CJ & I were more than sisters. We were the 2 middle children, with an older brother(an only son) and a much younger baby sister.We are the middle children.
We were friends, buddies, partners in crime and senior adventurers from chopping a chunk of old concrete to fill a persistent hole in her driveway at Gravel Lake, to capturing and releasing a very frightened & frightening bat in the family room of my house, to our Thelma & Louise (with a happy ending) road trip to Washington...

Among the many thoughtful things Aunt Corky did was send greeting cards to commemorate special occasions. Growing up, we kids (and MANY others, I'm sure) always received birthday cards from her. That was a LOT of cards, because there were a LOT of us nieces and nephews. How thrilling it was to received our own piece of mail on our special day! We're going to miss you so much....especially up at the lake. With much love....

I remember how Les would light up talking about his Mom. Their connection is amazing and will continue in their hearts. Treasure those memories. She is now your beautiful angel. Prayers are sent to you and your family. God Bless!

Christine Macniak Donnelly: Yesterday was hard...as a swarm of memories came my way as I went to say my good-byes to Corrine Jones. She had touched so many lives and so many of us referred to her as "Ma"
We were all there....some I haven't seen since her son's wake{Bobby} some new friends that I have met through Facebook.
I pray for God to wrap his loving arms around you and the family in the next few days to get through this. She will not be forgotten...
