I am so sorry, I just saw this. Corey was my bunkmate in bootcamp. We had alot of laughs and went through some tough times together.
I regret no keeping in touch. He was a good friend.

I knew Cory a long time ago. We were a couple for about 5 minutes but we stayed friends for a few years, he helped me thru some rough times financially and I never forgot him. He was a good guy, smiled and laughed a lot. I can´t imagine him not running around being the Cory I used to know. That is how I´ve always thought of him and how I will continue to remember him. I just found out about his death and while it´s been years I am very sorry for his families loss. My sincere condolences, I know Cory and his loud personality will be missed.

Cory and I were friends 25 years ago. We traveled the same highways thru life during that tenure. We drifted apart thru the years and i thought of him frequently. He was always full of spit and vinegar. He will be missed by many. Who could ever forget that mustache back then.

I knew Cory many years ago. He was always so energetic. A funny memory I will share. We were all having a drink at a bar in the Lyndon area and Cory grabbed the bartenders drink dispenser and sprayed her with it. The bartender was furious!! He was barred until I convinced the bartender that he was simply flirting and she let him back in. She wasnt quite his type back then as Cory was quite a good-looking guy. Lots of good times with good friends. I know he will be missed. He lit up the room because he was so full of life. Always told me to stand straight, dont slouch!! Im So sorry for your loss and I will be praying for him family. God Bless you all.
