Carl Corman, Jr.

A limb has fallen from the Corman Family Tree. Carl Corman, Jr. joined his beloved wife Ruby in eternal rest on Saturday, Aug. 12.  His family will be remembering the best times, the laughter, and the good life they shared.  They will continue his heritage and traditions as they continue their lives.  Carl, who was affectionately called “Unk” by many, was a native of Jessamine County born Nov. 11, 1926, to the late Carl, Sr. and Lucy Jacobs Corman.  He served his country in the US Army in the Korean War, was a retired employee of the Jessamine County Road Department and an avid farmer who loved raising tobacco. He could often be found plowing his fields until the early morning hours after his work at the road department, as well as tending to his cows, going at least twice a day on his John Deer Gator to check on them.  He has been described as a hard working, honest, and loving family man and enjoyed coming to town to meet with his friends and catch up on the local news.  His sons-in-law received much teasing as he always gave them a hard time and told them he was keeping an eye on them.  Carl loved to attend the Nicholasville United Methodist Church, not missing a Sunday. No matter of how he was feeling, he seemed to improve on Sunday so he could attend.  He leaves to cherish his memories his children Carlotta Isaac, husband Calvin, Clay Thomas “Corky” Corman, wife Jane, Tammy Lynn Horton, husband George, Lucindy Cartwright, husband David, and Angelia Davis, husband Rodney, 13 grandchildren Micheal Stephens, husband Brian, J. W. Corman, Derek Shane Isaac, Tommy Corman, wife Sydney, Christopher Corman, Lynn McCullar, Brent McCullar, Grant MCCullar, Joseph Cartwright, wife Sherri, Kristin Mae Cartwright, Greg McClean, Jeffrey McClean, and Ethan Stewart, wife Lori, 11 great grandchildren, a brother Clay Corman, and special nephew Jackie Corman, along with several other nieces and nephews.  He was preceded in death by a grandson Steven Cartwright, brother Jay Corman, and sisters-in-law Bernice Corman and Maudie B. Corman.  A Remembrance Service will be 1:00 PM Wednesday, Aug. 16, at Hager & Cundiff Funeral Home. He will be laid to rest beside his wife in Maple Grove Cemetery.  Honoring him as pallbearers will be his grandsons.  Honorary bearers will be Terry Lunsford, Terry Logan Lunsford, Ricky Aldridge, Willie Reed, Mark Reed, Jackie Corman, Brian Stephens, Nathan Hardin and Carl’s sons-in-laws.  The family will greet friends starting at 2:00 PM and ending at 8:00 PM on Tuesday, Aug.15, at the funeral home.  Hager & Cundiff Funeral Home is honored to serve Carl’s family.
