Lawrence Corley

Lawrence Corley, born September 20, 1967, in South Carolina, entered eternal rest on September 5, 2025. He grew up in New York and made Cameron, North Carolina his home in 2009.

Lawrence was the beloved son of the late Clarence Corley (January 2001) and Mary Corley of Cameron, NC. He is survived by his loving sisters, Beverly Drinks of Spartanburg, SC, and Kathey Spencer of Sanford, NC; his brother Clarence “Whistle” Corley of New York; and his brother-in-law Michael Spencer of Sanford, NC.

Lawrence had a deep love for the Lord and an unshakable devotion to gospel music. His impressive collection of CDs and tapes reflected not just his passion, but his joy in worship. He was a man of many talents an artist who enjoyed drawing and creating his own birthday cards, and a true collector who could always tell you exactly where to find each treasured item.
Known for his sharp sense of style, Lawrence was unforgettable when dressed in his suits always polished, always standing out. He was truly one of a kind.

Although Lawrence did not have children of his own, he was a proud and devoted uncle to his nieces and nephews: Daracheo “Rach” Corley, Dashawn Corley, Shanna Corley, Eugena Corley, Monique Gillis, Delisa Spencer, Christopher Corley, Michael Spencer Jr., and Takiyah Mazyck. He also leaves behind 13 grand-nieces and nephews, and one great-grandniece, all of whom brought him great joy.

Lawrence’s life was filled with love, faith, creativity, and style. He will be remembered for his kind spirit, unique personality, and the special ways he touched everyone around him. His memory will forever live in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
