CHARLES EDWARD CORLEY

I served under Captain Corley at his last command. I had the extreme pleasure of having him personally hand me my Honorable Discharge on the same day he retired. He was the very definition of the word "Gentleman". I was proud to serve under him.

Dearest Myra,
Drew and I just learned of Charle's passing. We are so sorry to hear this news. We will always have such sweet memories of him and our many Florida memories too! We love you and will be praying for you.

Dear Al, Tina, and all of the Corley Family --
We are deeply saddened to hear of your father's passing, and extend our sincere condolences. May the Lord be with you all during this difficult time. And may you find peace and comfort in your memories of him as you celebrate his wonderful life. We are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,

I ONLY SPOKE WITH MR. CORLEY ON THE TELEPHONE WHEN HE CALLED, BUT HE SOUNDED SO KIND AND YOU, HIS FAMILY ARE ON MY MIND AND IN MY PRAYERS,

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

May Gods merciful light always shine on you and your family. May his many blessings be bestowed on you and your family. With deepest sympathy your Friend and Brother

God will definitely show you the way to smiling again. I know this experience will change you forever. Just remember all the good times you shared with your father and all the love he gave you throughout the years. He is not gone. He will live in your heart forever. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your Family, in this time of need.

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. If there is anything that I can do, please do not hesitate to call me.

Though I only knew Mr. Corely for a short time, his smile, strength, and courage will remain with me forever. May the love of your friends and family carry you through your grief. My prayers are with you.
