Cory Drake Obituary
He was born on September 29, 1985, to Bobby Drake and the late Nancy Drake. Cory was a native of Gaylesville, AL.
He is preceded in death by his mother, Nancy Drake; his second mother, Dawn Drake; sister, Amanda Drake; and cousin, Adam Drake.
Cory was an avid fisherman in his down time and enjoyed spending his days at the lake, riverbanks, or on the side of the road, pole in hand. Cory was also a very proud father, and his children were his pride and joy.
He is survived by his daughter, Destiney Drake (Korbin Murphy); sons, Colton and Jaxon (and their mother, April Miller); and his brother, Robert Drake.
A celebration of life will be planned at a later date.
