Aunt Kay, I am just remembering the good times I enjoyed with my cousin Corey and his boys. My grandma talks about the things he did when he came to visit. I often look at his pictures. Although he is gone, he will never be forgotten. I love you.

May it comfort you to know, that when you lose a loved one who has meant so much and touched many people's lives, the grief that you are feeling cannot take away the happiness you all shared, and that sorrow will fade in time but the love will remain forever.

You are in my prayers, but God has Corey now. Delinda, God is the Great Comforter. It will be hard for you and your family, but Corey closed his eyes on earth and opened them to see the face of God.

I had only met Corey on a few occassions, he sold me my first life insurance policy for my children.
To his wife and children, GOD will take care of you and keep you safe within his loving arms and care.
Peace and Blessings to you all.
