Memories of Broken Glass

By: Spencer Wider


Change the shutter speed
For it's all we need
We will take the lead (and)
Plant this funeral seed

As these quivering lips shake
Remembering all the ones who were fake
This dead weight weighs me down
For the times we had in this messed up town

I'm writing a eulogy for your apology
And pull you out from this death
This friendship doesn't end

Grasp onto my shaking hand
It's not fair to have to let you go
In pictures the tears will show
Inside jokes that no one knows
The definition of a great friend should go.

Five Years?!?! Really has it been so long since I was entertained by your humor or bored by your rambling...I do have to admit you were right, Snatch is still one of my favorite movies! I can still remember the last time we spoke, I called you New Years Day and made you promise we would hang out soon and we never really did. It has giving me perspective though, not to waste time or take any friendships for granted. We all miss you!! You will never be forgotten.

No matter how much time passes please know that we will never forget Corey. My thoughts and prayers are with you today and everyday.

Though Corey and I never really talked, he is forever present in my nursing life. I was a nurse that took care of Corey while he was in the ICU and still continue to be amazed by the entire Siebert family. You go into nursing hoping that you will be able to change people's lives, to comfort them, to teach them, and just generally be there for them. Corey's life and family taught me more in the short time that I was around them than they could ever know. Even after all this time, thoughts of Corey will pop into my head while caring for a patient. The courage that he showed and the devotion of his family and friends was an awesome thing to behold. No matter how long I continue to work here at St. John's I will never forget Corey, the Siebert family, or the many long nights that I spent silenting watching his vitals outside 476 bed 8. I hope that life is well in the Siebert world and just want to say thanks again for the small life lessons that you and Corey taught to one slightly new RN.

I just discovered this website. I knew Corey from Band. I was Drew's lab partner in AP Bio and graduated with him. I remember Corey as a magnetic,energetic, and all around friendly guy. He always had a smile on his face. The world lost a great guy when Corey left us. I unfortunately found out about his death after his service; I was heartbroken. I wanted to say goodbye and show my support to the family. I sit here remembering Corey and am close to tears. The memories are good ones; many of them are from Band camp. I miss you, Corey. I take comfort in knowing that you are watching down on us and we will see you again one day. Corey was truely a special and unique individual. His spirit lives on through our memories and in our hearts.

I have to say this new site is amazing. I am so glad that there are more pictures of Corey. I can't believe that is coming up on 4 years. It is crazy where life takes you in that amount of time. Corey holds a special place in my heart and I could never forget him. Or the joy that he brought to so many people. I miss him very much and think of him often. To the entire Siebert Family, I miss you all as well. I hope you have a wonderful Holiday. Take care! Love, Andrea
