Corky was my friend and brother-in-law for 63 years. He was the most lovable, kind and caring man. I will miss him forever.
Some of my best Iron Range memories are of our get-togethers with Corky and Shirlee. We had so much fun and so many laughs. I know that Bob (Wennen) would have called him his best friend. Lots of love from me, Shirlee.
On behalf of the Forest Lake American Legion Post 225, we give thanks for LuRay’s military service to our nation and to veterans as a Legion member.
