Perhaps it is a cliche, but it doesn't surprise me that Corey's heart gave out on him...he shared it with too many of us and left none to himself. What more proof does one need than all the thoughts and prayers expressed on these pages. We'll never forget you.

Corey was one of the few people you couldn't say a bad word about. He was always there with a smile, a joke and open arms. I lost touch with Corey when he moved but I truly feel blessed to have had him in my life for the short period I did. He was a truly wonderful man and will be very missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Corey was a great friend to us a number of years ago when he was a bartender at Joe's. When he walked into the restaurant he was always good for a smile and a joke. To say the least, Corey made our days more enjoyable. We are very saddened to hear of his passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife and family.

When you're feeling bad in the future, get in touch with me and I'll be there in a second for anything. My sincere feelings are with the whole family. Although, I haven't seen Scott for a while and have never met Danny, I am soooo sad for everyone. I will never stop thinking about this. My heart goes out to all of you.
Love,

My thoughts and prayers are with the Demond, and Davidson families and especially Steph. Corey had a larger than life personality and the world is certainly a lesser place now that he is gone. May you find comfort in the fact that his memory leaves a smile on the faces of those that knew him.

God be with everyone of you at this very sad time. Our hearts hurt with yours. He brought such happiness to my niece Stephanie and together they gave "love" and "marriage" a new chapter for all of us to look at. All the things in the Bible that God says love is they made their goal...... and it worked. It was just all too short a time. I know the place in Stephanie's heart that Cory held with always be there. And we will look forward to meeting their little one in the spring. With love, respect and prayer for each one of you.
