Corey S. Jernberg of Gainesville passed away on Saturday, February 27, 2010. To those of you who knew and loved Corey, we thank you most sincerely. He left us on his 24th birthday. They say you take nothing with you when you go, yet our hearts are missing. Truth be known, Corey was the reason our hearts had grown. He taught us the true meaning of forgiveness throughout the years. We raised him as a free spirit. Trouble came from that ideology, yet so did unconditional love. With a smile, a hug and an "I love you," he lived most sincerely.
Corey is survived by his father, Eric Jernberg, mother & step-father, Yvonne & Mike Cook; sister & brother-in-law, Gretta & Adam Lane, sister, Jill Smith, nieces, Erica Smith & Mya Lane, nephews, Cody Smith & Andrew Lane, grandmother, Frances Kobar. Many loving cousins and friends also survived. Corey was preceded in death by his uncle, Tim Smith.
