He demonstrated this in the great love he has for his wife and children, and family members whom he also called, "friends."  Whether doing dinner out on, "Friday Free Night," camping and boating or family bike rides, it was always an adventure. His girls' description of their daddy; "a great man, caring, loving, inspiring, a great explorer who loved the outdoors, always in a rush, loved the dirt and mowing, made hard decisions and didn't like to paint."Corvin's life expression and passion was also to help people. Often first in line, his willingness was equipped with an uncanny know-how to repair, remodel, reconstruct or resurrect, things mechanical, engines, homes or farmscapes. He was found, in living and in dying, helping. Considered the "best friend" of many, Cork leaves an impression in hearts and minds to never be forgotten.  Condolences may be left at www.mountmoriahterracepark.comArrangements under the direction of Mount Moriah Terrace Park Funeral Homea; 801 N.W. 108th Street; Kansas City, MO.
