Corina will be remembered as a woman of faith who deeply cherished her family. She will be remembered most by her family for the deep devotion, love, and tenderness she had for each of them.

As a wife, mother, grandmother, and greatgrandmother, Corina instilled in her children the traits of strength, determination, hard work, and self reliance. In addition to carrying oneself with a pleasant personality and disposition, she taught her children to be courteous to people, to be respectful, to acknowledge people, and to wear a smile. The social graces were just as important to Corina because it rounded out the inner strength she expected from her children.

Corina was the epitome of what a woman should be strength, grace, selfsacrifice, love, and kindness. Her family and friends will miss her beautiful smile and grace. Even though our hearts are broken, we rejoice because she has last joined her husband, RC. They will be dancing as they did so beautifully with their beloved daughter, Elsa, by their side.
