Aminata Sandra Calhoun on February 22, 2021 WURD RADIO is living life likes it’s GOLDEN! William Cody Anderson, I revere and hold him as a solid rock in my heart, soul and mind. It was William Cody Anderson that provided me the opportunity to make my first sojourn to Africa, August, 1996. To the Anderson family, I extend warm and deeply sincere condolences. William Cody Anderson is grossly missed. It is a struggle listening to WURD RADIO without the voice Father and Shepherd W. Cody Anderson. Submitted with a Heavy Heart!

Edward Jake Johnson on February 23, 2021 We thank God for Cody Anderson. He put a brother here on earth that helped multitudes of people. I can see him waving goodbye and telling us that everything will be alright, “I’ll take care of it.” He was always taking care of things. He made a difference in people’s lives on and off the radio .

Hattie (Hotep) Northern on February 23, 2021 My buddy, my friend, William Cody Anderson. What a great loss of a gentle giant, a man’s man, a dignified man, a loving husband, a noble roll model for his children, a humble individual for all he has done for those who crossed his path in need of some kind of help and/or assistance. Cody, I miss you already and I will for a long time, along with everyone else. You have been a blessing to so, so many people and definitely a blessing to me. Thank you for the Volunteers for Change group and all the other projects that I have had the fortune to be a part of with Dr. Ijoy and others. Cody, I will miss your wisdom, your anecdotes, your political views, and all, with Vikki, Dr. Burton, and the listeners on Saturday mornings on WURD’S Electric Magazine, as well as your other programs on WURD. I, along with many others, prayed so hard for your recovery, but God said, sorry earthlings, it is time for this Angel to come home. So I must say Good by Cody–my buddy, my friend. Reply
Trudi Williams on February 24, 2021 Saturday mornings, Electric Magazine, Cody and Vikki …..Cody’s voice will be missed.as he recognized the ancestors who are welcoming him. He has been a true TREASURE to all who listened to WURD. Such a giant who was filled with wisdom, character, and love. Sleep on Cody you will be remembered by many. Reply
Lorene Bronner on February 25, 2021 My sincerest condolences are extended to Cody Anderson’s immediate family and his extended WURD family of which I became a member in 2019. My interview with Vikki and Cody on Saturday, March 30, 2019 while I was in New Orleans will remain in my heart as special and unforgettable. Cody said something funny that made me laugh. Vikki encouraged me to become a member of the station and I started listening to radio again and was hooked on it. Of course, I had heard much about Cody but had not officially met him. My membership gave me the opportunity to attend the WURD Christmas Party at the Cambria Hotel in downtown, Philadelphia in December 2019 and I was treated like family. I found Vikki and introduced myself, she in turn introduced me to Cody and he said something funny again that made me laugh. I will continue to listen to WURD and support the station always remembering Cody and saying his name as he did every Saturday morning to his family and the WURD family so they will remain in our hearts and live on. Cody was a gifted multitalented man, who loved his family and humanity, we will miss him, but if we pick up the mantle and continue in his footsteps, all that he did will not be in vain. May he rest in peace with our ancestors. Lorene Bronner Reply
