Mr. Corrigan,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army in Korea. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Mrs. Corrigan, Jeff, Michael and especially Kristin:
Words can’t express how saddened I was by the news of Mr. Corrigan’s passing. He was always such a presence in a room and such a presence in my childhood. Your home was always my second home, and I treasure memories of so many good times – Christmas nights and the "12 Days of Christmas", days at Good Harbor Beach, weekends in North Conway and Wells Beach…You are all in my thoughts. Much love, Karen

Auntie Carole, Jeff, Mike, Kristin, thank you so much for sharing one of your lasts nights at the hospital with my family and Uncle Paul. I feel so blessed to have had the time to do one of his favorite things... a sing along...and to have had the tender moments to let him know how much we loved him and to say our good byes. He will be a huge missing piece in our family puzzle...but we all have each other to lean on. We're here for you for whatever.
Love you guys, Janie

Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you as we remember "Uncle Paul". The greatest memories I have are his laugh and his spirit of celebration..especially with 'Winter Wonderlands'.

To Paul Corrigan's family:
I am so sorry for your loss.
The memories I have of Paul are wonderful.....the good old days of Paul pumping out his laps at the Club's pool.
We was a kind sweet man,
God rest his soul.
