My dear Corbitt Family, you know how much I loved my Aunt Peggy and time spent with each of you over the years I will always have fond memories of her. Please know that our family is in prayer for you as you deal with the loss of her presence on earth. At the same time, we can celebrate her "homegoing" to be with her Lord.
“Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. And you know the way to where I am going.” John 14:1-4 NLT

I am so sorry for the loss of your dear loved one. It's comforting to know that God cares for all of us. The Bible gives us hope that one day we can see our loved ones again. On behalf of all mankind Jesus surrendered his soul. John 15:13 says “No one has love greater than this, that someone should surrender his soul on behalf of his friends.” Truly I am sorry to hear of the loss of your dear loved one and I hope these few words will bring you comfort and hope.

Allison and Corbitt Family,
I have very fond memories of your mother as a young girl growing up in the neighborhood. Even as I got older and walking the block with my dogs visiting from college or with my children after I got married- I would pass by her house with those memories in mind. I will keep you and your entire family in my prayers and condolences.

Dear Eddie and the three girls,
As I was growing up, you were part of my life. I think back of the good times we had and how Eddie has taught me how to grow up. The Corbitts were part of my life. The three girls were like sisters to me.Three weeks ago I stopped by to see ya'll and I met one of the girls, we both looked at each other thinking who was the other person, I found out it was one of the daughters,we talked for some time then. Eddie came outside and we talked for a few minutes and brought back memories, about all of us.Cindy I remember you trying to teach a left footed man how to dance, got to say you tried your best. Still at the age of 53 I still dont dance much. Your Mom will be missed by a lot of people for she was a good person and a very kind person too. You all know that you will be in my prayers and if you all wish to ever call me I do believe Angie has my phone number. Love to each and every one of you during this time of sorry and saddness.
