So sorry for the loss of your mother. I had the great pleasure of meeting her while taking care of Al at N.O. Care Center. She was a Wonderful lady and a great friend ! We always would give each other a smile and hug when seeing each other ! There is now another special Angel watching over you all ! May the cherished memories of her bring you much Comfort and Peace !🌺💐🌸
My heart goes out to all of you during this time of transition. Corky was such a great lady and a friend to everyone she met. She most assuredly left this world a much better place, leading by example, how to spread kindness and joy wherever she went. Sending you all healing love ~
My first memory was the Batt's family coming to SLPC. Both of our families had four kids. Batt's family sat in the balcony. My mom was also a secretary for the schools. Kathy was a classmate. May God bring all the wonderful memories that Corky did, may they give the family peace and comfort! RIP Corky.
Corky will be missed by her many friends and family! I knew her both from SL school, church, and her lovely family! I’ll miss your smiling face, dear Corky!
Especially to Kathy, Barb, David and Bobby, and Corky’s beloved extended family: Although we are spending special days in Colorado with our little grandson, how we wish we could be there to share in Corky’s celebration of life! Corky and Barb Fletcher were among the very first SL staff members I met when Mike and I were married. Anyone who was fortunate enough to be a family member, neighbor, friend, SLPS staff member or student is blessed with memories to treasure forever—a great Laker! Thank you for giving us and our kids loving memories, too many to mention here, to treasure forever! (I know Heaven is a perfect place, and we can’t wait to get there in our appointed time, but I’m thinking two incredible Laker moms are setting some new order up there :heart:!)
Fondly, Mike and Peg Secory
