Not sure what to say?

Such a wonderful soul; kind, generous and gifted. A truly exceptional person and my dad's favorite friend. Before I knew him, I heard about him through my family, who admired and loved him so much. After I came to know him, I understood why. A man of grace and class. I will miss him!

I worked for Dr Corey for 5 years and truly enjoyed my time working with him. He was a true gentleman and a brilliant physician and I had the utmost respect for him. I will always remember the twinkle in his eye and his great since of humor. I am truly saddened by the loss of this wonderful man. My condolences to Janice and the family.

Dr. Corey, would walk thru the door, in his hand was a bag with are flu shots, great big smile, are you ready Margaret? Are you first one to get your medicine? Close your mouth, your not going to drink it, Margaret its not going to hurt, not a bit, See, bet you didn't even feel that. His kind hearted eyes and his beautiful smile, I will miss him. Respectfully,

I will remember Uncle Bill always as my example of what a family patriarch is. He always had for me the right answers, and with them he gave me encouragement in my life's path. There is no question that he did this for all who came in contact with him, the man with the right answers. I will miss him more than I can say.
With respect and love,
Ski

You were an amazing man - still working and sending e-mails for your research on Sat. Always caring about others more than yourself! You made a difference in the world and to your family - miss and love you!

Truly an amazing life, lived in all it's fullness and affecting good for so many people. So sad to hear of his passing.

THe twinkle in his eye, the false gruff when entering the examining room "What's wrong with you?" and his generous heart and smile will be remembered.

So wonderful to read about the amazing contributions of my Great Uncle...truly a man with a keen mind and a big heart. He was such a strong presence and role model in our family, his passing is such a loss. To Christmases and Easters past and amazing Ranch Picnics...I will remember you laughing Uncle Bill.

I love you dad! You live on in all of us.
