Cory C Bullard

Sep 29, 1986 — Aug 19, 2017

Cory passed away at age 30 in Brockton, MA.

Cory had just celebrated 2 years of sobriety, but like others trying to manage this life-long chronic disease, Cory had a single relapse, which ultimately took his life. Like so many other individuals suffering from this disease of addiction Cory was intelligent, well educated, funny, caring, and compassionate. He had worked so hard over the past two years of his life to overcome the disease and get his life back on track. He began enjoying life again; hiking, fishing, family events, and being with friends. He went back to college and received his accreditation for substance abuse counseling. Armed with this new knowledge and his own personal experiences and struggles with this disease, Cory felt he was well-positioned to help many others who shared his disease. Sadly, two days before he was to embark on his new career as a substance abuse counselor, he slipped, and it cost him his life. As his family and friends, it is our hope to continue the path of recovery and hope that Cory was on and to help others who suffer every day from this disease.

May the good Lord shine a light on you

Make every song you sing your favorite tune

May the good Lord shine a light on you

Warm like the evening sun

Angels beating all their wings in time

With smiles on their faces and a gleam right in their eyes

Whoa, thought I heard one sigh for you

Come on up, come on up now, come on up now
