Corey Mull Obituary
Memories and Condolences
for Corey Mull
Joel Parker
February 16, 2011
To the Mull family, my heart goes out to you. I am truly sad that I will not be able to share time more with this amazing person. Corey was a dear friend to me in the time we spent together here in China and he will be deeply missed. He was always there to help someone, even if all they needed was a laugh to brighten the day. He was a motivation in my life, reminding me that we can all achieve our goals in life with a bit of effort and a smile. I very much enjoyed spending time with him hanging out in 308, eating La Mien and watching him achieve his dreams with his bakery in Shanghai. Corey was an example of a good person and its a shame to see him gone so soon.
Although my tears are shed for him now, he leaves behind some of the fondest memories that will make me smile for the rest of my life.
Corey, I miss you bro. I wish we had more time. But it's all good man I'll see you again for sure.

Corey was an amazing friend who helped me through some tough times. I wanted to be there to help him back, but time ran out on us.
I'll never forget his smile or his cooking, his sincerity and our love for the same music.
Thank you god for giving us the time we had with Corey. May he rest now in peace.

What can I say about Corey that can help ease the pain the family is feeling over this great lose? Corey wasso full of life and he could always make anyone who came in contact with him laugh. He was always smilling. I never saw him mad or upsst. When we frist found out he was sick he told Matt and I that he had a clot in his brain and that it can be easly fixed. When we found out how serious it was and that it wasn't a clot we asked him why he didn't tell us, he said he didn't want us to worry about him. Even through his pain he didn't want anyone worrying about him. He was a great brother, son, cousin, nephew, grandson, and friend. He will be greatly missed. We love you Corey and we'll see you some day.

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Casey and your family in this time of grief. May memories bring your family comfort. I met Corey while working at Sam's Club. He always greeted me with a big smile. I enjoyed his sense of humor. We kept in touch on-line. I looked forward to hearing about his adventures on the other side of the world...now he is on the greatest adventure of all. I will miss him greatly.

To Casey and the entire Mull family...I was a co-worker and friend of Corey. Not a day went by when he was not making me laugh. He was always that ray of light that you could depend on, even through the darkest of days. He will be deeply missed.

My most sincere condolences to the Mull family on their loss. Cory was a great friend, full of joy and adventure. I was privileged to live and work with Cory in Yangzhou. Cory carried his joyful spirit with him wherever he went enriching the lives of his students, friends and colleagues. I know that my life is better having known him, and I will treasure his memory.

Dear Mull Family,
I'm so sorry to hear the news; I'd talked to Corey not too long ago, and it seems... unfair to realise that he's gone now. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
I taught with Corey in China; he was the first of the foreign teachers I met when I arrived, and he was consequently the first to show me the culinary ropes of Yangzhou. I remember him taking me and another teacher out for La Mien and duck (places that were staples to most of the teachers) and basically showing us around the city. He was a fun guy and a great friend, and he'll be missed.

Aunt Re-Re, we are so sorry for the loss of Corey. Our prayers have been with him throughout his battle and they continue to be with you and Casey now. You are so incredibly blessed to have spent such precious time with Corey while he was undergoing treatment. That is time that would have otherwise taken twenty years to fit in. We pray that you are comforted by the close relationship you shared and the three months that you spent one on one. You were a source of encouragement and inspiration to Corey and he left to spend eternity with both his heavenly and earthy fathers knowing just how deeply your love is for him. May God be with you now during this time and comfort you with wonderful memories, allowing you to laugh and smile at all your adventures together. We love and miss you so much,
Jeff, Amy, Noah and Carsen

Dear Corey's Family,
Dr. Bob just emailed me about Corey, and I am writing with tears in my eyes. When I think of Corey, the first word that comes to mind is "sweet." After that come "gentle," "kind," and "caring." I am not surprised at the large number of entries in the guest book because I know he touched the lives of many others.
I worked with Corey in Yangzhou; he was always one of my favorites. I hold you in my heart.

To Corey's Family,
Corey was truly a wonderful person. The world is diminished with his loss. He was taken much, much too young. He was always full of life and fun. I worked with him for a few years in China and can safely say that he is one of the kindest, most considerate people ever. It is truly a tragedy, my heart goes out to all of you. You can, however, take pride in the fact that he spread love wherever he went and surely influenced the lives of many children for the better. He was a wonderful person.

I knew Corey in China and he is one of the coolest people I have ever met - kind, helpful and able to make me laugh in an instant. A truly devastating loss to friends and family alike. I will never forget the great times we shared together and wish there could have been more...

I am truly at a loss for words. I have so many great memories growing up with Casey and Corey. All of the camping trips, early mornings at school, and running around the neighborhood together. I will always remember Corey's outgoing personality and wonderful sense of humor. He would always find a way to crack an entire room up. Our thoughts and prayers are with Marie, Casey, and the rest of the Mull family. I know that you have two very special guys watching over you!

I was a friend and colleague of Corey's in China. I feel for his loss and hope that through this sad time everyone can remember what a great guy he is.
I made a small online photo album of him. I won't forget how awesome he was, and I hope you all can see some of his experiences for the first time.

To Corey's Family and Friends,
My heart is full of sadness upon learning of Corey's death at such a young age. I was Corey's boss at the school in China. I loved working with him...such a quiet, gentle, loving demeanor. He was loved by his colleagues, students and their families. He will long be remembered, and missed, my people on both sides of the world. I trust he is now at peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you as you deal with this sorrowful loss.

Casey, Jyobin, and the rest of Corey's family I am so sorry for your loss. I was fortunate enough to meet Corey and spend the last two years teaching with him in Yangzhou. He was someone I enjoyed spending my time with; travelling, trying to cook, playing frisbee, working out, and just hanging around with other friends!
Corey was one of the guys I would constantly go to, during my first year, for all my questions. Whether the question seemed ridiculous or redundant he never hesitated to answer. He was someone I relied on and developed a great friendship with, he really was a unique person! I never really met someone that could be so selfless and helpful. While I am saddened to hear this news, I am glad to have had the time I did with Corey. I also feel lucky to have been able to talk with him online since I returned.
There are many great memories that I have of Corey and they will not be soon forgotten. Happy times travelling together, frustrating but helpful times working together on the middle school lesson plans! Corey is someone I am grateful to have as a friend. Casey, Jyobin, and the rest of Corey's family you will be in my family's prayers! A person who brought so much happiness into everyone's life will not be forgotten!

Dear Marie, Casey and Jyobin,
I'm so sorry for your loss. Corey was a great friend to me for the past 3 years and I have so many good memories of him that will stay with me forever. I have many great photos of Corey abroad that I would love to share with you.
Corey, I will miss traveling with you, baking with you, laughing with you and eating until we're "miserable" together. I really thought that when we said good-bye in June, we'd be seeing each other again soon. I can't believe you're gone but I have nothing but good memories of you. Love ya, buddy.
