Thanks for being a friend and I am glad you died doing something you enjoyed.
Ellen Munoz (Fort Worth, TX)

I treasured knowing Corbett for being a friendly, welcoming, helpful, and mostly fun friend.

Corbett,

Thanks for all of the memories we have all shared over the years. I really can't remember a time that you weren't there. I remember all of your nerdy little sayings. You were a great guy for my mom and she missed you before you were ever gone. Save us a place up there.

Corbett,

The times we shared camping together at EVERY rally I ever attended will never be forgotten.  You are a true friend that will be missed.  The memories of your crazy sense of humor, to the stories you told after staying up all night!  You were always there for not just me, but everyone you met.  I can truly say the only two things I ever heard you seriously talk about were your beautiful family, and of coarse, scooters.  Love to you and your family.  

Do a big vespa burnout over my my house!
Your friend,  Jeremy Holbrook

Gary and Barb, so sorry to hear of your loss, you are in our thoughts and prayer.

Corbett is my first cousin that I grew up with. We were even in the same classes at school. I was in shock to hear of his passing. He will be missed.

Karen and Buck,
My deepest sympathy on the loss of your father. You are all in my prayers.

Corbett,

We rode thousands of miles together on Gem City Rollers rides.  I'll always remember how you patiently waited hours for me to be discharged from Miami Valley Hospital following my accident in '09.  You also twice provided me transportation home following two surgeries.  Aside your children and grandchildren, you loved nothing more than riding your Vespa.  I'm so glad it was your transport from this life to a better one.  Rest in peace my friend!

We were sorry to hear about Corbett...We met Sarah who told us about scooter club activities...and we joined in with a fun group!...please share our condolences with his family.

Corbett,

Over the years we have ridden thousands of miles together on Gem City Roller rides. I'll never forget how you patiently waited hours for me to be discharged from Miami Valley Hospital following my accident in '09 and how you twice transported me home from the hospital following surgeries.  Aside from your children and grandchildren, nothing gave you more pleasure than riding your Vespa.  So glad it was your means to move from this world to a better one.  Rest in peace my friend.

I remember you from Richard St a long time ago.My deepest sympathy to your family.

Corbett, you will be greatly missed. Please know that my prayers are with family and friends at this difficult time. The Gem City Rollers will never be the same.

Corbett along with me alot of people lost a Great friend will miss seeing you at the shop keep smiling down on us.Good by my friend

Between the ages of ten to eighteen, we were constant companions; trading comic books, learning chess, Scouts, Citil Air Patrol.  We pondered the meaning of life and read science fiction.  I joined the Air Force and lost contact with him after a visit or two.  I saw him c.1952 and when we started to talk after so many years it was as if only a day or two had passed.   I will miss him.  He was more than just a friend.

So sorry to hear about Corbett.  He was an asset to the Gem city Rollers.  We will all miss him.

Karen:

I was saddened to hear about the loss of your father. I will keep you in my prayers during this difficult time and would like to extend my sincere condolences.  May all of the happy memories continue to cherish your heart.
