Hey Cory, It's almost midnight and everyone has left. There was not a moment today that you were not in my thoughts. I know what a terrible day this must have been for all your family, especially your Mom and Dad and Christian. Did you have any idea how much you were loved.... and by so many people? It is really helping your family to hear all about the wonderful friend you were. I'm getting to know your mom and dad and Christian. They are so wonderful. I can understand why you became such a great young man I have a question. What is Christmas like in heaven? I'm sending you hugs, Mrs. E.

My prayers and thoughts are with you!! And your family. I can't imagine how hard the holidays must be this year with out Cory. He was amazing. I can't tell you enough. I'm sure you already know. It's still hard to come to terms with! I look at this picture and I'm sure he is gonna walk into work tomorrow. I know being the person you are, you want everyone to celebrate and be happy regaurdless of the situation. That's just the kind of guy you are! Happy, smart, funny, kind, caring..... I could go on. No really I could. Man, Cory I miss you!! Merry Christmas to you and your family.... Love ya ~Tara

hey cory. long time, no talk. i met your mom and your bro the other day. wish i had done it when we were goofing around. anyways, i'm thinking about you today, being christmas...remembering how excited i was last year because we had met a few days prior. remembering your nervous phone call to me. its makes me smile. good memories. thanks for making my winter months last year especially "erooberant." you will always hold a special place in my heart, it just takes the worst to sometimes make you realize it. thank you for all you gave me. much love to you. jill

Hey Cory, Happy Christmas! (as the British say) Mary Ann and I were thinking about you this morning and wanted to say hi. I want to use the soccer socks you let me borrow as my stockings this Christmas. They'll be perfect. Sorry about the Chargers, I really thought we had it last week. My dad said it, "there will never be Christmas without Cory". Miss you man.

Thanks for your quick wit and easy smile. The warmth of your soul will resonate for a log time to come. You will be missed. P.s. Thanks for teaching me poker?

Even though I had only known Cory for few months, the comments on this page and his myspace page make me realize that no matter how long he was a part of your life, he made an impression. Cory, you were, and continue to be a role model for me. I would consider my life a success if I positively affected even a small percent of the people you have in your brief time on earth. I am remembering you with laughter and smiles, because that is what you always gave me. To Cory's family, my prayers are with you, and know that all of us that knew and loved Cory will carry him with us forever. Though he may be out of sight, he will never be out of our hearts.

To all of my brother's friends out there in cyber-land, dropping by for a visit: I am putting together a video memorial for Cory's service next week, as many of you may know. I'm hoping to insert video clips into it if I have time- my personal resources for transferring video to computer and time are limited, so we'll see, and it may just end up being still shots. But if any of you have video of Cory or pictures, please send ASAP to me at cjbd35@yahoo.com or call me at 760-715-7475. I really want to create the best tribute for my brother possible, and anything you send will help. Thanks, and much love.

Toeveryone who knew Cory, I did not know him very well but I have seens these last few days how much he is missed. God is taking care of him now. what more can you ask for besides his presence. love jenna

Please keep Saturday January the 14th from 1pm to 4pm open. I have been given the use of the field at the Escondido Sports Center. Here is the idea, we are going to play 20 min pick up games for the three hours we have the field. All skill levels are welcome. We are going to be collecting donations for the Denton family. Guys and girls of any ability are more than welcome. The only thing you need are shoes, shin guards, socks to cover the shin guards and be ready for a good time. If you do not have a Sports Center player card, you will need to fill out a one day waiver. If you are interested, please let me know. It will be helpful to have an idea of how many players to expect. Please tell all of your friends... Brian

Hey bro. Listenin' to the I-tunes on your laptop right now... looking for you in the sound, finding the right ones for you next Thursday......gotta be the best ones for the best brother this world has ever known, right?.......And if you think I exaggerate a lot sometimes?.well, you may be right, but not this time. Hey, I?m your older brother??.I?m always right?...come on, I know you knew THAT?? Think I just found another great song.....I think I have to use this one ....pretty sure you probably loved it........you'll just have to wait till next week to hear it. By the way, your friends........... kick so much lovin' ass. I can't believe how much they loved you. I hope you knew that. I had no idea. I wasn't even close to having a clue. I've got Che tryin' to figure out your elusive password. If you don't want me to know what it is, you're going to have to let me know, because he?s on the case, and you know he?s got tha skillz?... You know, let me know dream-style or somethin'. Or visit me like he seems to think you may have visited him the other night. And I'll try to feel ya too. I don't have the "gift" like he has, but who knows...... So just stop on by and give me a handshake or somethin'..... What, huh, what did you say? "Brothers don't shake hands. Brothers gotta hug!" Oh, yeah, heh heh i forgot..... Well here's to all the hugs....... Hope they are packed to the gills with British brew where you've gone so you can hoist and chug to that with me. Good night brother. Good night always. I miss you and if you think I?m ever gonna leave you alone and stop talking to ya, well, you know, good luck with that. P.S. Monte says he misses you. Well he was saying it as he was falling off the roof, but I think that?s what he said??
