HON. FREDERICA S. WILSON
of florida
in the house of representatives
Ms. WILSON of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of a truly remarkable individual, Officer Steven Corley. I include in the Record the following proclamation:
Whereas, Steven Frederick Corley's journey began on
September 8, 1972, in Miami, Florida, born to Frederick
“Freddie” Corley and Priscilla Bush. He was a product of
Miami-Dade County Schools as a graduate of Miami Norland
Senior High's 1990 class. After graduating, he served in the
United States Army; and
Whereas, Officer Corley got his start in law enforcement
with the Florida Department of Corrections from 1996 to 1998.
He went on to start a career with the Miami Dade Police
Department in 1998 working in the Carol City District. Years
later, he became a part of the Strategic & Specialized
Investigations Bureau in 2007. His final assignment was with
the Street Terror Offender Program (STOP). He was able to
investigate some of the county's most violent crimes. This
work led him to receive numerous awards; and
Whereas, Officer Corley leaves to mourn his wife of 19
years, Trinese Corley; Children, Ryan Corley, Queenesha
Corley, and Queneetra Corley; Grandchildren: Jasmine Corley
and Martravius Smikle, Jr.; Mother: Priscilla Bush; and
Now, therefore, be it resolved that I, Frederica S. Wilson,
a Member of the United States House of Representatives
representing the 24th Congressional District of Florida, am
honored to recognize the late Officer Steven Corley,
celebrating his remarkable life and legacy of service,
leadership, and brotherhood, and committing to honor his
memory by continuing to uphold the principles for which he so
passionately advocated.
