Corey Lane Ashmore

Memorial service for Corey Lane Ashmore will be 3 p.m., Friday, February 25, 2022, at Riverwood Family, with a private family committal service to follow. Visitation is from 2 p.m. until the time of service.

Mr. Corey Lane Ashmore, 39, was born January 12, 1983, in McComb, MS.

Corey enjoyed fishing, golfing, and spending time with his nieces. He was a huge fan of sports, especially baseball and basketball. His passion was collecting baseball cards.

He was a 2001 graduate of Brookhaven High School and majored in sports management at the University of Southern Mississippi. Through the years, he worked in the oil and gas industry and in heavy equipment construction.

Preceding him in death are his mother, Laurie Thornhill; grandfathers, James Ashmore and David Cain; and grandmother, Geraldine Ashmore.

Those left to cherish his memory are his father, Larry Ashmore; brother, Warren Ashmore; sister, Karen Crum and husband, Dusty; nieces, Marli Crum, Maelin Crum, and Mallory Crum, whom he loved dearly; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and a host of friends.

Corey never met a stranger, always had a smile on his face, a listening ear, and a hug to share. His laughter was contagious. He will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved him. As family and friends grieve his passing, take comfort in knowing that to be absent in body is to be present with the Lord and that Corey is now at peace.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that all memorials be made to Broken Lives Ministry, 7314 Will Robbins Hwy, Nettleton, mS 38858, in honor of Corey and in celebration of his life.

    Larry, I was heart-broken to hear of Corey’s passing. I, along with all his “recovery brothers” at The Extra Mile loved and enjoyed Corey!
    He was a sweetheart, and a ray of sunshine.
    Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.
