Corey Alan Robinson
What Corey was like
Corey was always finding a way to make everyone around him laugh. His smile was always genuine and his laugh so contagious. He never stopped fighting his addiction and just always strived to be the very best man he could possibly be.
Fondest memories of Corey
There are so many memories that pip up into my head at the most random times, almost always of him somehow making me laugh. No matter what the situation, he could make it light somehow. That was truly his gift. Didn't matter if he was around family or complete strangers, if someone was having a rough day, Corey made it his mission to make them chuckle before he left the room. People knew him as a joker, so much people he would enter a room and people would just wait on the jokes to come.
How Corey will be missed
I will miss his ability to turn any situation around. He was my rock for many years and I know he was the glue holding many others together. He leaves behind 4 children who miss him tremendously. He leaves a mother who cries for her boy daily. Sisters who miss their little bros laugh. A father who would give anything for one more road trip with his son. Corey leaves a huge hole in so many lives, a hole that's made bigger by the absence of his laugh.
How Corey will be remembered
Corey would want to be remembered for who he was without his addiction. He fought behind closed doors for so many years so as to not embarrass or bring shame on his loved ones. He would want to be remembered as a hard working father. A devout mamas boy. A little brother who would always defend his sister's and as a loving friend. Corey loved animals and always seemed at ease when around them. He was a teacher of many things, but mostly he was a good man. He found the best in all situations.
