Condolences from Oscar Zubia

I can't believe this. I just heard today of Corey's passing. It had been
so long since I even heard from Corey. All I have now are all of the
memories from when we were younger and still living in California. We used
to hang out almost everyday, we would take him to school and he would stay
with us until his mom got home from work. He was always one of my favorite
friends, we all had so much in common. Going over to Corey and Joy's house
was always fun, I never knew how much I would miss it. When we moved we
barely kept in touch and then Corey and Joy moved to New York. We would
keep in touch a bit through email and instant messenger but I wish there
could have been more. Joy encouraged me and my brother to plan a trip up
there but things didnt work out and we all got busy with our own lives, I
wish it could've been arranged, I wish things could have been different. I
would give anything to go back in time and go up to see Corey one last time,
get to know him again, see what he grew up to be. Judging from this blog
and from the video that was made for him and all of his comments and
condolences I see that he turned out just like I thought he would. He was
always an amazing guy raised by an amazing mom. It hits me so hard that
this could happen to someone this full of life. He will not be forgotten in
my mind and in my family's minds, we all loved Corey very much and will
always remember him. We hold so many memories of the past, I only wish I
could've been part f his future. My condolences go out to everyone out
there who is grieving about this loss and hope everyone can get through
this, life goes on and Corey will not be forgotten.
