Gregory Dale Corum, age 56, of Middlesboro, Kentucky, went home to be with the Lord on September 19, 2023.
He was born in Claiborne County on April 1, 1967 to the late Roger Dale Corum and Joyce Marsee Short who survives.
In addition to his father, he was preceded in death by his father and mother-in-law, Elvert and Elizabeth Wilson, grandparents Effie Kate and Bill Corum, and long-time friend and co-worker Terry Seals.
Greg enjoyed spending time on the lake, fishing, and especially spending time with his family and his beloved dog, Penny. Many know him through his work with Cumberland Heating and Air – a job that he loved to do. His co-workers, Kelly (Toni) Seals, Chris Gulley, Austin Jackson, Parker Uhl, Joe Williams and Adam Hurst were his friends whom Greg thought of more like family. He also loved getting to meet and know all the people he served through his work. Greg loved the Lord and was a member of Summey’s Bridge Missionary Baptist Church. Whether you knew Greg as family, friend, or simply as your “heat and air guy”, he made a lasting impact and will forever be remembered and missed.
