I had the good fortune of working alongside Corey at Radiology Regional Center for 7 years and at the Cape Coral VA as well for 5 years. Learning of his passing 2 hours ago hit me hard as he was such a young man.
All through these years Cory was a model of patience and kindness to his patients and work colleagues. He always had a smile on his face and was always ready to help.
The world has lost a very special man and humanity has been made better by his examplary
life.
I offer my deepest condolances to all who have loved him and are grieving his passing,
A colleague,
