I was in a trading room on discord with Corey. Not only did he lighten up the room, but you could tell he was a genuinely good person. It pains us all that he has passed as we’ve been looking for him for a while. Thanks for the memories brother, I will always remember you. Go Lions!
I heard that Corey Chupp was a good guy in Athens. When we organized a work party to repair the brick sidewalk at a neighbor's house on a Saturday, Corey shambled out of his house across the street with a couple of tools and pitched in, demonstrating how it should be done. He may have still been feeling the effects of the drinking the night before, but he lead the team and showed the volunteers how to do it right. We finished the project and saved her $500. I'll always remember his generosity. He had a good reputation in Athens, and will be missed.
I knew Corey in the Towers at Central. He was such a light. He had a smile for everyone he met. Saying prayers for his family ❤️
Central Michigan in the late 90's wouldn't have been the same without Corey. He WAS the Towers Experience. Whether he was smiling and greeting people as they came in past the front desk, performing his impromptu song as Nuwanda Fufu, or getting people educated and involved as a Multicultural Advisor, he had an impact on everyone.
I had the privilege of working with Corey and calling him a friend. We had a blast on our crazy Mardi Gras trip with a crazy greyhound driver, Alabama Trooper, and a Uhaul Hotel Room, and it's one my favorite memories to this day. The world is better for having Corey be a part of it, but
he was taken way too soon. I love you, you crazy and beautiful man.
A sincere prayer and virtual hug was just sent for all of those who love Corey. I am saddened by this news. Our shared time at CMU will continue to celebrate the way he advocated and loved. Necessary tense conversations and silly laughter is how I experienced Corey. I am blessed to have shared his space.
To Corey's friends and family - I just need to add my love and complete admiration of this man to his legacy. He touched so many people and Im proud to be one of them. I was lucky to know him in college and to reconnect with him years after. I have a voicemail from him a week before his passing and it leaves me so full and empty at the same time. That smile. That laugh. That big heart. Count me among the many who loved Corey Chupp. Fully. Completely.
First I like to offer my condolences to his family Corey was a good friend of mine while attending Reeths Puffer we played high school basketball on junior and varsity basketball team he was always competitive and showed so much passion when we battled in practice man chupp my heart is broken right now even though I have seen you in a while but I never forgot about true friends and that’s what you was to me you will be missed brother RIP
I remember Cory's smile well. Also his kindness and the way he could make everyone around him feel like they belonged , no matter what. He was always kind to my son . I'm so saddened by his passing. And for his family that they are joining a club that no one ever wants to and never have the choice. Many prayers for his family.
