Today, with broken hearts, we say our final goodbye to a wonderful young man, Corey Sandford. His passing has left an unfillable space in the lives of all who knew and loved him. Gone far too soon, Corey had his whole life ahead of him — dreams, plans, and a future that now lives on only in memory.
Corey was the kind of person whose light reached everyone around him. Whether it was through his laughter, his kindness, or simply his presence, he made people feel seen, heard, and valued. Losing him feels different — a deep, aching loss that words can’t fully capture.
To experience death is to know grief, but when it comes to someone so young, so full of life, it hits in a way that shakes us to our core. It’s a painful reminder to cherish every moment, to hold our loved ones close, and to make peace where there’s distance — because tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us.
Corey will be remembered not just for who he was, but for how he made others feel. He leaves behind family, friends, and a community that will never forget the light he brought into the world.
Rest peacefully, Corey. You were loved deeply, and you will be missed forever.
