Cory was an amazing father, one of a kind. Everyone’s children loved him. His intense playfulness and loving nature made him a secondary Dad to his children’s friends, and the kids of Melody Drive. He was in fact just a giant kid. Cory’s children adored him. He leaves behind his three sons, Cory, Jordan and Eric and two daughters, Madeleine and Bella, as well as his special niece, Abby. Cory was predeceased by his beautiful baby angel Luca (Nash).
Cory loved all women but only one princess held his heart completely. He married his main squeeze Krista 10 years ago, although they were sweethearts for 18 years and will be soulmates forever. Theirs was a most special love, the envy of all who knew them.
Cory was predeceased by his mother, Lynn (Nash), grandmother Nan Kathleen (Jacklyn) and twin sister, Darcy (Nash) a.k.a. his Partner in Crime. They are surely doing something outrageous at this very moment. Cory is survived by his father, George, sister, Stacey and brother, Troy. Cory worshipped his older sister, Stacey most of all (according to her). There is no further evidence of this so we just have to take her word for it.
Cory’s beliefs centered around happiness, smiling, laughing and taking no moments for granted. He was the life of the party, even when there was no party. Cory had many close friends but shared a particularly beautiful bond with his neighbours, Budweiser, and cheap red wine (the subject of interesting rumours over the years – hey, no judgment….love wears many faces).
Cory was loved by so many people. He leaves behind an enormous family of Nashs who will carry on his memory. Cory dearly loved his niece, Lynn and nephews, Cory and Taylor and wanted full and happy lives for them. His father-in-law Loren, mother-in-law Joanne, sister-in-law Lianne and brother-in-law Mark will also try to imprint a bit of Perry under the weight of such enormous Nash branding. That’s a tough one but they’ll give it their best shot!
A service celebrating Cory’s life will be held at JA Snow Funeral Home at 339 Lacewood Drive, Halifax on Saturday, October 18, 2014 at 2 pm. Cremation has already taken place. A visitation will take place on Friday, October 17, 2014 from 2-4pm and 7-9pm.
