__Corey Ethan Thrasher was born to Robyn and Charles Thrasher in Cincinnati, Ohio. From a young age, Corey was active, full of life, and had a love for football. He played football throughout his childhood and continued playing through high school.__

__Corey attended Mount Healthy High School and later graduated from Diamond Oaks, where he earned his education in Culinary Arts. Corey was also a dedicated employee of Kraft Heinz and a member of New Life Missionary Baptist Church.__

__Corey was a son, father, brother, family man, and friend. He was the kind of person who could walk into a room and make his presence known. Funny, hardworking, outgoing, and always dressed in the flyest clothes, Corey had a personality that was impossible to forget. He was popular, well-loved, and had a way of making people laugh and creating memories wherever he went. He carried his passion for cooking throughout his life and took pride in his ability to bring people together through good food and good times. He was loved by many, known by many, and truly one of a kind.__

__One of Corey’s greatest passions was riding motorcycles. Riding wasn’t a simple hobby for Corey, it was part of who he was.
