    Cory, I thought about you all the time through out Christmas, how you would wear your silly dirty of Santa hat and make your family their Christmas dinner, and sing your original renditions of holiday classics…. I will always miss you bro.

    I’m so sorry for your loss. I knew Corey for years as my brother’s ever dependable friend. I knew him as a quiet guy, a little self deprecating, easy to talk to. He will be missed.

  • Joan

    I remember Cory as a little guy, then as a bigger guy, until he’s an adult guy. I always had a hug for him and he always had a hug for me. I will miss him.
