Korey was a 1989 graduate of Kenton High School. He worked as a self-employed truck driver. He was a member of the Amvets Post 1994 in Kenton as well as the Amvets Riders.

When he wasn’t spending time with his family and spoiling his grandkids, Korey enjoyed riding his motorcycle and his other vehicles. He loved to wheel and deal and always had side by sides, four wheelers or old cars in the garage ready to enjoy.

Korey was an incredible father and grandfather. He was a loyal friend and would help anyone if he could.
