Gwen was born on February 17, 1944 and passed away on March 15, 2022. She was preceded in death by her parents, James Robert Corry Sr. and Maxine Wicks; brother and sister-in-law, Jim and Diane Corry; sister-in-law, Becky Corry; sister-in-law, Sandra Gay Humphries.

Gwen was special, a sweet soul never bound by age or other factors. She possessed a beautiful childlike joy and purity throughout her life that never faded and blessed us all.

She was seldom seen without the “Gwen” smile that stretched from ear to ear. Gwen was sincerely happy to see you, hug you, and visit with you. You simply couldn’t know her without experiencing her contagious joy.

She held onto a few true loves in her life: all things Elvis, Disney, and the most immaculate coloring book work you’ve ever laid eyes on. But what she held on to best was greeting each person with her warm embrace. Gwen did not just wrap you in her arms, she wrapped you in love and peace. If more of us could hug like she did, smile like she did, and love like she did….the world would look much different.

Survivors include her brother, Thomas Allen Corry; half-sister, Libby Corry Parish (David); brother-in-law, Burl Humphries; nephews, Bryan Corry, Kyle Parish, Eric Humphries (Tammy), and Cliff Humphries; nieces, Sandy Corry Whitewater (David), and Kim Spencer; and great nephews and nieces, Morgan Jackson (Jared), Kelsey Pendergraff, Caleb Burns (Cassidy), Cory Jacob Robinson, Brady, Braxton and Zoey Burns.

The family would like to extend a special thanks to all the caregivers and friends of the Guest House and The Oaks.
