Wow...I'm still in disbelief...I, on many occasions, witnessed Cory be so good with fans and kids. His friends were always a priority to him and he made them feel important. I will miss this man and his kindness. God bless his family and inner circle.
Our prayers go out to the Lidle Family may God be with you at this very difficult time.
MY smypathy goes out to the family. I hope he went quickly and straight to yankee heaven. God be with him and all his family.
Had so much to live for .....with regards
R.I.P.

WE lost an area representative, the YANKEES a pitcher, and most importantly his FAMILY lost a father, husband, son, etc.

Cory Lidle was a talented baseball player, but more importantly was a great human being.
He always showed his professionalism on and off the field and made it a point to stop in and say hello from time to time.
Our prayers go out to the entire Lidle family. Cory was a great player, but more importantly a great person on and off the field.
