pictures / Jim Hudson (grandpa)
These pictures we took of David Cody were meant for him to show his kids pictures of him when he was growing up not to put on his memory site only after 12 years of life. Life is to short to play stupid games like the choking game. David Cody like a lot of other kids played this game just to see if it was as much fun as they had been told. Schools are letting kids teach kids how to kill them selfs and we just turn our heads and look the other way even tho we know it's happening. How can we stop this? If David Cody new that he could die from playing this game he would have been to afraid to try it. These pictures are all I have left of David Cody no hugs at bed time no I love you grandpa no more winks and NO MORE SMILES!!!!!!!! Those kids that tough my grandson how to play THE CHOKING GAME took all that away from me and I WILL NEVER FOR GIVE THEM FOR THAT AS LONG AS I LIVE!!!!! Yes everyday I look at these pictures and everyday I have my morning coffee with David Cody and my brother George. I can feel them with me but just to be able to see them would be great. George tells me not to smoke and Dave tells me to take good care of grandma. David Cody loves his grandma and if he new that the choking game would kill him his love for grandma would have stopped him. If you are a kid and doing stupid unsafe stuff like drugs or games that could kill thank about the people you are hurting. Keep David Codys memory alive by not doing drugs or playing the choking game. Close

The D.C.H.foundation  / Jim Hudson (grandpa)
Our goal is to stop kids at school and on the internet from teaching kids how to play THE CHOKING GAME. You can help and it won't cost you nothing but time. #1 When you mail a letter write on the outside: Stop the choking game. www.gaspinfo.com #2 Write letters to your Representatives school boards churches anybody that deals with kids. #3 Write to the T.V. networks to try and get them to post warnings about the choking game. #4 Talk to all your friends and relatives about the choking game when ever you get together. You talk about work ball games and other things so try keep the the choking game fresh in their minds. #5 Lets try to get school to change their policies about suspending kids from school. Kids left home alone are more likely to try the choking game. Close

2nd angel year.  / Ajia Graham (nevermet friend )

it's yur second angel year dave. its must be real fun up there huh? wow the pain that yur family has must be unbareable. i know it would for me. although i never knew you i still hurts alittle to know that you died from this game. it kinda tears me apart. i know the old saying goes that it takes time for a wound to heal. but this type of wound can't ever be heal nor the gap in our hearts cant ever be filled. it really sucks to see yur family go through some like this. i keep them in my prayers. and to be honest sometimes i pray for yall more than i pray for myself. i only hope for the best and that God will rain blessings. R.I.P. dave.

                                    p.s. can you tell God that i asked for his forgiveness ^_^" i did something very..................bad 0o0'. lol

Letter from David Cody  / Jim Hudson (grandpa)
If David Cody could write me a letter this is what he'd say. Dear grandpa I done a bad thing on that Sunday two years ago and I'm very sorry but I didn't mean to die. Some kids had showed me how to play THE CHOKING GAME but they didn't tell me it could kill me. I just wanted to see what would happen. I tied my karate belt around my neck and then I heard Hannah in the hall and I tried to untie the belt but I tripped and then I passed out. The next thing that happen was I was setting on the bed and watching my sisters trying to undo the belt the my dad came in and I watched him crying and trying with all his heart to save me and then the bus to CAMP HEAVEN came and I got on. Once you on the bus you can't get off until you reach HEAVEN'S gate. Dad tried so heard to save me but I was to far away to turn back. I was on the bus to CAMP HEAVEN and I was very afraid I never did like the dark. When I got to CAMP HEAVEN my great aunt Margie was there to met me. She took me by the hand and we skipped clouds into CAMP HEAVEN. That was fun I might like this place. I met all my kin folks up here and kids that played that stupid CHOKING GAME. Grandpa there are so many kids up here that played it just to see why kids thought it was so much fun and they to didn't know you could die. Please keep telling kids not to play THE CHOKING GAME.

almost time  / Ajia Graham (nevermet friend )
it's almost time for your second angel year. wow aint 2009 goin by fast. on facebook your granpa has clubs and groups about awaring kids bout the choking game. i sometimes get angry wen i tell ppl bout it and they just ignore me. it really p'os me. and idiotic kids are still putting this stupid game on youtube and it really aggitates me..........a lot. but it's really just on them if they be stupid enough to keep playin. *sigh* i'm not gonna get all mad about it. all i can do is pray and let the good Lord have His way. and just remember that the devil is a lie and that he'll try to bring you down as low as dirt can go. but you have to stay strong and u have to keep your faith. i just know this game's comin to an ending. i just know it.

Daddy has gone broke trying to spread the word and I myself  have no longer the fund's to continue to buy the tv interview disc the gasp disc all the materials i need when i go to the schools and teach with the champs programs with the sheriffs depts the drug court and the substance abuse classes.

I pray God will reach down and touch your hearts and pray you all can help us keep this thing going  if we let it go another angel will go to camp heaven and let's face it id rather hold their precious hands here then try to remember how their little hands felt.

Love Is forever  / Tina Nevling (Aunt)

I try to find the word's thru the tear's that are falling. My precious Brother David Becky and those Beautiful girl's How heavy I know your heart's have to be still.And Daddy i know how your heart is breaking all over again and again. I went to the river and I did nt realize how bad it was going to hurt as if it were yesterday. sept 24th is coming up quickly yet the pain the loss the hurt i feel in my heart not only for the love I shared with David Cody but the love i have for you and the fact I know how you are hurting. It seemed just as I was about to completely loose all my senses I felt a sweet brush come over me like the a gentle breeze out of no where not a tree was moving not one leaf it was then I felt a peace in my mind i imagined the laughter the smile it was as if DAvid Cody himself touched me to let me know he was ok and for me not to cry. I will never forget that moment for as long as i live. I believe in Angels and I know our angel took the tears wiped them away and made me smile at the memory of him on that rock arms stretched out like he was king of the mountain. he was that day and always will be. I love you DAvid adn Becky alyssia hannah and Daddy . mom My brother Jimmy Dorthy Jesse and Amy. I pray God will give you the strength As the anniversary comes up of the loss of our precious DAvid Cody.

We are going to go to the river and light candles in his honor. I am always here DAvid sis will never not be my shoulders are wide my heart isnt to full that i cannot carry some of the hurt My hands may be callused but they are tender and always here to hold. I love you.

Love forever Your Sister Tina

RE: Ernie Sapp  / Tina Nevling (aunt)

Mr.

Sapp First of all Daddy I am sorry but when I read this my blood boiled over and as you know if any one comes against anyone in the family I will speak my mind .

Ernie. #1 you have no clue who most of the people are thatlight the candles or write in this memorial site You had no right to attack my brother David and Becky. My Brother David I a fire fighter emt. out saving lives everyday!!!!!!! he as well has 2 other children he is trying to stay strong for who grieve as well over their brother. how dare you insinuate they dont care. As for me I am his aunt in blueridge ga little do you know I have done 2 tv interviews and I  was able to incorporate the choking game into the champs program how did i do this ? by going to schools county officials passing out information to the drug court systems. so before you say another which in which i hope would only be an apology you sit and think since finding this out what have you done to aid in spreading the dangers of this game in your community ? have you gone out and tried to talk to the county officials police principals? I didnt think so.you owe my brother an apology and becky as well you were cruel and callious. do not visit this site if your heart isnt right.

know your fact's before you open your mouth .

Tina Nevling David Codys aunt!!!!!

To young to die  / Ernie Sapp (none)
I watched Dr. G. on the health channel last night Aug 31 2009. It's sad I don't see any more family members on this site. Is the grandfather the only one that cared about this young man. Every other post is the grandfather where is the mother or the father? I now everyone has their way of dealing with something so sad but don't you thank the grandfather hurts too? When you come to this site you are showing respect and love for the departed. I cried all the way through Dr. G. and now I cry looking at this site. He looks like such a happy young man why he would play such a game as the choking game sorry I can't do this Close

thank you  / Angie J. (saw dr g medical examiner )
Thank you for bringing this to light. I used to play this same game 25 YEARS AGO!!!! (I am now 37) I never knew as a child you could die from this! We just thought it was some kind of "magical" trick and it felt cool to pass out and then wake up not knowing what happened. I will definitely talk to my teen about this and explain the dangers!!  Cody was so blessed to have such a loving family- the grandfather was especially touching. Close

My song to you  / Preston Saylor (unknown friend (friend of Jesse) )

There is an angel who sits in Heaven

He knows how much he is missed

He knows how much he is loved

As loved ones sit here and cry

Hoping that time will just pass by

We all know that you are saying "I am fine go on with life."

We never know what we have till its gone

We never know how much we have lost till we cant hold it anymore

Yet you are still here cause you are in our hearts forevermore

Yeah...this is my lullabye

How much can we ask for before we are satisfied?

Yet we ask for so much

But if God would only grant us one wish

All we would ask for is to have you back

Your love is enough to satisfy us

We never know what we have till its gone

We never know how much we have lost till we cant hold it anymore

Yet you are still here cause you are in our hearts forevermore

Yeah...this is my lullabye

Yeah...this is my lullabye

This is my lullabye

David Cody when my sister in law called me when she was dating Jesse she told me your story and my heart dropped  that night on stage I dedicated my song For All Time to you and I cryed while singing it. Now thanks to the help of Jesse I have fully completed this song just for you. Here is your lullabye. Enjoy. See you in Heaven.

I needed a good cry  / Barbra Mote (just a friend )
To the person that wrote this letter I know it must be hard to thank of David being some where other than Camp Heaven. When I lost my folks I new they were in Heaven. God gave me something to be leave in and now they want us not to be leave there is a GOD or a Heaven. I want you to know no matter what they say Camp Heaven will never close and David and all the other kids there will be ok. My husband died for our country so that we could have freedom and now the same country is trying to take away what he and our four fathers fought for. David Cody seems to be the kind of boy that would have fought for our country too but if we don't have anything to be leave in anymore then nobody is going to want to fight for this country. Take away God and you take away our right to life. I have been reading about the choking game and thats the worst thing I've ever heard of. So many kids have died playing that game. I can see why David would be so concerned about where all the kids will go if there is no Camp Heaven. Why would kids play this game? Even if it did get you high I don't see the fun in it. A roller coaster ride would be more. I don't have kids but I we tell all that I know not to play this game. I'm sorry Close

Letter from David Cody  / Jim Hudson (grandpa)
Dear Grandpa I need your help again. They are talking about closing CAMP HEAVEN. People are turning ageist GOD taking GOD off money and not having prayer at ball games in school at any sports. GOD feels people don't need him any more. Grandpa you always tought us that if we be leave in someone or something then it is real. GOD has been around since the beginning of time how can people stop be leaving just because the goverment says we should not be leave. When people are in trouble the first thing they say is "OH MY GOD". Even people who don't be leave calls on GOD in time of need. Grandpa without GOD there won't be no CAMP HEAVEN there won't be an old folks HEAVEN. That means good people and bad people will go to HELL. ST. Peter has been at the gate since CAMP HEAVEN first opened up whats he gonna do? St.MATTHEWMARKLUCKJOHNJEREMIAHand SAMUEL what are they going to do if there is no HEAVEN where will they go? Please tell the kids that play THE CHOKING GAME and takes drugs that pretty soon HEAVEN won't be here so if they die they will go to the other place. Please tell everyone they have to be leave or there won't be any place for us kids to go. Close

CAMP HEAVEN  / Jim Hudson (grandpa)
LETTER FROM CAMP HEAVEN Dear parents and grandparents As of AUGUST 01 2009 CAMP HEAVEN will be closing! To many kids are still playing the deadly games like the choking game. There is no more room for kids at CAMP HEAVEN so if you play and die you will go to the other place. Parents and grandparents if you have a child playing the choking game or know of a child that is playing the choking game TELL THEM TO STOP AT ONCE! Close

How big is CAMP HEAVEN???  / Jim Hudson (grandpa)
David Cody are you keeping your room clean?? I didn't think so. I've been waiting for you to write or call but I know you having to much fun skipping clouds and stuff. I sure hope CAMP HEAVEN is a big place because kids are still finding ways to kill them selfs. When you got parents that play the choking game with their kids then we really do have a problem. You use to get so mad when your friends parents would treat the kid bad. Well you would really really be mad to see a father teaching his kid how to die!!! I met such a man today. Don't know if he was pulling my leg or not but he sure got me up set. Uncle Bill has a new baby girl her name is LAUREN MARIE ALCOCK born Juli 18th 2009 7lbs 12 oz. She is a cute little thing. OK it's nap time I talk to you later OK? Close

thank you  / Ajia Graham (nevermet friend )

Mr. Hudson, i thank you so much for appreciating all i have done. many other ppl would've tookin me forgranted but you didn't. it really puts a smile on my face. i've made a new facebook account cuz my old one didn't work. my new email address is sisters353@gmail.com and the one i still use is ajia353@gmail.com. i'll make sure of it that i tell my friends that you said thanks and how much this makes you so proud.

last week, Michael Jackson, The King of Pop music and dance (basically in my opinion the king of the music world and dance) died on Thursday, June 25, 2009, at 2:26pm. the point of me puting this up is because just like his death shocked me, Dave's death shocked me. just like he was always and forever will be my inspiration, Dave will always be my inspiration too. just like Michael's death was so tragic and sudden, Dave's death was just the same. just like Michael Jackson is a music icon, Dave is an icon to not play this DEALDY CHOKING GAME. and just like Micheal will always be in my heart, dave will always be in my heart as well.

Dave and Michael had a lot in common up there. i'll always love them both as a close friend to me, even though i never met them and they and their families will always be in my prayers. may they both rest in peace.
