Cody Andrews was my best friend on this earth, She Loved Her Irish Wolfhounds, Her family, and dear friends. She never failed to be supportive, loving, and caring of everyone she knew. Covid the thing she feared the most captured her and sent her to her grave last week, and has left her family devastated with such a horrible death. No friends, No family, no one was able to see her, talk to her, or comfort her in her final days on the earth. Had it not been for the fight for her life by her Loving Daughter and her Sister she would have passed completely alone. She has left behind a grieving family and so many friends who couldn't say Goodbye. Our hearts are broken, her family is in great need at this time to Give to this woman who so gave everything in her life for them her friends, and her dogs. Let us all joining together and unite this family and help them with giving Cody the memorial she so deserves. I ask not for myself but for a friend who stuck by me through thick and thin, who life has so tragically taken from us. Her Grandsons need your help to keep her memory alive. Their Grandmother meant the world to them . Please Help us, and say a prayer for this wonderful family who has welcomed me as one of their own. Peace and Love In Gods Name. Amen.

Letter to Cody address: Heaven above.
My Dear Sweet Cody, it's 4 Am and I sit here grief-stricken on your passing yesterday, I have so many things I wanted to tell you, and I will never have a chance to do that. You have always been there for me, and now you're not, this feeling of emptiness has overcome my spirit, and fills me with such sadness. I have spent a lifetime not having someone like you in my life, and then God sent me you. I have never had anyone who I could count on or trust to love me for just me. You never once in all the years of our friendship said or did anything that offended me, or judged me in any way. Our friendship started out with our love for our dogs and came at the darkest time in my life. You came as a light I had never seen before because my heart had been hurt so many times by others, that I closed off the world. For some strange reason, I couldn't open up to anyone. Then you came and brought comfort, healing, and love and a heart like a lion. You took me under the warmth of your wing and treated me in a way that broke down those walls that seemed to close me off from the rest of the world. You brought me laughter, joy, comfort, and a love that is unexplainable. Though the miles kept us apart, our talks on the phone, the pictures we shared, the visits to Montana where you opened your home and included me as one of the family. The stories and deepest feelings we each had shared came to the surface giving our friendship the bond that only God could give. We never judged each other or had a single harsh word ever. We lifted each other when we were down or hurt about something and filled each other with comfort and uplifting words of wisdom and love. You stood by me when I was sick, you stood by me when I was weak, and even when I was strong. You stood up for me when I couldn't for myself, and which gave me the strength I needed to push on. Lord help anyone who spoke badly about you to me too. We are protective people who love our family and close friends. We are two peas in a pod that shared the same views on life never judging each other's differences. We cheered each other's accomplishments and battles that we overcame. Friends like you come into someone's life once in a lifetime. For me, your family is my family, because you always included me as part of your life, and I did the same with you. Our bond of friendship went far beyond, what most people don't have these days, and couldn't possibly understand. I will talk to you now in my dreams and in the silence of my mind, the memories of you will be forever burned in my heart and will never be forgotten. I will sit on my porch and feel the gentle breeze on my face and listen for your voice in hopes you visit me often. I know God has a reason why but he hasn't told me yet, I am sure in time it will all be revealed and one day we will see each other again. I know you and Elden are back together sharing everlasting love and eternity both without pain. Watch over us and keep us safe. Be at peace my friend, I know one day the pain of your passing will fade but you will forever be in my heart and in my mind. I will watch over the family and love them as you loved me, and try to help them get through your passing.
One last thing I just wanted to say, Is Thank you for being my best friend. I love you and will miss you deeply. Rest in Peace, my sweet friend. Say hi to Elden and all the dogs for me. And Say hello to my Dad if you should be so lucky to run into him. Thanks for listening. I love you more.
Sent with love
Colette.
