Obituary of Jason Robert Corey
Jason Corey 35, of Sidney NY passed away with his family by his side on Saturday, September 7, 2019 at Bassett Medical Center.
Jason fought a long hard battle with choroidal metastatic melanoma with great courage and silent dignity.
He will always be remembered for his courageous smile, creative mind and loving generosity. Jason took great pride in his gardening skills, was a MacGyver with his innovations, loved his music, playing his guitars and spending his time entertaining and playing with his precious little boy.
Jason married Lisa Jordan on September 29, 2018. She survives him. Jason was born January 25, 1984 in Binghamton NY. He started working for Gavin's while still in high school and continued after graduation. Mike Gavin remained his mentor and close friend until his passing. Before he became ill, Jason co-owned Two Dough Boy's and then was employed by Bassett as an environmental technician.
Jason was predeceased by his father: Robert E. Corey; maternal grandfather: Donley D. Wheeler; and paternal grandparents: Herb and Marie Corey.
Along with Lisa, Jason is survived by precious son Jordan James (JJ); his mother and step-father, Cindy and Glenn Skinner; Grandmother, Darlene D. Wheeler; his sister: Jennifer (Randy) Hartz; nieces: Kailynn and Kendra; in-laws: Dave and Nora Jordan; many special aunts, uncles, cousins and dear friends.
