Arlington, NE Friday, February 6, 2015 We are so sorry to learn of your loss. Cory was a student at Arlington and we had the good fortune to teach him and interact with him. He was a wonderfully kind and considerate young man at that time and I am confident that he matured into a wonderful father and companion. Cory always had a smile and a kind word for others. Cory leaves this world a better place because of his influence. May you be comforted in knowing that the best of him lives on in his children. ~Steve and Lynn JohnsonBjorn & Lisa Hurlen

Fremont, NE Wednesday, February 4, 2015 I am sorry for your loss. Cory was my former student and speech team member at Arlington. By far one of the most upbeat and positive people I've been lucky enough to teach and coach. He always thought of others as well. I remember how he organized a diaper at AHS for the less fortunate his senior year and never complained, just an incredibly happy young man! He will be missed!Becky Marshall
