I had the pleasure of working for and with Corky at the Trustees from 2007-2013. He truly was one of New Castle's greatest supporters and stewards. Of all the many talents and abilities he had, the one that resonated most with me was his skill as a diplomat and negotiator. The man could have been Secretary of State or an ambassador at the U.N.! On several occasions when challenging or controversial projects or decisions came up, I watched him as he carefully considered the issue, weighed alternatives, decided upon what he thought was the correct course, and quietly lobbied for his position on an individual basis with Trustee board members. The man was masterful! Always quiet, dignified and thoughtful. I enjoyed every single meeting where he would carefully select just the right tie and the right pair of glasses for that evening. He knew I liked cats, so he came back from his many trips abroad with some wonderful photos of cats of the world. An extraordinary human being.
