wanted to let your family know that there is a literary magazine that I am in charge of at carver high school and I am dedicating that magazine to you. I miss you so much Cody...

Cody,

I miss you. I know that I didn't come to the funeral or the wake and I am soo sorry for that but you know that you and I have been friends ever since we first met in the sixth grade, and I just couldn't bare to see you like that. I still can't even bare to think about it. I talked to Eric the other night, and we talked about how much we miss you. I told him about how everyone claims they were your pal now that your gone, and you know what he told me? He said " Andrea, if cody could, he would tell you right now the he loves you." I didn't know what to say, I just broke down and cried. I know all this is a little late, but you've been on my mind for a while now and I just had to write you. I never expected you to go, ya know. The day you died I picked up the phone to call your house and ask for you... I wanted so much not to believe it.I can't deal with stuff like that. And it scares me to even think that there is a heaven, and when I die I wont remember all the good times we had, or what a great person you were.I guess what I'm trying to say is I should have told you, but I love you to death. I always have. You've always been my boy, from sneaking out to partying you and me were always close. Maybe none of this makes sense and it probably doesn't but i miss you so damn much it's unbelieveable.I hope that you have met my daddy, and that you two are friends. Im sure he likes you.I bet the first thing he told you was "i coulda kicked your butt when you got her to sneak out!" hahaha. I know that you and I weren't on the best terms at that time, but I just want you to know that I was never mad at you, and that I love you and I'm sorry for all that. I haven't talked to Kayla much, but I know that she loved you, Michael too. Please just know that we all love you. And that you were taken from us way too early. Everytime I see Gena I have to hug her, because when I look at her I see you. From the way she acts and everything, I see you. She's just like you ya know. I am so sorry that I haven't sone this sooner, and I am soo soo sorry that I didnt come, and I'm even sorrier that I still haven't been to you grave. Please forgive me. Please. I miss you dearly Cody Van Cox, I wish you would come home.

I cant begin to tell you how much I miss you Cody. I see you atleast once a week. Even though we werent nearly as close as you to your family or other friends, or Kayla, I feel you there when Im talking to you, asking you to help me through. Sometimes its just nice to have someone to talk to, and not get a response; just needing someone to listen to you. I know you hear me. I miss you dearly. Its not the same for me at school. I was so happy to see you bouncing down the hallway, shoot me a ray of sunshine from your smile as you said 'hey Samantha.' When I left Southeastern, I honestly never thought I would see you again. Then I bought my first horse, and rode to your house almost everyday. I went to South Stokes from February 2003 until the end of the school year, but you werent there. Then, my senior year, OPEN HOUSE to be exact, I see you in the halls of Carver High School, and all I could think about was, 'WOW, I thought Id never see him again.' Then I said hey to you, and you actually remembered me! From that point until you stopped coming to school, everyday you would acknowledge me. Two days after you passed away, I walked by your 3rd period on my way to lunch and glanced in like I always did to see you, and all I saw was your empty seat. I completely lost it. I miss you so much. You were such a ray of light on any dark day. Save me a seat with you! Ill see you in the hallways again someday!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY BABY!

This valentines day ain't like last years. I know you are here with me and for that reason I am thankful. God let us spend everyday together while you were here, and now he's letting me spend the rest of my days with you in my heart (not that you weren't in there before). I got to drive your truck again Saturday. Clark came out here. All we talked about was you. You knew that though didn't you? I know you were in there with us, making sure I didn't have as much fun in it as I did last time! I can still remember last valentines day, sittin on your couch playin basket ball. JJ hittin those 3's. You did it everytime. Well, I guess until the next time I get to spend a hevenly valentines day with you... I shall wait. Keep watching me and give me strength~

I love you FOREVER CODAY!~!

Dear Karen,

Not a day goes by that Brandon and I don't think about Cody. I think about you guys too all the time wondering how you're doing. We just want you to know that we love you guys very much. I wasn't ever around Cody that much but I still miss him. Brandon hides his emotions a lot but you can tell when he looks at Cody's picture that he misses him so much (his eyes tear up).Christmas was definitely not the same without him. Brandon and I just waited for Aunt Teese's door to open and him come through the door and say "What's up guys?" but that didn't happen. Little Jada even knows who he is, we have his picture on our mantle, along with his Christmas ornament and that picture of him, Bryan & Brandon playing basketball in the rain, and we'll point to it and say "Jada who's that?" and she'll tell you exactly who it is! I wish she could have known him a little better. Well We Love you all! We're here for you ANYTIME!!!



We love and miss you Cody!

Love, Brandon Courtney & Jada

Cody,

Hey baby I miss you. Today it has been 2 months. It doesn't at all feel like it's been that long. It will continue to only be longer. But oh, how I can't wait until you come back here to this cruel world to get me. I will be so happy when I see your face again. I get up every morning and wonder... is today my day? When will my turn come? When will God take me out of this curel world and bring me into his beautiful kingdom?¿? I wonder what it's like on the other side? I bet you love it there. I also bet you are just as sad as we are because you have to watch us handle being here without you. I don't know how everyone else is taking it, but as you can tell I'm having a really hard time. Wednesday was really bad. All I could think about sitting at my own house was you asking me if I was going to eat all of my deer gravy. Not ever knowing that it would be your last meal before the Lord took you home. Today will be just as bad. I told Jamie that I wished the tables were turned and that it would have been me instead of you. She told me that we would both be gone then. I would rather us be together more than anything. God didn't want that to happen. That wasn't God's plan for us though. I don't know what my plan is yet. But I do know that it is in God's hands and he will take care of me. As long as you watch over me... I will be okay. I know you are here with me... I can hear you. Only when you want me to though. Maybe only when I want to. It could be both. Well, I just wanted to tell you that I still and will always continue to love you with all my heart. We will be eternial. I believe!~! Until the day when my beautiful angel Cody comes back to get me... I shall wait. I love you CODAY!~! Forever

Love,

Dear Karen,

It has taken me awhile to get to the place where I could atually write something on Cody's guest book. I guess I am somewhat still in denial. I have reflected back on my memories of Cody. I remember the day you told me you were pregnant. We laughed because now it was your turn to experience the "Blue" stick color. I remember his birth and how we thought it was so neat to have our kids so close together. We would talk about how they would grow up together like you and I did. (Well, not exactly like you and I.) (hahaha) I recall the visits to Westfield and picking on you for your "country living". You would say, "It's a great place for kids."



When Cody started school I think back on the times he would call me to tell me he made honor roll. I would tell him how smart he was and that I was so proud of him. The times Cody would be somewhat mischievous, you would make him call me to explain his actions. Cody would call me, we discussed it and the conversation ended with us laughing and picking on you for being strict. I recall talking to Cody when there was a time in his life that required him to be the man of the house. He was ready and willing to take on that responsibility. He threw his shoulders back, smiled and was proud to take that role even though he was still very young. The last time I actually saw Cody was when he was 15. He was turning into a little man. He had matured so much. He still had that baby face but he seemed so tall compared to myself.



Karen, please take pride and comfort in the fact that you raised such a sweet and loving young man. Although as parents we feel our kids may not like us at times, you and I both know Cody adored you. There is no greater love or bond than that of a mother and a son.

We have asked each other many times why did this have to happen. We know we really won't find a straight answer for that in this world. I do know that when God needs an extra angel, he sends for one. (He got a good one) We also know that God makes no mistakes in his plans for each of us.



I have no magic words to take away the pain you are going through. God knows I wish I did. The words I can give you are that I love you, I pray for you, and I am always here for you.

Hey ya'll. I hope that everyone is doing ok. I know how hard it has been for yall. Its been the same for me. I found some old pictures of me, Cody and Gena the other day when I was cleaning my basement. Me and momma prayed for yall when we found them. I hope that everyone is ok and im still praying. Remember that if you need anything to call me! I love yall very much!



I miss you Cody! And I love you very much!!

Happy New Year baby!

You didn't get to see 2006. It's the same as 2005 except you're not here. That sucks bad. I guess that just means it's another year closer to seeing you again. And that day I just can't seem to wait for. I think about you in every breath I take. It's almost been 2 months now and I just don't seem to want to be here without you anymore. But... we shall be eterinal, if you believe, we shall never, never, never part. I know that what you believe so I really shouldn't have anything to worry about. I know you protect me and watch over me and I never drive faster then you can fly!~!

I love you baby!

Karen,Gena,Jr,Van. Looking through some old note books I found something I wrote one night when I was struggling.This is for you.

On fragil wings of angles

I'm lifted through the night.

The Lord has lifted up my soul

and pulled to the light.

Tonight I pray that God will stay

and help me win this fight.

On fragil wings of angles

Im lifted to the light.

Each time I fall I'm struck with awl

by God's amazing grace.

He'll pick me up and dust me off

and slap me in the face.

Says get up son we're not quite done,

we've got a ways to go.

Your faith in me is all you need.

My Love Will Lead You On.

I Love you all. Stay strong for Gena and Kayla. They are way to young and tender to handle all this alone. Love Kenny

To the Love of my Life,

Oh how I miss you. So very much. I just wish you were here. I know you are, but I want to be able to see you and I can't. I was there Friday night. Just sitting there. I cried so hard for so long. I could feel you all around me. The pain ain't getting any easier. Its been a month and 4 days. It just doesn't seem real. Sometimes when I'm in the car listening to your music, I remember really funny stuff you use to do to me. ~Bloop-Bloop~ I always laugh so hard, I know if anybody saw me they would think I was crazy! You know I am. I wish so much that you were still here with me. Sittin at the chill spot all night long. We have so many wonderful memories together. Only 2 bad memories. We always worked through our arguements. I love you with all my heart cody. It hurts more when I go to your moma's house and before I leave she is crying. What am I susposed to say to her? Nothing I say will bring you back to her. That's all she wants. And all I want. Please let her know that I did everything I could to help you. I'm so sorry I didn't do more. I think about you all the time and sometimes I think I hear you. Is it you? Let me know tonight. You know what I'm talking about too. It's not the old lady any more. I have dreams about you all the time, but I wake up and the only thing I can remember is that you were in it. It still makes me happy because I can see you in them and we are together, like we should be now. I went to see you again Monday, and the balloon that I got for you was busted. I hope you're not mad at me. I know you love me, but I guess I'm just selfish. I want you here, with me and your moma and your sissy. We all miss you cody. Even fuzzy-wuzzy! Jr. too, you can see it in his eyes. He's tryin so hard to be strong for Karen, but if you look in his eyes, you can see that he hurts just as bad as she does. I wish your moma just wouldn't cry any more. When I see it, it hurts me because all I can see in her face is you. So it seems like you are crying too. I love you baby! I just want you back, so that nobody hurts inside any more. I go see you almost everyday. I hope you're watching over me. Most of the time. You're on my mind constantly. That's not surprising though. You have been for the past 16 months! I can't wait to hold you again baby. I hope I see you soon! I love you!~!

A Poem from Mom,Jr& Gena,

I wrote this on one of the many nights I just could'nt sleep. I miss your smiling face, the bounce in your step the Big Hugs when you knew I needed one. Your Sissy is Heartbroken she along with all of us just don't understand and propably won't until it's our turn to go see the Father!

The Dogs are even acting strange they know something is terrible wrong when all your friends come & you are not with them.

I had went shopping the day you were killed and bought gifts for you. Little did I know & Angel would come to get you that day,and take you home.





Dear Cody,

Let your SoulShine!

Let it Shine always in our Hearts our Souls & Minds.

Let it help guide us through our Good & Hard times.

Let it Shine bright in your new home Devine!

Let it Shine & Greet us when God says it's Our Time.

Oh Baby, Let your SoulShine!!!

Lots of Love,

Mom,Jr, Gena & Family,

Also Your many Friends.

To Karen,

You were always like a second mother to me. I know that you are lost without Cody but just remember all the good times. you have been in my prayers since I first heard. Gena has my #. If you need anything then just give me a call. I love you very much.



Gena,

Girl, you are getting soo big. you are just like a little sister. I still remember everything. I'm always here! I love you very much.



To Cody,

You were always such a wonderful person. I loved you very much. I still remember playing on the play set when you lived in the house at the corner. Acorn fights and getting into trouble. You were one of my first friends that i made when i moved to Walkertown and you were great. I will always remember you and you will always be in my heart. I miss you greatly and i love you very much.

Cody I will miss u. Even though we only hung out for a little bit. I can still remember hanging out with you and Brandon in the Ingles parking lot after work, and you always giving me those goodbye hugs. You will truely be missed you are and, always will be in my heart as well as everyone elses.



Kayla I know we never really talked at school but I truely can't imagaine what you are going through to lose the love of your life.I am truley sorry for your loss and, I will be praying for you. Just always remember the good times you had with Cody,and that one day we will all get to see his loving face again.



To the Family I went to school with Cody and we worked together at Ingles for a little while it broke my heart when I heard about his passing. I am so so sorry for your loss it is going to be hard, no one will ever replace Cody but just remember he is in a better place watching over you all I will be praying for you.

December 6, 2005

Dear Karen and family,

I was devastated when Kayla called me early that Thursday morning. I could barely hear her words through the tears. Cody was the most wonderful and caring person. He spent every Wednesday night and many other nights with my family, and he was always so considerate. I am so sorry for your loss. He will truly be missed. If you need anything at all, please do not hesitate to email.



Kayla,

I cannot imagine what you must be going through. Cody was your everything, and he was so wonderful. Nothing will ever replace him and nothing ever should. Things happen in our lives that we never understand, but everything happens for a reason. Nothing I can say or do will ever make you feel better, but please know that your big sis will always be here for you if you need a shoulder to cry on, someone to talk to, or just a place to hang out. Time will heal your pain. I love you with all of my heart, Kayla.



Cody, not a day goes by that I don’t think of you and wish you would come back to us. You watch over Kayla for me. :) I love you!

December 5, 2005

Cody,

It feels like it's been so long since you left me, but it's only been 19 days. I miss you like crazy. This is the longest ive been without you in a while. Everyday I wake up and hope that it was all just a dream. It's not, not at all. I don't know how I would make it without you if it wasn't for our best friend Clark. He is taking it just as bad as I am. We always talk about you and remember all the crazy stuff you use to do. You were my everything, my whole world. We were going to spend the rest of our lives together. You would have made me so happy. We were going to play "Forever" at our wedding, I never thought I would have to play it at your funeral. It was too much too fast! Your birthday is Sunday and I still remember the tatoo you wanted me to buy for you. You can't have it. I can't wait until I get up there with you and I see that big smile on your face when you see me again!~! I keep wishing that I could have done more for you, but I couldn't. Clark often tells me he wishes that he was there. I don't think I could stand losing both of you. They really might have to put me somewhere. I know you are up there having the time of your life meeting everybody. Say hey to Chad and papa for me. Tell them that I love them and that I will be up there soon enough. Hopefully sooner rather then later. I'd do just about anything to be with you now. I know you wouldn't want that for me though. So when my time comes, even if its in 100 years from now I hope you are still waiting for me. Like you always said you would. I know you will be. You will always have my whole heart. I know I have to move on and eventually get married. He will never be as good to me as you were. I love you with all my heart Cody Cox. Don't ever forget that.



Karen,

I know you are lost without Cody, but so am I. I'd do anything to bring him back but it's just not going to happen. I am so very sorry. Please forgive me. I love you and Jr. both like you were my own parents. I will always be here if you need anything you know my number. I want you to know that i will always love Cody and it shouldn't have happened like this, but I believe that everything happens for a reason. This world is too cruel for him to be here. Thats why he left us. He went to a better place. I would have loved to see his face when he walked through those gates. Just like rays of sunshine. He's home, he just got there before we did. He's waiting.

Jr.,

Cody loved you just like he was you own. Don't ever forget that. You gave him a hard time sometimes, but you just wanted what was right for him and he knew that. He just wanted to get out of here. Go to New Zeland. He got there before I did. He was so loving. He loved you and karen so much. We all love him.

Gena,

Watch out for those boys, eventhough Cody's gone, Clark is not. I love you like you are my own sister. Call me if you need anything.

Van,

I got to know you pretty good since Fathers day. Eventhough Cody didn't act like it much, he loves you very much. If you ever need anything, even a bag of ice, just call me and I will be there.



I love you all very much thanks for being a part of my life.

I love you Cody, FOREVER!~!

To Cody,

My brother from another mother. I know for a fact I would have not been able to make it through South Stokes without you man. You were my first real friend there and your friendship meant more than you ever knew. I can't believe your gone, and I love you man.



To Karen Jr. and Gena,

You guys accepted me as your own and I would give anything to be hangin' out in your basement with Cody again. I love yall and i'll see ya soon.

dear karen, jr.,van, and family i dont know where to start. cody was at my house almost everyday. he was kayla's best friend, she is lost without him, as well as all of our family. i can remember the 1st time i met him. when i came home from work, he was washing my dishes. the first thought is well, somebody raised him right.but that was just cody. anything he could do to help out.when i had the bright idea to paint my house he saved me and ended up doing most of it himself. i was sorta in the way, although he would never say so. he had a joy for life, and he loved his family with all his heart. i can never tell you all how much he loved you. i could go on all day about the good things he did. he was always well mannered and polite, and any parent knows where the good stuff comes from. i know my kayla is lost without him, but time will heal her pain. and only time will help you, karen. my heart goes out to you and all of the family.i love you cody. and as i always say be carefull and be good. love joyce and mike.

To Karen, Junior, and Gena, I love you guys more than anything. You will always be family to me. I just want to thank you SOO much for allowing Cody to be a huge part of my life. Cody was one of a kind and I know he is smiling down on us right now. You guys are forever in my heart. I will never ever know the pain that you are feeling but I know that God has his reasons and Cody is a part of his plan. One day the pain wont be as harsh and I cant wait til that day. I will always be just a phone call away.



To Cody, you were my first love, my first kiss, and my first real boyfriend. How I would give anything in this world to go back to the good old days...you made me the happiest girl in the world. No one has ever been able to make me laugh the way you did. You are truly missed Cody. I'm sorry we didnt hang out as much these last couple of years but I cant wait til that day I will reunite with you in heaven. I know you are watching over us all now and that makes me smile each and every day. I find myself constantly talking to you and wondering what you are doing. Pictures are all over my room, in my books, and that turtle keeps me company each night. I find myself making it giggle just to think of your laugh. I love you Cody and you will ALWAYS hold a piece of my heart. I cant wait to see you again.



RIP CODY VAN COX

I LOVE YOU!

I would just like the family to know that you are in my heart. I knew Cody from elementary school and didnt even know he was attending my high school. I can remember him as a fun person to be around. Many people say they cant imagine what you are going through but I can because i have lost friends and family the same way. Keep faith and you will make it through this tough time.

To cody,

It was really a shock to hear about you cody. It really hurts to know that your gone forever and i'll never get to hang with you again. You we're really good to me. You cared how I felt and you always made sure I was happy or at least tried your best to get me that way. You'll always be remembered in my heart and I know everyone elses as well. I really love you and i'm gonna miss you.

Love Always, Shell

To the family,

I'm a friend of codys, we went to school at south together. I'm so sorry to hear about him. I'm so confused and hurt about it. Cody was a good friend to me. To alot of other people also. He made me feel better when i was down, he always made me laugh, he was such a good person and i'm glad i had the chance to know him, and to have him as my friend. Again i'm really sorry this happened to cody and i'm praying for the whole family.

RIP CODY VAN COX I LOVE YOU

I grew up with cody until i moved in 7th grade. I loved him like a brother, we would talk about every two or three months after i moved. I just moved back to Walnut Cove, and me and cody were going to hang out but the good Lord took him to a better place. Rest in Peace.

There has been nothing but prayer and time that has even began to ease my pain.



I am here for you Karen at anytime!!



Love you all! Patty, Josh and Magen Crow

You are one of the strongest people I know and I know you and Jenna both will get through this with time and love of friends and family. I love ya'll

Im deeply sorry for you loss. Cody was one of my good friends, since middle school and I recently was given the chance to get re-aquainted with him at Carver. He was a good kid, and always said hey to me when he passed me in the halls, or waved at me if he could see me when I happened to walk by his classes. I miss him terribly and cant imagine how it is for the family, but please know that you all are in my prayers, and he loves you all dearly.
