<div>On May 8th, the Ayers family experienced an unimaginable loss. Their youngest son Cody Drew Ayers passed away unexpectedly at the age of 17, leaving a deep emptiness in the hearts of everyone who knew him. Cody had a bright future ahead of him - so much to look forward to, so many dreams just beginning to take shape. Losing him so suddenly has left his family in shock, trying to process a pain that words can't fully explain. Cody was one of a kind. He was funny, thoughtful, humble, and down-to-earth. He had a big heart, a bright spirit, and a smile that could lift anyone's day. He was a beloved son, brother, uncle, nephew, grandson, and friend. He means so much to so many people, and the love he gave was unconditional.

<div>In the middle of overwhelming grief, Scott and Aly shoudn't have to worry about money or returning to work. This GoFundMe could help not only with funeral and memorial expenses, it will also allow them to take the time to grieve and to figure out how to exist in this new life without their son. They deserve the chance to mourn their beautiful boy without the added financial strain.
