Corey Lattimore Obituary
While living in Naples, Corey attended the Vineyards and Osceola Elementary School, then moving to Gastonia, NC two years ago where he was an eighth grade student at Southwest Middle School.
Corey's teachers expressed grief in a written statement when they heard the news.
"Corey was a one of a kind individual. He was an excellent student in all of his classes and was well liked by his peers. He enjoyed music and played the trumpet in the band" the statement reads. In one of his journals, Corey wrote that when he grew up he wanted to become a leader of an F-18 super hornet squad. He was very respectful and always maintained his beliefs and stated his opinions. He will be deeply missed by all of his Southwest teachers and peers.
In addition to his loving parents, Jodee Banter and Larry Lattimore; Corey is survived by his beloved maternal grandparents Bill and Marcia Martin of Naples, Florida (former owners of Ultimate Floor Covering) and his paternal grandfather; Daniel Lattimore, several aunts, uncles and cousins. He will be deeply missed by all of his family.
A memorial service will be held on Tuesday, December 16th at 7:00 p.m. at the Ward Funeral Home in Gastonia, N.C. with visitation following from 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. with private graveside service Wednesday.
In lieu of flowers, expressions of sympathy in Cory's memory may be made to the Shriners Hospitals for Children, International Headquarters, 2900 North Rocky Point Drive, Tampa, FL. 33607.

Thinking of you today! So much has changed but our love for you is eternal. I can't say I understand why you had to go but I do know that God has you! I can close my eyes and still see you diving in the pool. And when I see flip flops I smile. I love you Corey Lee Lattimore and I so miss your smile! Aunt, Beth Lattimore Phillips.

To my handsome young man Corey
I have missed you so much the last month. It is hard to see the sorrow in your father's eyes. When I looked into your eyes I saw his. You two had so many of the same traits. You were a good friend to so many and they have been so sweet to us. They have shared memories with us and they still visit with us. Kendal likes all your friends and she hopes to keep in contact with them. You endured so much for such a young man but you were so strong and special that God brought you to your final home. I was the only one in the family that had a love for band and I will continue to attend all the concerts and share that love for music as you did. I was hoping you would do marching band where I have my most fondest memories of high school. I know you are playing your trumpet for all to hear in Heaven. I have your Bible that Nana gave you and I am going to put it to good use. We will always think of you with a smile and remember God had a unique plan for each of us. You were a very special young man to me and I always loved you like you were mine. You had a father, mother, grandparents, aunts and uncles and crazy cousins who loved you very much. You were a important part of our lives that we will cherish always. I love you Corey and love is forever. God's plan for you was for you to be with him and now we must wait until he calls us home. So until me meet agin my little man I will always love and miss you. Aunt Beth and Uncle Robert

To my only son
Corey I miss you more each day. I love you son. You gave me a reason to get up each morning. I know you are with Jesus and I know I will see you again. You were a blessing and I can not express my grief in words. Your friends are still checking on me and I enjoy seeing them because I know how much you loved having them over. My life was forever changed but my love will always be constant. Your love made me a better man. You have so many loved ones who miss you but this is see you later and we know God is coming back soon. See you then son and we can be that family we were before you left on your heavenly journey. God will guide me through until I see you again and I know my mom is holding you tight. She told me you got there safely and I know how much she loved you. I LOVE YOU SON AND IT IS NOT GOODBYE IT IS SEE YOU WHEN I GET TO HEAVEN.

To my sister Janet, my brothers John,and Ray, my niecesJennifer,Jeannie,Debbie,Karen All of Coreys cousins, to Coreys Aunt Cathy,Aunt Becky,Uncle Ron. All of you Shared in Coreys life thru his mothers eyes, and my eyes. Corey is loved by all of you.
I don't know how to get thru this loss, but I do know your love and prayers for Jodee and me will get us thru to the other side of grief.
They say if God brought you to it He will get you thru it. Right now the pain is something no one can know un less you have lost a child.
Corey is my grandson and I loved him as my child .
So Corey this will be my last entry here. I just wanted you to know how much your Moms family loved you. You are home with God and I know you will show us you are Safe and Happy.Some day we will all see you again. You watch us now from above as an Angel in Heaven just as all of the friends and family have watched over us and now you have joined them and they were there to meet you when you got to Heaven.
As Grandpa says send us some fish at the lake and let us feel your presence around us ,Wherever we might be.
We will take care of your Mom Corey, While you are taking care of us.
I love you and you will always be in my heart. Grandma

Dear Jodee,
I, as a mother know what it is like to lose a child. There is no pain greater. My heart aches for you. When my daughters died a little part of me died with them. I can't remember when my pain turned into an ache and the ache a soreness but over the years it did happen.
Jodee none of us know what God has in store for us and the "why's" of life. All we can do is keep our faith and take it one day at a time. Even that is too much sometime and it is one second or minute at a time.
You lost the most important person in your life. There is no love greater than the love for your child. I hope you can find some comfort in knowing what a difference Corey made in some peoples lives by being there for them. He was a good boy and learned how to love from you his devoted mother. Know that you are not alone and your family is with you on this journey of healing.
I love you
Aunt Janet

Dear Marcia & Bill
There are no words that I can say that will ease your pain, make the grieving easier or lighten your hearts. Only time will make it easier to bare. Your lives will never be the same over your tragic loss. Hopefully knowing, as I do, your love for Corey came from the bottom of your hearts will give you some comfort. You can walk with your heads up high knowing you had only unconditional love for him. You were with him the day he was born and he is still with you. He is your shining star. Going to the school with you and meeting his teachers was something I will hold in my heart forever. He was a very special person and he was that special person thanks to you. There is not a doubt in my mind Corey loved you and knew how much you loved him in return. Your unselfish devotion to him can never be denied.
He is up in heaven with Grandma Dressel and Grandma Martin they will watch over him now and give him over to you when you get there. He is in safe keeping for now.
All my love
Janet

To Corey in Heaven,
I'm sorry I haven't written before this. I didn't know the words to tell you how I felt.Today I went fishing for the first time since you went on your journey.
The seat next to me was empty and the boat was quiet. The fish wern't biting as usual and I had alot of time to think.
Corey you were an outstanding young man on this earth.You spoke thru your mind and heart without saying a word outloud.
You touched so many lives in your 14 years on earth young and old.Adults who you respected,classmates that couldn't stick up for themselves who needed your help.
Corey life wasn't always fair to you.You weathered some diffucult times,but you always kept that shy grin on your face. If you didn't know what to say you didn't say anything.
Life on earth won't be the same without you.I wish I could have spent more time with you and realized how precious it was.
When grandma and I came in from fishing today,I felt your spirit in the seat next to mine and it made me smile.I know your in Heaven looking down at me and at this time I really need it.
Here on earth you made my life special. Remember who you got your music interest from? I told you here if you played an instrument I would get it for you. Seeing you play here in Florida at school made me a very proud grandpa.Now you have a full band to play with.
So many memories you have given me.
I know when I get to Heaven,you will make it special again. Please watch over me until my days on earth are complete.
Until we meet again and can fish side by side in Heaven ,Please send some fish my way.
Love Forever Corey
Grandpa
Rest In Peace my Grandson Always Loved and never to be forgotten

Corey I could not believe the news when I heard about you. I had so much fun with you at Beth's the last three years. You were so quiet at first but as you came to trust me we became good friends. Your Aunt Beth is so heartbroken and Kendal wants to win the Elks Hoop Shoot this year for you. And you know how Kendal can be when she sets her mind to something. I will always remember you Florida accent but the past three years were a blast to hear you say yall. I will miss seeing you at Beth's but I will help Kendal keep up on her game. We'll maybe she will help me. You were a great friend with a huge sense of humor. You always loved Robert's gun collection and couldn't wait to shoot the big ones. The Panthers are doing real good and you will not believe who is cheering for the Panthers now..... your Aunt Beth...so see all things are possible. It won't be the same without you but I will miss you always. Your friend from Dallas

corey
Even though i am not blood family to you,I had the honor and priviledge of raising you for the last 3 and a half years. Along with your mom,jodee banter,you turned out to be the bright,caring,charismatic,charming,and stand up young man that you turned out to be and others,like your friends,your cousins(Gage,Colby,and Riley)and the rest of your family,grandmother(marcia) and grandfather(bill), had the oppurtunity to experience and enjoy and cherish.Those special times, that you spent with all the people and family members, are the memories that they will hold onto for the rest of their lives.I know that you are in heaven and that you are with people that received you with open arms and I know that you are safe.You are also meeting people that were influential in my life and I know that they are showing you nothing but mad love up there.I am not going to say good-bye, because I know that you will be up there waiting for me with open arms when my time comes.Just always know that I loved you with all my heart and soul, and in my eyes ,you will always be my son. In my heart,I know that I was always your best friend and a role model/father figure and that I did anything and everything I could to live up to those standards.So long for now, I will see you when its my time, and I promise you that I will love,care for,treat with respect,and be there for your mom for the rest of my life!And you know how I am about promises and keeping them.So while your up there, I know you will be looking out for me and Jodee,and like your mom wrote earlier, I also dont ever want to be a dissappointment in your eyes.When you meet Tupac make sure you make a toast for both me and jodee.I miss you and will never forget you my friend, confidant,and protege.

dear Corey
I felt the need to write to you another time. Words can't express the pain that is inside me now that you are gone. I was however honored that I had the privalage to meet your teachers and all the friends you had made in Gastonia. You have no idea of the positive impact that you made in peoples lives during your short life. That I will treasure throught my days. I miss being able to call you and tell you I love you, goodnight and have a good day at school. They say time heals all wounds and that god won't give us more than we can handle. Well I am really trying my hardest to hold onto that . I know that you are in heaven and all your grandmas are there taking good care of you until we meet up again. It's not the same without you and I doubt it will ever be the same again. So I'm going to do my best to continue on and to not be a dissapointment in your eyes. I know you are with me and I know you are watching over us all. You are my only son and I love you with all my heart and soul. I am not going to say goodbye forever just goodbye for now and you hold a seat for me for when it is my time to go.
Love you always Mom

Corey,
I miss you so much and I miss your phone calls when my Eagles start to lose. I will now cheer for the Panthers too. It has been a hard two weeks but we are going to take care of your Dad. I know you got to celebrate Christmas along with all our loved ones there in Heaven. I can only imagine the beauty of Heaven. Nana got the best Christmas gift ever. She has you in Heaven by her side. Your Dad is so heart broken but we know we will see you again. We love and miss you so much. See you soon my little man.

Dear Jodee
There are no words to make the pain go away. We have a hole in our hearts that will never fill up. I know that Corey is looking down at us and is in the most beautiful place. He is perfect. When a child is born there never to go before us,but God called our Corey home. I will miss his 1 liners on the phone his smile,the twinkle in his eyes when he knew he was getting one over on me. We were blessed to have him here with us for 14 years. All the memories no one can take them away To see all his friends and a school that opened there arms to us was the start of our healing. Corey will be watching us the Mother he loved, His Papaw and me his Grandma. He is in great company with Grandma Olive,Grandma Dressel, there my Angels in heaven and you were my Angel here. Now you are there with them. We all have to get to Heaven some day and I know Corey will be there waiting when God calls us home to. There is a package under my tree with your name on it Corey and it will be there till we meet again.
Corey you have the best seat in the house for watching the Panthers
Corey I was with you when you were born and I know you are with me always. This is not goodby. It is so long for a little while. Walk beside us in our journeys Corey You went to sleep on earth and woke up in Heaven Tell BJ and Sussy HI and don't let them fight with your dog.
I love you Corey Grandma

My dear sister-in-law, Marcia. You're such a loving grandmother to Corey, and I know how hard this is for you and Bill. Thanks to you, I had the honor of meeting Corey and spending time with him. What a pleasant young man, what a joy to our family. We will all miss Corey, and forever think of him. John and I hope and pray that you find comfort in knowing that Jesus has his arms wrapped around Corey each day and night. Corey is special, and God needed him at his side. One day we will understand, although now we can't, and it's hard to accept the loss of a loved one, especially one taken away so young. Marcia, Bill and Jodee, you are in our prayers, and we love you. We're thinking of you always, and here if you need us. Corey, you brought pleasure to all who knew you, and you will never be forgotten.

I heard alot about you. My step daughter Sarah Parker loves you very much and misses you deeply... She told me how you would come by her class and make her laugh and she would get in trouble...but thats ok, you made her smile...your job was done. I know your aunt Tammy, and if you are as sweet as she is...I really missed out on meeting a great boy. Rest In Peace. May God be with your family through these hard times.

Dear Corey,
First off i want to say that you were a really good friend and we all will miss you deeply. S.W.M.S students are all grieving over your death. When i found out that you were gone i was so upset. You were always there and you could put a smile on anybodies face if they were down. I will never forget the time that me and my boyfriend broke up and you were there for me and you cheered me up. I will always remember you and you will always have a place in my heart. I know you are in a better place and i will see you when i get there, but for now this is the least i could do! See you in heaven bro!
In loving memory,
Kayli.

Larry & Jodee,
I've never met you Larry but I knew Corey & Jodee through Marsha and Bill in Florida. Every time Corey visited his grandparents he was always respectful and sweet. He had a wonderful dispostition & kind heart. Proud parents you should be. In this time of grief I am praying and thinking of you both. May your memories bring you comfort.

A Reminiscence
YES, thou art gone! and never more
Thy sunny smile shall gladden me;
But I may pass the old church door,
And pace the floor that covers thee.
May stand upon the cold, damp stone,
And think that, frozen, lies below
The lightest heart that I have known,
The kindest I shall ever know.
Yet, though I cannot see thee more,
'Tis still a comfort to have seen;
And though thy transient life is o'er,
'Tis sweet to think that thou hast been;
To think a soul so near divine,
Within a form so angel fair,
United to a heart like thine,
Has gladdened once our humble sphere.

Larry, I am so sorry for your loss. Kayla and I have only heard wonderful things about Corey. Those remarks are directly a result of the influence you had on him and there is nothing to be ashamed of. You are and always will be a great father. Remember that your pain is greater than any one person should have to bare, but the love that your family has for you and Corey is fare greater than that pain. Kayla and I are praying for you, Beth, Tammy, and Danny. We love and wish you love and prayer. If there is anything that you need don't even hesitate to ask.

I didn't know him nor do I know his family, but I have lost two members of my family in the past year (Great Grandmother and Grandmother) I know it's so hard to try and look at it positively, but just remember, He is with God. All of the love in this guest book goes to him! All my condolences and prayers go to his family and friends! Be strong and remember one day you will see him again and that reunion will be the greatest thing. Best wishes to the family and friends! Corey, so many people loved you and miss you terribly, but don't you worry...You're life will always be remembered. I don't know why, but I felt very compelled to write in your guest book, I'm 16 and know that life is hard but know that my time will come when God allows it to. God wanted you with him, because you're amazing! I hope your life was exactly what you wanted! Perhaps I'll meet you in Heaven someday. To all who loved him, you're in my thoughts and prayers!
With all the love in my heart,

Larry and Jodee,
I dont think I could ever know how you both feel in a time like this. The only thing I know that Corey is in the greatest place ever known. We can only be happy for him knowing that he is with his grandma and the Lord. Maybe this will help...
Isaiah 40:18-31
Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
We will all remember Corey as the young man as he was. See you in heaven Corey!!!

Corey is, and will always be, one of my favorite students ever. When I looked into his eyes, I saw wisdom far beyond his years. I am heartbroken, but I know that he is watching over us from heaven. My love, prayers, and support go out to Corey's family and friends. God Bless.
Corey, I will always remember you and the great times we had in class.

Your family is in my prayers. I was there the night of the fire helping with the scene and it breaks my heart that you have experienced such a loss. It is very hard for first responders after the fact knowing that there was nothing that any of us could do to save Corey. It has weighed on my mind all weekend the loss, pain and suffering that I seen in his fathers eyes that night was something that I will not forget to easily. I just wanted to tell the family that we are all praying for them and that even though none of us never met this fine young man, he was very much loved by so many people and will not be forgotten. There are no words to calm your souls but you have people praying for you. Rest in Peace Corey...you will be remembered by so many that loved you dearly.

i dont know where to start. Corey was one of my bestfriends. He always knew how to cheer me up. I remember he used to like me but I never told him my true feelings for him. I cant belive your gone corey. im never going to forget you. you are always going to be in my heart. I feel horrible for stopping talking to you when i got into highschool. I regret that so much. I wish I would have stayed so close to you and I wish I would have told you how much you really ment to me. Corey You dont know how much I miss you but your in a way better place, Your probably looking down at everyone right now and wishing they wasnt crying about you, you always told me when your gone you want everyone to celebrate your life. Because It was a life that you was going to live to the fullest. Well corey I know you livedthe life you had to the fullest you did what you wanted. Its so hard not to cry though. I cant stop thinking about the fact that your really gone. Corey I Love you and I always wanted you to you that.
