Cora Mae is survived by her 4 children and spouses Phillip and Diane Hilton, Linda and Larry Leonard, Michael and Anne Hilton, and Susan and Brian Green. She is also survived by a sister, Margaret Sorey of Georgia. Cora Mae or Meemaw as she was affectionately called was a proud, caring, and loving grandmother to 12 grandchildren, Diana and David Brock, Nathan and Tania Hilton, Phillip and Beth Hilton, Mirinda Hilton, Colleen and Clint Franks, Kristen and James Westerfield, Kevin Leonard, Caitlyn and David Nunez, Megan and Frank Morrison, Dustin Willard Hilton, Jason Michael Hilton, Brian Matthew Slauzis; 19 great-grandchildren, Adam Shaun Brock, Cammie Marie McCreesh, Caleb Ray Hilton, Greyson Richard Hilton, Madelyn Josephin Hilton, Allison Grace Nelson, Abigail Nicole Hilton, Anna Grace Sophia Hilton, Jonathan Evin Westerfield, Jeremy Ethan Westerfield, Jackson Eddy Westerfield, Kayla Marie Westerfield, Clint Franks Jr., Chloe Franks, Lily Machelle Nunez, Ty Henry Nunez, Ryan Henry Morrison, Cameron Jay Morrison, and Zoe Renee Slauzis; and 2 great-great grandchildren, Olivia Jane Brock and Liam Brock McCreesh. There was nothing that would light her face up more than to see one of her grandkids come walking through the door, her family was her life and she loved every one of them with all her heart. She made it a ritual to purchase a ceramic bootie for each of her 33 grandchildren when they were born and wouldn't rest till she knew it was in their possession. Cora Mae took great pleasure in preparing large meals and having her family there to enjoy it with her. She will be sorely missed by family, friends, and neighbors. A funeral service to celebrate Cora Mae's life will be held on Wednesday, November 22, 2017 at 11 a.m. in Loving Funeral Home Churchland Chapel. Interment will follow in Meadowbrook Memorial Gardens in Suffolk. The family will receive friends on Tuesday evening from 6:30 -8:00 p.m. at the funeral home.
