I'm not someone who has a hard time with words, but the loss of my cuzz has brought me there. The pain and sadness that SO MANY people feel as a result of this tragic loss is beyond words.

Corey, your star still shines brightly, and I have no doubt that whatever good awaits us on the other side, you are basking in right now.

R.I.P my man - you will be missed more than you will ever know.

Aunty Judith: I will save my words for when I see you.

Judy and Steven,
Words cannot describe my feelings of sorrow and sadness of this senseless loss. I was the high school counselor for both of you, as well as, Corey. Each of you are very special to me. I remember how Cory inherited and displayed the same nice, considerate and respectful demeanor that the two of you pocess. Cory use to visit my office very often just to say hello and to get into my cookie jar. Corey was a very determined young man with a great zest for life, happiness and prosperity. When I think of Corey, I can only think of the joy that he spread in his environment. I pray to God to give you strength and comfort.

God be with you,
Revonnie Haynes

There are many of us who walk this path with you and we are always near if you ever need. During this time hold each other close and we will hold you in our prayers.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

My prayers are with you and your family. God Bless

I was deeply saddened when I learned of Corey's sudden passing. Even though its been so long since I've seen him, I have a hard time believing that this bright, lovable kid I remember playing with at Mrs Dunn's house is no longer here. I send my condolences to the Forrest/Dunn family in this extremely difficult time. I will continue to pray that God gives you the strength for the days ahead. God bless you and I love you all...
