Corina was an optimistic person, and very empathetic, a strong woman of faith, who loved her cokes. She loved her sons and daughters very much. Her passions included making sure everyone was cared for and her Lifetime movies. She was passionate about her job and all of the friends that she had made, delivering them their meals, and making sure they were taken care of just like family.

She greatly cherished her time by meditating, by praying her rosary, and reading her bible. She loved Lay’s potato chips and Hershey chocolate bars. Though she would never admit to it, she truly loved and enjoyed her animals, Stella, Nora, Tamiko, Fluffy, and Dusty.
