I have had the amazing opportunity to watch this beautiful little girl grow surrounded by her loving mother, aunts, uncle, and grandparents. She has always been the apple of her family’s eye. Such a special girl with so much personality and sweetness. She will leave an unforgettable mark on everyone who has had the pleasure of meeting her. She is an angel who we were blessed to share this earth with.

From one Mom to another, Brandy, my thoughts and heart goes out to you. No comforting words will ever be enough. But if I could speak for all of us on the outside, we so wish that your little Kodie could have just clung on just long enough for all these changes in the world to get normal again. And she could continue on as a child should be able to. Rest peacefully Kodie.

Brandy, All I can really say is that my heart goes out to you. I believe there are no words that can provide you with the same peace I so hope Kodie has found. My own feelings of confusion and sadness are over whelming, and I am a complete stranger. Brandy, you have allowed us to grieve with you while it would be so easy to close all of us off. You are an amazing mother, who brought into this world an amazing little girl.........who without knowing, made us all stop in our tracks and realize what is really most important in this world....love. My heartfelt sympathy to you today and everyday ......

My sincere sympathies to the family and loved ones of this precious child. I have worked with children for many years and can say their thinking is so innocent and to the moment, not understanding problems can be solved. In a spiritual sense, I feel Kodie is with God, experiencing love and peace beyond our grasp. She touched my heart and I want you know her passing is not in vain. I am a mother of four and I shared her picture and story with my children. She opened the door for conversations often not discussed and through this we grew as a family. Who knows how this may have changed a future decision for my children. There is a saying that God can make miracles out of unspeakable tragedies. I feel she is inspiring so many others in a positive way. At ten years old, she became a teacher in my house, to total strangers. I cannot even comprehend the pain from this loss, she will always be remembered. My prayers are with all of you.
