Thank YOU for that. Thank YOU so much. "
The podcast host then declared she will miss Kerdiles' "sweet smile and getting to see your heart on full display."

Concluding the heartbreaking tribute, Chrisley wrote, "Oh gosh… what I wouldn’t do to hear an, “I LOVE YOU KID” right about now. Gosh! I miss you… this isn’t fair"!
