Remembering Kody Pelly: He loved all and was loved by all He was perfect example of how we should love our fellow man By Harrison Moss Kody had a big heart and a lot of love to give to everyone he came in contact with. Our memories of Kody began when he and our son Matthew played Little League Basketball together and went to school together. When we would see Kody, he would ask how we were and what we had been doing. He always had a smile and a laugh and enjoyed life to the fullest. He loved all and was loved by all. He was a perfect example of how we should love our fellow man. We are so grateful and thankful to the Lord, Bobby and Kim for allowing us the pleasure of loving and knowing Kody. - Harrison Moss and family Above a continuing memory of Kody Pelly, 23, Columbia, KY (1990-2013) 2013-12-20 04:38:16 | Comments | Printable version
