Not sure what to say?

I was just received a notice from Gonzaga about Corky's death. We used to ride the ST Michael's bus together from Annandale to Gonzaga. We were pretty good friends. We worked at the Hot Shoppes together. I wish I had know he was in San Antonio as I live in Houston and it would have been good to see him. Ed LaVigne Gonzaga '64.

We were close friends at Georgetown for first two years. He always loved telling me how his father helped LBJ become a US Senator by stuffing a ballot box! We had some good times...My thoughts are with all the family...Just found out today through the "Network." Kingston Cole

My father was and always will be my hero. Words cannot describe how much I love, admire and miss him every day. I miss his unwavering love and support, heartfelt encouragement, great listening skills and advice, history lessons and childhood tales ...and even his not so stellar singing and corny jokes. Dad, thank you for being one of the most loving, loyal, kindest, giving, selfless and humble fathers any girl could ever know. I will love you forever and always.

Heaven gained an angel. My heart is so heavy right now and I love and miss you so much. Rest in paradise daddy

Sending our heartfelt condolences to the family of Col. Corcoran. We, at Fraser Place Manila, which was home to him while working in the Philippines only have good memories of a very respectable and kind man. He will always be in our hearts. Sending prayers to the loved ones he has left behind.

My prayers and condolences goes out to you and your family.

Sending healing prayers and comforting hugs. I am very sorry for your loss. May the love of God give the Corcoran's family members peace, comfort, and strength through the days ahead. I hope you feel surrounded by much love. I know the pain the Corcoran's family members are experiencing since my mother was buried the day before Colonel Corcoran passed.

Colonel Corcoran was the best Air Force Colonel I had the pleasure of working for during my 30 years of Air Force service. ...
