Please share a memory of Herbert to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
On June 30 we lost our beloved patriarch Herbert Charles Corser, 89, of Binghamton NY. Herb passed away at his home surrounded by his loving family. Herbert was predeceased by his parents Virgil and Mary Corser; an infant son, Joseph; sisters Marion( Eddie )Williams ; Dorine ( Bill) Karis ; Geraldine ( John ) Shanley ; Katherine ( Steve ) Caletka ; Ellen (Richard ) Garrett ; brothers : Frank, Jack and Raymond (Georgiana), brother-in-law, Joe Guinane; a son-in-law David Mann. He is survived by his loving wife of 67 years, Mary Louise ; children , Daniel Corser, Sheryl O'Brien, Eileen Mann, David (Jennifer) Corser, Maureen ( Scott ) Singer; his sister Patricia Guinane; Grandchildren, Kelly, Kerry, Kevin, Cara, Max, Mylea, Mara ; Great Grandchildren; Shana, Liam, Aaron, Brock and Logan; several nieces and nephews Herb was a lifelong resident of Binghamton NY, and a well-loved member of our community. He was a 1948 graduate of St. Paul's High School, where he developed lasting friendships and where he also demonstrated his basketball prowess. He proudly served in the Navy during the Korean War. Following his service, he enjoyed a long career as a salesman in the Broome County region, where he frequently amused those along his route with his skilled wit and humor. Herb established many neighborhood friendships with a simple wave and hello, often while enjoying front porch quality time with Mom. Moments they both treasured. Herb was an individual who set the bar very high, there was no quitting during this ride - if he had an opportunity to help someone in need, he didn't miss a beat, he was there to lend a hand. Dad was an extremely dedicated member of St. Patrick's Church, where he faithfully ushered throughout his entire adult life (our Sunday's were not complete until he provided us all with the attendance count after each mass). Dad took great pride in his service to the church; and he valued his friendships with so many parishioners. He was proud of each and every member of his family, and loved unconditionally. Dad was a caretaker to the very end. We have lost one of the most generous, loving individuals to walk this earth, Herbert will be missed dearly - and we cherish every moment we were blessed to have him with us. A Funeral Mass will be offered at St. Patrick's Church, corner of Oak and Leroy Streets, Binghamton, Saturday at 9:30 a.m. Burial will be in Calvary Cemetery, Johnson City, Monday at 12 noon. The family will receive friends at the J.A. McCormack Sons Funeral Home, 141 Main Street, Binghamton, Friday from 4 to 6 p.m. Expressions of sympathy in Herb's memory may be made to St. Patrick's Church, 9 Leroy Street, Binghamton, NY 13905.
