29 Jul 2023I went to high school with Corinne, Class of ’02. She was always fiesty, smart, and confident. We were both in choirs together and I always admired her strength of character.
She compelled me through many conversations to do better and walk taller when I would have rather hidden and stayed shy.
I lost touch with Corinne over the years but still think of her influence on me from time to time. While we were never close, her impact will be remembered.
My heart goes out to her many family members and friends as they grieve this amazing woman who had such passion for life. May God grant you peace and sustain you in your time of grief.

31 Jul 2023Corinne, you are unforgettable from the minute I met you as a bright eyed baby, and growing up together, you are one of the few people who kept your fire all through life. Even when you didn’t say a word, your face spoke for you unafraid to say what you need to. Your hearty voice and laugh unmistakable in any room you enter. Your confidence touches so many because it is rare.
We will all remember you and think of you. Heartfelt hugs and God’s unconditional and everlasting comfort and peace as I share this sorrow with your loving family.
Strength and daily comfort for Danny and your kids (your face shines in all of them, you are not forgotten but remembered every time they laugh), Courtney (who gave her sister her all) and her family (who supported Courtney sharing everything she has), Aunt Nancy and Uncle Frank (words cannot express their pain and God give them peace in that they gave everything they have to their precious gift of a daughter) Uncle Bruce and cousin Brian (our family has gone through a lot and we support each other), and love to Danny’s family as they strengthen Danny for this new chapter of fatherhood. Give each other grace and room to grieve this is so much and I honor what you all gave to Corinne.
Love, Cousin Amy

1 Aug 2023My heart is heavy as I write this. I have no place yet my heart and memories compel me. An emptiness has been created that I trust in God to fill in ways we may never know. Good will come of this. I cant help but think Corinne would want that. She always saw possibility in everything. And had the energy to make it happen.
Blessings on her lovely children, may they find strength, inspiration and pillars of support. Blessings on all of you, her caring family and friends.
