I rejoice that Cory knew the Lord. I am sorry for our loss but know we shall see Cory again without sorrow, sickness, broken hearts, but we shall see him in his new body and he in ours. Just one more reason to go to heaven. I highly recommend Bishop Charles Grisham’s message “Fruit of Brokenness” if you are trying to find a reason why the Lord called Cory home.
God Bless You.
I have never met Cory but one day I will in heaven and I am pretty sure I will have to stand in line. Of course Cory will be the one worshipping and praising Jesus. He has fought a good fight. He has won. I heard him preach at the men’s conference this year. His sermon has so impacted me. His fight has encouraged me to fight this good fight, stay the course, keep the faith.
This just really touched me cause I have been online since about 1995 and following the family as I can. He was the same age as my oldest daughter. I am so sorry for his beautiful wife and children. I hope they are making it ok. Will be keeping them in prayer. God Bless Sister Mattie Qualls
We were really touched by the funeral that we got to see on line, So Sorry we could not come. He was a great man of God. We will be praying for the family.. He fought a good fight. He has finished his course! He will be missed. God bless you Jill and children..Robert & Cona(McCool) Blaylock of Masssillon, Ohio.
I was honored to watch the funeral on youtube and pray that I will have left behind such a wonderful testimony of the power of Jesus that my friends and family will dance for joy as his family did for him. It is the joy of knowing he has rested with Christ, and it is in our dance that we find joy for our sorrow. Thank you McCool family for never letting down on the standard and for waving it proudly in the face of defeat and death.
I was inspired by the video of he funeral. Praise God we have WON!!!!
I did’nt know Brother McCool, but let me tell you I wish I could have, listening to Brother and Sister McCools singing has blessed me so much. and reading about brother McCool has really encouraged and inspired me to live more for God and to live harder.
God Bless.
