In Remembrance of John Cody

1997 - 2024

Baby brother,

My butter bean, you had so much potential. You were so talented and intelligent. A brilliant composer, musician, writer, and naturalist. 

Words cannot express the devastation that I feel. I will forever carry you with me in my heart. I understand the pain you carried and will always regret not being able to help you see the beauty that you were. 

I will be strong for you. I will shine my light brighter now in hopes to never fail someone else lost on their way. 

I love you deeply. Always and forever.

Your sister,

Mandy 

 

When you think the night has seen your mind
That inside you're twisted and unkind
Let me stand to show that you are blind
Please put down your hands
'Cause I see you
I find it hard to believe you don't know
The beauty you are
But if you don't, let me be your eyes
A hand to your darkness so you won't be afraid...

- Lou Reed
