To my Uncle Corkey.  There was a time in my 20's when Mom and Dad lived in Germany.  I spent some time with you and Aunt Doris because I had some medical issues going on.  When you finally took me home the doctor had said that I needed to be in the sun for an hour a day.  Every day around 11 o'clock you came over, took out my lawn chair, helped me down the steps and into my chair.  You left and went home about a hour later you came back to make sure I got in the house and brought in my lawn chair.  You did that for me for a week.  

I will never be able to thank you enough for doing that for me.  I love you and will miss you.

My name is Hoyle Riggins. I met John in Korea as we were replacements for  the troops coming home. It was a National Guard unit from Canton, OH, the 987th AFA B battery. We were assigned to a gun in the battery which had 6 guns, 6 men to each gun. We had a job to do in a close space and there could not be any  friction among the men.

John and I became fast friends and have been till this day.

John, I want to thank you for being my friend all these years. You will always be in my heart. God Bless You.

Uncle Corky you will be missed, I remember the times as a young girl I would get to come to your house in caseyville and stay a few days Oh how I loved doing that my memory takes me to Aunt Doris teaching me how to make chile and how not to bite my nails and to grow pretty long nails, and when you would come in from work You would ask what did you girls do today, thats just a touch of my memories
                                                                                          Love you

My name is Hoyle Riggins. John and I met in Korea and were replacements for the troops coming home. It was a National Guard unit from Canton, Ohio, the 987th AFA B battery. John and I were assigned to the same gun in our battery of which there were 6 guns, 6 men per gun. We each had a job to do, in a close space which to work, and there couldn't be any friction. John and I became fast friends and have been till this day.

John, I want to thank you for being my friend all these years.  You will always be in my heart. God Bless You!

Ricky and Johnny:
So sorry to hear about your Dad's passing.  I will always remember both your Mom and Dad and you guys living across the street from us in Caseyville.  They were great people.  My sincere condolences!

John ...the biggest "tip" you ever gave me was to look into the VA for help, with my cancer medicine.  I enjoy talking to you years ago the the CB Radio.  I also enjoyed working with you on your computer. You will be missed by me and your family. I know you are with your wonderful wife.

A loved one that departs from this earth never truly leaves, because they live on in our hearts and minds. Please accept our condolences, Corky will never be forgotten.

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.
