McBride, Corinne R. "Cori" (8 SEP 2001 – 15 JUL 2017)

Corinne R. “Cori” McBride, 15, Pardeeville, gained her angel wings on Saturday, July 15, 2017, at American Family Children’s Hospital due to brain injuries sustained from an ATV accident. Funeral services were held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, July 22, at United Community Methodist Church in Pardeeville. Rev. Kerry Wilson officiated.

Corrine Rose McBride was born on Sept. 8, 2001, in Portage, the daughter of Becky McBride and Sam McBride. She was about to begin her sophomore year at Pardeeville High School, where she was involved in FFA, played softball, and was a team member of her favorite sport, basketball. She was currently employed at Pride of America Campground, which she enjoyed so much. Cori loved spending time with her campground family, laughing and hanging out with friends, fishing, hunting, four-wheeling, and spending time with her favorite four-legged friend, her horse, “Sunshine.” Cori also adored her 9-month-old niece, RaeLynn, who was her pride and joy. Cori brought much joy and happiness to all of those she met, with her spunky personality and willingness to help others. She wanted to be an EMT and neonatal nurse when she got older. Cori’s wish for helping others carries on, as she was an organ donor, and her heart has gone to a person right here in Wisconsin. Although she lived a short life, it was full of fun, excitement and love.

Cori is survived by her parents: Becky McBride of Pardeeville and Sam (Lisa) McBride of Elk Mound; two sisters: Amanda (Pete) Dicken of Pardeeville and Brittany McBride of Marshfield; a brother, Adam Vrbsky of Pardeeville; her grandparents: Corky Vrbsky of Pardeeville, Ronald McBride of Granton, and Rosemary McBride of Neillsville; her aunts: Bobbie Preston of Florida and Rachel McBride of Neillsville; her nieces: Savannah McBride of Marshfield and RaeLynn Dicken of Pardeeville; her step-nieces: Alyssa and Alexis Dicken of Pardeeville; a step-nephew, Austin Dicken of Pardeeville; her step-brothers: Cody (Brandy) Potter, Colton Potter and Cadence Potter; a step-sister, Kara (Nikhom) Lao; step-nieces and step-nephews: Aniyah, Audrey, Olivia, Ambrosia and Leo; her godparents: Devin Sween, Nathan Stowell and Dan Lejman; many other cousins; and special friends Bekah Taylor and Sunshine.

She was preceded in death by her grandpa, Harold Vrbsky; her aunt and uncle, Ruth and John “Itch” Carlin; and her godmother, Nicole Smith.

Memorials may be made to the Ronald McDonald House in Madison.

Fly high, Cori, as you live on in others. We will all miss you and love you dearly.

— Love, Mom, Dad, Amanda and Adam.
