Obituary for Corrine Louise Atkins

"Ann, Arlene, Robin and families,\r\nI cannot count how many times in the past years I have said to myself I want to and must call Corrinne \u201cthis week.\u201d Then didn\u2019t. I could mention all my reasons, but they don\u2019t matter. There are trials and challenges in all our lives. But I am deeply regretting not talking with her. She was my babysitter as a toddler, a loving aunt, a wonderful person, community and church member, employee, wife, mom and daughter: which makes her the best of humanity. I loved her laugh, her interest in others, her determination to do whatever was needed. She will live in my spirit as she always has. I think of you all too. Sorry to be such an absent cousin. \r\nWe do have 2 spare bedrooms in our \u201cretirement\u201d house near Ft. Collins, CO. (One twin bed and a double.) So text or call if you plan a CO trip. We have been and will continue to be the after school and dance class\/swim lesson drivers for our now 2nd grade grand-daughter, so not traveling much ourselves. \r\nI will send a check today for Corrinne\u2019s memorial fund. I\u2019ll use her house address. "
