WATERBURY - Cory King (Evans), age 41 of Waterbury, passed away peacefully surrounded by the love and comfort of his family at Yale New Haven Hospital after a 9 year courageous battle with cancer on Saturday, September 7, 2019. He was the fiance of Veronica James.

Cory was born in the Bronx, NY, the son of Nathaniel Evan and Florretta King-Evans both of the Bronx, NY.

Cory spent several years working as a Life Skills Instructor for Ability Beyond Disability where he met his fiancé Veronica and went to pursue his career working as an accountant for the Danbury News Times Newspaper.
