Again,I'm sorry to hear.
Take care,

I was sorry to hear about Corey's passing this week. I only knew Corey from my few appointments at Sizzle, but felt a deep sense of loss when I heard the news. So I can only offer my condolences to the family during this difficult and challenging time. No one can truly understand the depth of your sorrow.

May you somehow find the peace of God which surpasses all understanding during this difficult time. Allow Him to be your source of comfort and the shoulder for your grief.

Prayers and Love for all of you,

To Corey's family and friends, please accept my condolences.

Going to Sizzle Marine will not seem the same without Corey. Like so many others, he was always there to greet me by name, ask about my family and go out of his way to help.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

To Corey's family and friends - I only knew Corey from dealing with him at Sizzle Marine. He was always so friendly and helpful, and went above and beyond to help me out (backing up and hooking/unhooking our trailer to our truck since I'm not good at it!) Always took the extra time even when I knew he was very busy. I will miss his smiling face, and my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

To the Rutherford and Miller families and friends;

Our sincerest condolences to all of you during this difficult time. Corey was always fun to talk with on the phone when I'd call Sizzle. I remember him from many years ago. Jett appreciated Corey teaching him about how the family business was run. We are saddened at this time and we are keeping all of you in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless, and RIP, Corey.
