Story by Steve "Centaur" Wilson
I worked with Correy in the WVC dive program, as most of us had, but the first time I went diving with him outside the dive class I took him to my favorite dive spot, Wharf #2 near the Monterey Harbor. As we weaved our way through the pilings I looked back at him and he was beaming from ear to ear as though he had just discover the lost city of Atlantis, or at least the city of gold...hehehe!!! I love the area because diversity of life, being the biologist I am, and when we got back to shore he had salvaged two or three rods and reels he wanted to refurbish, thus I found out why he was smiling so wide...he had found his favorite underwater emporium....HAHAHA!! Well we went back another day this time we took Mikey Teng, Lindsy, and Pete, and between he and Mikey they salvaged about half a dozen rods and reels. They wanted to go back for a second sweep, but it was late in the day so we decided to pursue the other favorite pastime of divers...EATING...HAHAHA!!!

Thanks Steve, err... Centaur. We always enjoy the diving stories and never can get enough of them. A nice glimpse into a world we were scarcely privy to.
Steve, THANK YOU, your one of the many treasures Correy found in the diving community, we are comforted by knowing about all of you and the adventures you had with Correy. He is dearly missed, our family is blessed to have his legacy.
