Corinne M. Vesely

Obituary's Biography:

Corinne M Vesely, 77, went to her eternal glory, surrounded by the Angels and Saints, on April 13, 2022 at her daughters’ farm in Kentucky. Her daughter was blessed to be present at the time of her death.

Corinne is survived by her daughter, Cherie (Robert) Griffin, and her grandchildren Joshua Devitt, Javon Devitt and Lauren Griffin. Corinne is also survived by very special nieces Kristin Miks and Karen (Loren) Semler and many beloved great-nieces and great-nephews, and dear cousins.

Corinne was born on August 12, 1944 to Joseph and Mildred Vesely in Chicago where she became big sister to Alice Vesely and Gene (Pam) Vesely. As a girl, the family came to Wildwood and St. Gilbert Parish and she resided there until 2019. Corinne spent the last years of her life giggling, dancing and playing with her family in Kentucky.

Corinne spent her life loving her family and dedicated to her Catholic faith through many ministries as well as a steadfast prayer life. She was a nurse by profession, caring for patients at both Condell and St. Therese hospitals-including the Hospice program when it first opened in the 1980s.  She spent years gathering data for the family tree and leaves many completed pages dating through five generations.
