Lori, We are very sorry for the loss of your mother. Corrine was a dedicated and concerened employee, we were very fortunate to have her and Vivian work for us for so many years. We had great times working together, and some pretty good parties also. We will remember her smile, and tender loving ways. God bless her.
I have such great memories of my mom and her "crazy cousins"! The amount of laughing that went on at those Thorne functions!! Take care Lori.
Paul and Lori,
Corinne has felt like family to me since the first day I met her. Her humor and optimism made her completely magnetic. I especially loved the days when we all went out with the "Golden Girls" (Corinne and her sister), those were some of the funniest times I can remember. Corinne was one of a kind, and I will truly miss her!
Lori
We will miss your mother dearly. She was a great person and a lot of fun to be around. She loved her family and couldn't say enough good things about them. You have our deepest sympathy and condolences.
I worked at Eastview and one day while I was hectically running around she called me to her doorway and she handed me a Kit Kat.She said"I thought you might need to refill your energy."I was so touched by the fact that she wanted to cheer me up.She is surely in heaven and with her sense of humor God is surely laughing.
