Corbin was always kind to Tony and me. He made me feel welcome at the pancake breakfasts and at our little church. It's hard to put into words how much he meant to us coming new to the community 30 + years ago. Thank you, prayers for Betty's comfort in this difficult time. Anne Burnett (Craigg).

One of the kindest men I ever met. Even though we were cousins,-we didn’t see each other very often. But I always got a birthday card every year from him.

My thoughts are with Betty and his entire family. Carolyn Wood Durham

What a treasure to get to know someone like Corbin. Visits with him and Ms. Betty have been full of kindness, laughs, and good gardening tips. He may have even encouraged a few of us to take up gardening. We will miss our visits with him. Ms. Betty and Coleman, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
