  10. There are people in this world that come into your lives and leave such a impact on your heart, Cory was just that kind of person who just came for a moment but left us with such a wonderful gift and impact. His love and care for our kids at Nick Amster Workshop was such a gift. He really took the time to connect with our kids and put smiles on their faces, brought laughter and joy to each one of them. He was just a all around nice guy who we truly felt as a friend to us especially our son Joey who will miss Cory so much. I know that Cory is now pain free, no more illness, no more medical procedures. He’s been given the ultimate healing. He impacted our lives with his presence just for a little while but our hearts forever. God Bless his family and please know you all are in our thoughts and prayers!!
