Please accept my deepest sympathy on the passing of your Dad. Mike was such a great guy and so much fun to be around. There are so many fond memories of all the fun times we had together at Carolina Beach. We're changed now - not because he left us but because he touched us.

Please accept our sincere condolences. Debbie and I haven't seen Mike since our wedding, but we thought of him often. His laugh was always contagious. We have lost a great and dear friend.

Mike and I were friends and coworkers for many years, and shared many great times together. God bless his soul. I know he is with God in heaven, probably making everyone laugh.

I am so sorry to hear about Mr. Corcoan. I have so many fond memories of Mr. Corcoran on Meadowlark Rd. His loud colorful pants that we could see coming down the street. Heating the pool with a wood stove. Many more. I hope that all of his family will take comfort in happy memories. God Bless

Will always remember the great times Patrick and I had with his dad. Savannah, the Zoo, Busch Gardens, dancing at Rosar's the weekend Jamie graduated, and Happy Hour at Winter's Run, to name just a few.
I know he's in a better place, now, but he will be missed by all of us who knew him here.

I feel fortunate to have such fond memories of Mr C.
