In loving memory of Corey Jermaine Else, who graced this world with his vibrant spirit from February 6, 1989, until his untimely departure on September 14, 2025. Corey was not just a name but a beacon of joy and laughter for all who had the privilege of knowing him. His presence lit up the room, captivating hearts with his bright smile and infectious humor that left a lasting impression.

Born in the heart of winter, Corey entered the world with an energy so palpable that it seemed to fill every corner of his life. From a young age, he exuded an unmistakable charm, weaving moments of joy into the daily lives of family and friends. His laughter was a melody, one that is now forged into the memories that those who loved him will hold dear.

As a loving soul, Corey possessed a unique ability to uplift those around him, creating warmth and connection in a world that often needed it. Friends would recount stories of his kindness, his funny quips that could turn a mundane day into an unforgettable adventure, and the way he made challenges seem surmountable with his unwavering optimism.

Though his journey was far too short, Corey leaves behind echoes of love that will resonate for generations. To honor his sunlight, a Prayer Service will be held at Golden Gate Funeral Home-Dallas (Allene) on October 3, 2025, starting at 7:15 PM and concluding at 8:15 PM. It will be a cherished time for those who knew him to gather in reflection, united in shared memories and loving thoughts.

The following day, on October 4, 2025, a Funeral Service will celebrate Corey’s life at the same location, commencing at 11:00 AM and concluding at noon. Here, friends, family, and the community will come together to share the impact he made, to reminisce of laughter shared, and to pay tribute to a life that, albeit short, sparkled with extraordinary brilliance.

Though the world feels a little dimmer without Corey Jermaine Else, his legacy will forever live on in the hearts and minds of those fortunate enough to have experienced his brilliance. He may have departed from our sight, but his spirit will forever dance in our memories, reminding us to embrace life with the same love, laughter, and brightness that he gifted us every day.
