Corey your presence was always a blessing and will truly be missed beyond measure. You were not just family by marriage but by spirit and connection. Watch over ALL your family Corey from that high throne you sit in now. R.I.P Corey
My utmost sincerest condolences to Corey’s family and friends. In the short time that we were afforded with Corey, I could tell how genuine he was and such a respectful young man. He was a friend of my son and came to my home a few times. He was always so kind whenever he was here, thanked me for letting him stay and eat with our family. No parent should have to bury their child and your loss hits close to my heart. You are all in my prayers.
We are saddened to learn about your family loss.
Continue to rely on God and know that he hears your prayers. Truly sorry for your loss.
