Roy and Madeleine,

I'm so sorry for your loss. I met Cory on a few occasions and I know what a wonderful, remarkable young man he was. I remember his energy and enthusiasm when he came into work wanting to see my insect collection and even let my tarantula crawl up his arm. I can still see his wide eyes and excited smile!

I can't imagine the pain and sorrow you feel. There is no pain like that of the loss of a child, especially one as special and loving as Cory.

Again, I am so sorry for your loss and want you to know that if there is anything my wife and I can do for you, please let me know. We are here for you.

Roy, Madeline and extended family Dreiling,

We can't tell you how saddened our family (Donald, Diane, Brian, Wayne and Garrett) was to hear the news about Cory and his friend.

We loved being your neighbor when you lived in Willow Glen. And we were thankful to have you, Roy, serve on The Board for the 7 Villages of Cherry Hills. Diane, the long-time manager of the subdivision, loved the way you got involved and helped to make the community we live in a special place to live.

We remember watching the boys growing up and mostly Cory who used to ride his bike around and would come by our house and stop and talk with Don many, many times. Don says that he will cherish those moments forever.

Don once heard, on Oprah, a long time ago something that may provide some comfort to Roy, Madeline and the family. It was by Dr. Gary Zukav and went like this: "Nowhere is it written how long life will be. It could be a day, a week, a month, a year, 10 years or 100 years. What is important to remember is that precious window of time' that this special person was with us here on this good earth. Remembering what we shared then will be with us forever." God bless the Dreiling family. RIP Cory. We loved you then and will till the end of time.

Cory was an amazing person I have ever met in my entire life. When I first met Cory we were at the st.Clair Dance at the St.Claire church right next door to my house. Cory and I one day finally talked and then at the dance we started dancing and having fun. There are so many things that Cory could do for anyone if you needed him too. I remember one day I asked Cory if he could come get me from where him and I both worked which was at Six Flags St.louis. When Cory did that he asked one day "hey do you wanna go bowling and hangout?" I told him yea I would love to hangout with you . So we did and we invited kristie and Josh to come and join us that was a great time we had. I'm really going to miss seeing Cory's bright smiling face. He's a sweetheart and a wonderful person who people should get to know. My prayers go out to him and his family. I love you Cory Andrew Dreiling may you R.I.P❤
