Hey Corey I know that I should have been left something in this guest book. Apart of me didn't want to believe that you are gone another part of me didn't and still don't want to accept it. We all grieve different. I pray a lot about missing you God has helped me with the pain. I know that you are in a much better place and you are looking down on all of us with that beautiful smile of yours! I think about all of the times that we shared together and I can smile. I still have all of the text messages that we sent to one another even though it's sometimes hard for me to look through them. The first couple of months I would look at my phone waiting for your call or text I took loosing you real hard. I know that we will see each other again one day. I just wish that you was still here. I try not to dwell on what happened and why because I know that God has plans for you. I look at the notes that I took when I would send you scriputres from the Bible and get comfort. I miss that memory most of all. I'm Glad that I got to tell you how I felt about you and I'm also Glad that you was able to do the same. I wish that we had more times to say I LOVE YOU.
Love You Always

Just wanted to stop in to say hi Baby Cakes! I've been absolutely miserable without you :-(
Can you imagine how cold the condo has been without you? (smile) I've tried a million ways to warm it up, but it just isn't happening! Not even with the heat on 100 degrees... LOL

Miss you with all my heart!

January 22, 2008

Hi Corey!
As I look back at the past month, it is still very hard to fathom the idea of you being gone. The days have gone by so slowly, but also so quickly!! I know that you are in a better place but you are missed SOOOO much by everyone. Keep looking down upon us to help us travel this long hard road that we call life.. It will never get easy for us to deal with loosing you, all we can do is our best to make you proud so that you will show Gods angels that beautiful smile that we miss!

Love you soo much!

January 22, 2008

She wants her DADDY is what she tells me! You will forever be in my heart and I just feel a empty void in my life right now, but as the days pass by and the phone calls arent from you reality sits in and I just cant understand why somebody would take you from us. I know your with lil Jeff and aunt Gerald! You will always be my baby and there will never be another like you!!!!!!!!!! 4 Real COREY yeah 4 Real.

Tawanna Hunter

My deepest sympathy to Rah & her Family as well as the Jones & Robinson Family. Words can never express the sorrow that all loved ones are feeling, but, I pray that god grants you the serenity that is needed to help you through these difficult times. I pray that he grants you the strength to help comfort you for as long as its needed. God Bless All of you.

Corey,
This is how I see it,

God looked around his Garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon his earth and saw your loving face.
God knew that you were tired,
He knew there was no cure
so he wrapped his arms around you,
and whispered, "Come to me".
You didn't deserve what you went through, so God gave you rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best!
And when I saw you sleeping,
so peaceful and pain free
I could not wish you back to us,
to suffer that again.
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you on the day God called you home!

Rest in Peace Baby Cakes!

"COREY IN THE HOUSE", "BOOB" I don't know what to call you, Los gave you so many names! We both miss you a whole lot and he still ask me so many questions about you. I never told you thanks for taking him to school those mornings, playing play station and losing, even the arguments between you too,(LOL) they will always be remember. The last time I saw you at Denny's I will never forget that big smile you gave me,that smile and those words is what I will always cherish. I'm so sorry you had to go! Would you do me and Los a favor and tell his dad we said Hi, I know yall up there chillen together talking about LOS! We miss you so much, I just can't stop talking to you, but I guess I will for now. I will just come back and talk more at a later date. By the way, the Patriots are still winning!

Corey, I just want to say that you will be truly miss by your love ones. You had a kind heart and I could see that. I always admired you and Taylor's friendship. The bond that you two shared is forever unbreakable. Taylor was always proud of the man you become in this life. As the days go by and as I see him struggling to cope with his bestfriend/lil brother/road dog not being here anymore in the flesh,he knows that you will be by his side forever. I know what a joy you are in his life and the love that he have for you makes me love you too. You were indeed as real as they come to being a true friend to him. I will forever be grateful to you. Although you are with GOD now, just know that you will never be forgotten.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Delania Ware

December 27, 2007

Cousin,I Love you, I love you, I love you and I will miss you, dearly. More than words can ever say, you will forever be in my heart. I pray the Lord will receive you with open arms and know that I will see you again.
Loving you always, Delania

Psalms 34:8
"Oh taste and see that the LORD is good, blessed is the man who trust in Him."

emanuel taylor

December 27, 2007

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
