The past 2 years he has been a resident at Seacrest Retirement Center. We would like to thank from the bottom of our hearts to the entire staff for taking such good care of him and making it his home. He developed a special bond with Louis which he considered him to be his third grandson who took such good care of his Poppy. Who ever met Papa Corky fell in love with him instantly.
