Cory Kougioulis Obituary
Cory Dale Kougioulis (33), born March 24, 1979 in Provo, UT and died March 11, 2013. He graduated from Murray High School in 1998. He attended Salt Lake Community College and Utah Career College, where he received his Associates Degree in Graphic Design. As a talented designer, his work allowed him to travel in and out of the country photographing various ski events. Recently, he became the Marketing and Design Coordinator for Sysco International. Cory married his grade school sweetheart, Candace, in the Timpanogos Temple on August 14, 1999. They have two wonderful boys: Wyatt (10) and Kolten (9); as well as their beautiful baby girl, Gianna (6). His kids are his pride and joy. As a young man he helped make the decision to bless a family with a special gift. Camry holds a very special place in Cory's heart. We are extremely grateful for her adoptive parents, Dave and Dawn, and for the open love that they have shared with Cory. Cory was an Eagle Scout, an avid fly fisherman, and he loved hunting. His favorite past time was fishing with his dad and his boys. Cory shared his love for the outdoors with his family and they will carry on his legacy. Gianna also loved going with them and Cory was always patient with her as she threw rocks in the water and scared all the fish away. Cory Dale is survived by Candace Marie Cayton Kougioulis (wife), Camry Christine Meehan (daughter, age 16), Wyatt Robert James Kougioulis (son, age 10), Kolten Cory Kougioulis (son, age 9), Gianna Kyanne Kougioulis (daughter, age 6), Joseph Dale Kougioulis (father), Eileen Mott Kougioulis (mother), three sisters: Shealeen (Brad) Thurman, Stephanie (Weston) Hayes, Samijo Kougioulis, his nephews, and June LeRoy (Audrey) Mott (Grandfather). Preceded in death by, Beth VerJean Mott (Grandmother), Esther Marie Kougioulis and James Clyde Kougioulis Sr. (grandparents).Funeral services will be held on Monday, March 18, 2013 at the Murray 28th Ward LDS chapel. (932 W. Green Oaks Drive Murray, Utah). A viewing will be held from 10:00am-12:00pm, with services starting at 12:00pm, followed by the graveside dedication at the West Jordan Cemetery located at 1300 W. 7800 S. West Jordan, Utah. In Lieu of flowers, a donation account has been set up through Zions Bank under the Cory D. Kougioulis Donation account, for the benefit of his children.

Joe & Eileen,
We are very sorry to hear of Cory's passing. It's been 20 years since we seen Cory and we still remember the fun spirited, energetic and loveable kid he was..... Dan recalls him always putting his best foot forward in scouting. We think of The Kougioulis Clan quite often and the True friendship we had with you while living in West Jordan. May You & Your family find peace in knowing that you will be with him again someday; FOR WE KNOW FAMILIES ARE FOREVER!!

We just learned ofmthe passing of Cory. We are terribly saddened by this loss. This last coming year I got to know Cory. My older son played football with Wyatt and my younger son was on Kolton's team. We really enjoyed getting to know Cory and he will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. Especially his two boys whom we grew to love as much as Cory.
Love the Burgeners

Thanks for watching out for my little brother when you guys where young. You shaped him into the person he is today. Between you, and Anthony he stayed out of a lot of problems. At least Anthony has a partner in crime now. RIP......

Cory you were such a great person to be around. You always made a bad day better just by being there to listen. My parents both loved you like a third son and loved having you over for dinner. You are one of a kind. I can't even remember any time you were ever upset or disappointed in me. You just let me be me and I thank you for that. Give my mom a big hug for me and smack Anthony upside the head (then give him a hug too).
LOVE YA. EJM

The Kougioulis family~ I am so sorry for your loss! May the lord comfort you in this time. Cory~ Thank you for all the wonderful memories, laughs, and hugs when i needed them. I will be the first to admit that you were not that great at square dancing. That's right I remember the square dancing we were forced to learn. But its probably because you were looking at Candace the whole time! Hehe. Oh how I am going to miss you! See you on the flip side my friend.

Kougioulis family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I did not know Cory, but know the Kougioulis family well from growing up together in Butte. This process isn't easy, and will be a battle everyday for everyone who knew him, stick together, celebrate memories even if they make you cry more than smile. May the Lord comfort you and may you find peace at this difficult time.
