With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved son, Corey Lee. He resided in McKeesport with his mother, Yvette Manley. He was taken away from us way too soon, on April 3, 2025, at the tender age of 21.
Corey was a young, hardworking man who was always striving to be a better person today than he was yesterday. He had an infectious smile that could light up a whole room. Those who knew him will remember him for his loving, caring, and kind-hearted nature. He had a rare gift for making others smile and laugh and leaving an impact on all who crossed his path.
