My sympathy for your loss. Many great memories of growing up surround my friendship with the Corry Family. From the trips to Silver Lake, Joslin Street Pool to just hangin in the neighborhood, all were very good times thanks to Mrs. Corry. I know your mom joins those that we have lost in a better place.. but we'll miss her here.
