Warm hugs to Corlene’s family. She was a delightful friend who shared important milestones of my life as well as experiences of everyday living with a listening ear and a quiet laugh. I will miss her letters and phone conversations.

On behalf of Eastern Mennonite High School, I wanted to share our condolences with the family. Although I never had the opportunity to meet Corlene, I was inspired by what she treasured in life as described in her obituary. We still call students to love the same things she did – what a testimony her life was! “She loved God, His written Word, people, playing piano, singing, nature and art. She had a sweet disposition and a thankful heart.” We’re also grateful for her decades of support for our school and students.
