In 1987, Corina met and married her soulmate, Rod Zalesky. They were blessed with a daughter, Megan. Throughout the years, Corina worked at DSU, Funshine Express, and later at Brady Martz. Corina enjoyed reading, baking, camping, swimming, and being outdoors. In 2018, Mayo Clinic diagnosed Corina with pancreatic cancer. This obstacle resulted in many surgeries and procedures. In this journey, Corina was moved by caring, intelligent and empathetic people. She was forever grateful and blessed by all those who touched her life. Corina’s motto was “keep it simple,” especially after her diagnoses. She surrounded herself with positive people and made sure everyone felt included. Because Corina understood that ‘children are our future,’ she prioritized and appreciated them all dearly. Regardless of her circumstances, both in sickness and health, Corina’s faith was always a priority!
