Ionia Sentinel Standard, 9 Mar 2002

Jerene “Corky” M. Collier, 76, of Lake Odessa, peacefully entered the presence 
of his Lord on Thurs., March 7, 2002 at his home.  Jerene was born Aug. 24, 
1925 in Sunfield to Ervin and Mina (Gilbert) Collier.  He had lived in the Lake 
Odessa area most of his life.  Corky married Charlotte Petrie of Sunfield on 
Jan. 21, 1950.

of God’s family since the age of 16.  Corky graduated from Lake Odessa High 
School in 1944, and had worked as a custodian for Lakewood Schools until his 
retirement in 1984.  Since retirement, he worked for Lake Manor for three and 
one half years until illness forced him to retire again.  Jerene had been a 
wonderful husband and a faithful servant of his Lord.

He is survived by Charlotte, his loving wife of 52 years; and several nieces 
and nephews.  He was preceded in death by his parents; his brother, Plynn 
Collier; and his sister, Joyce Munson.
