I remember Kay in the late 50's I used to go visit her on Dix St. in Dorchester with her 4 little boys. Her and Phil were such a handsome couple. Im so sorry for your loss. Love Irene Houten

To all the Corbos,
Our sincerest condolences on your mother's passing. She was always so full of life and happiness. I remember her politely trying to turn down an offer to sit in the crowded church at Marykate's confirmation and only accepting the seat with reluctance. So strong and vibrant in her 80s. And we will always remember her kindness to Kiki when she spent time with Nikki at her beach. It was amazing to see how many people came to offer their condolences to your family at her wake; this is a testament to the legacy she and your father built together. I hope all the wonderful memories you have of her will give you some comfort and strength as you mourn her passing. She was a special lady. The Horgan Family

Phil Sr, Kathy, Cousin AnnMarie & the whole Corbo Clan,
We were so sorry to hear about your loss. She was a great Lady with so much spunk. My Mom and Dad (Owen & Ginny) had great times with her (and of, course you Phil). Rob and I always enjoyed our visiting with her in Marco.
I think it was only two years ago when we walked Resident's beach and although I was 35 years younger and almost a foot taller, I struggled to keep her pace. She was so full of life and energetic.
She will surely be missed.
We are sorry we could not be there for the services but extend our deepest sympathies,

To the Corbo Family, I am so sorry for your suddent loss of your mom. Try to remember the memories and times you all had together and hopefully will bring you some comfort. Her smile, a knowing look, a private joke, a special touch and the love you all gave to her as her sons and daughters and of course giving her all those wonderful grandchilden. If there is any comfort in this, is to know that she is now with her sisters laughing possibly having a "whiskey and water" . The comfort you all have now is knowing that she was a great wife, mom, grandmother, aunt and friend to all.
All My Love,
Cuz Mary

Dear Corbo Family:
I am very saddened to hear of Mrs.C's passing.
She ALWAYS greeted me from the house deck with warm, loving words and a beautiful smile.

I'm a cousin of Kay's, Julie (Long) Bender. My mother was a Denehy and first cousin to her mother. We grew up in Dorchester and attended Dorchester High School for Girls. Peg is buried near my brother, Jim, in the National Cemetery. I pass her grave on my way to visit him at the top of the hill. Always say a prayer for all of the family. My cousin, Marie, and I are all that's left of the Denehy clan. My sympathies.
