Though you passed before you and my daughter could carry out your future endeavors and plans of marrying, having more children and living the rest of your lives together as husband and wife, you were already my son in law, already a brother in law and already a fixed and loving member of our family! The love you showed to my daughter and grandson(her son Dominic) to me and our whole family was evidence of the true, loyal and honest feelings that you shared for her and the lengths you would go to make it known to all of us, as well as Kristen. You often spoke of the terrible and turbulent past relationship you had with your sons (Zaydens) mother and how different and real and true your and Kristens and the boys lives were. Your patience, help and relationship with the boys and help parenting them was worthy of praise and bordered father of the year levels! All the above were trivial though, as the one great and true character trait that you carried and portrayed was your simple, devoted and unwavering loyal love and attention that you always gave to Kristen. Thank you for being a part of her life, of our familys lives and for just being Corey……. your are truly missed son……

I cant get passed the news. We grew apart after school when I left for the military. Growing up we always had each others backs. I have a bunch of great memories with you, the Epcot trip, the skatepark days. Us acting a fool in math class. Ill cherish those days. I wish I could talk to you once more, wish we could have had our kids get to know each other. Just wish you were here with us still bro. Youre missed by so many. I hope your friends and family can find peace some point. My heart hurts for you homie. Till Valhalla my brother.

Matthew and I went to kindergarten together and all of elementary and some middle school. I will forever remember Matthew for being a good hearted big hearted down to earth no bs friend that has touched so many people. He was a good man and a good daddy. I know hes with his brother and they are in a much better place then us. Life IS so short and life is only a portion if what God has in store for us. God called home his son and we will all be reunited when its our time. Matthew you will be missed my friend.
