  2. Cory, what great memories we've made through the years. From fighting cousins to hunting buddies. I will miss the way you exit a function without so much as a see ya later. You were a great cook, companion and friend with a heart of gold and just a bit of stubborn. The ol' John gene got you good. I love you so, until we meet again, jump a hay bale or 2 for me ol boy.
