Jeffrey Spencer Cordrey

It is with great sadness we share the loss of Jeffrey Spencer Cordrey, 61, of Burgess, VA, who went peacefully to his heavenly home on April 24, 2025 surrounded by his loved ones and family of caregivers. Jeffrey was born to the late Lee and Winterfred Dawson Cordrey on July 15, 1963.
Jeffrey is survived by his lifelong friends Judy Jett, Blanche Edwards, and Yvonne Swann, along with many cousins and his loving caregivers.
Jeffrey retired from his position as Administrative Assistant with Northumberland County Public Schools after 18 years. He faithfully served in numerous capacities for many years at Fairfields Baptist Church. His extended knowledge and interest in various historical areas included a historical update of the church, which led to the rewrite of the church history entitled "Upon This Rock". He also wrote "Hunting Memories" as told to him by his father. Most noteworthy, in "A Kingdom by the Sea", written by renowned author Miriam W. Haynie, gave tribute to Jeffrey for his assistance in preparing the book for publication. Jeffrey will always be remembered for his humor and his willingness to be a part of helping with any community event.
