Obituary of Corey Michael Shaw

Corey Michael Shaw, a vibrant soul with striking blue eyes and a smile that could light up a room, passed away peacefully in the early hours of December 1, 2024, at the age of 42, after a courageous battle with his health. Born on September 22, 1982, in Minneapolis, MN, to Susan Elizabeth Baxter and Jeff Michael Shaw. Corey was a true original, with his bright blonde hair and magnetic personality, he was instantly recognizable and impossible to forget.

A social butterfly at heart, Corey cherished the moments spent with his friends and family. He was happiest when hosting gatherings, exploring shorelines in search of the perfect rock, or losing himself in the tranquility of the woods while camping. His adventurous spirit led him to Albuquerque, NM, for a time, though he ultimately made his home in Saginaw, Michigan. Corey's passion for learning ignited at Central New Mexico Community College, where he earned degrees in electrical wiring and photovoltaic installation, skills he used to bring light and warmth to the world around him.

Corey leaves behind a legacy of love and laughter. He is survived by his beloved children, Aura and Cedar Shaw and their mother Jocelyn Weisenberger; his loving sister, Lauren Shaw; and brothers, Brett and Bryce Goodman; his devoted aunt, Debbie Boyer (Shaw) and Janet Atwood (Baxter); and his cousins, Dave Atwood, Emily Atwood (Zwirek), Jesse Baxter, and Cole Baxter. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

A memorial service to celebrate Corey's life will be held on Sunday, December 15, 2024, at 2:00 PM, at the American Legion Post #439, 5190 Weiss St., Saginaw, MI 48603.
