The Three Little Pigs and Their Mama

Corey's memorial service.

It came as a shock to all of us to hear that Corey had died in a car accident.

I cried in sorrow and felt the loss we all felt of Corey's death,

It's OK to cry.

We cry for our friend

who laughed, played and grew up with us.

We cry for a boy we taught, who wanted to learn.

He showed us that everyone can learn - if they try.

We cry for our buddy that we used to help in class.

He showed us that we can help and support others.

We cry as parents who know how precious our children are

and how they are all special.

After the crying comes the remembering,

the talking of things Corey had done,

The laughing about funny little things -

like his enthusiastic singing,

or wanting to hug everyone.

I like to believe that no one is truely dead

while they are still alive in our memories.

So let's keep Corey alive by remembering him.

Mrs Robyn Dunn.
