I am truly saddened to learn that you are mourning the loss of your dear love. We all know that the sting of death is very painful, however, Almighty God promise that soon death will be swallowed up forever along with the pain and sorrow it brings. ( Isaiah 25:8) As for the many that have fallen asleep in death, he promise that they will be ressurrected to life, here on earth. ( John 5: 28, 29; Psalms 37:29) May this hope along with the wonderful memories you have of Corey helps you to cope.

To the family, You have our deepest sympathy and condolences in the loss of your loved one. May you be comforted by the words found at Psalm 34:18; Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; May this scripture help you with the grief and sadness now and in the days ahead. He saves those who are crushed in spirit. Also Hosea 13:14 expresses a wonderful hope for the future, it says: From the power of the grave I (God) will redeem them; From death I will recover them. May these scriptures help you to cope with the grief and sadness now and in the days ahead.

May god watch over your family and provide them with strength at a time like this. Corey it was a pleasure to encounter a soul such as yourself while you were physically on this earth. You have always been a humbling person whenever we did cross paths. The most thought about history we shared together and i can remember like it was yesterday, was when me and your brother nuke got into a little brawl and from there i thought i lost the whole family respect, but only you came and asked me about what happened between us two. At first i was a little scared to speak up on the issue thinking that you was gonna hit me square in the month. Your words were " MAN we family what in the world y'all boys fighting about? Y'all better shake hands and forget about whatever started this mess in the first place. At that moment i was relieved knowing that you not only had your brother back but you also had mines. You were only trying to keep matters calm between the both of us, cause you knew if we continue with this fight it would have never ended so soon then what it did. So i thank you Corey for having that experience and you teaching me about a greater good then the route i wanted to take. Get your rest and i'm glad you do not have to deal with the pain anymore. Love you man.

Please know that we share in your loss. Corey is like a son to me and I love him like that. His smile, laughing and joking will be missed. I pray that God will be with his family and many friends. I pray that this time of sorrow will bring a love and desire for Christ to many that knew Corey. To God be the Glory for Corey's life and the difference he made while here on earth.
