The Life of LaCorey
Mr. LaCorey Temari White, a man of intellect, creativity, and deep passion, transitioned on January 26, 2026, in Stillmore, Georgia.
LaCorey was born on May 6, 1990, in Jackson, Mississippi, to L.T. White and Bessie White. He was the outgoing and beloved “baby” of four children. He attended Emanuel County Institute in Twin City, Georgia, where he graduated with the Class of 2008.
From a young age, LaCorey displayed a natural gift for learning. His sharp mind gravitated toward science, history, and the logic of coding. While his family often imagined him working in a laboratory or leading groundbreaking research, LaCorey also found joy in creativity and simplicity. He mastered the art of skateboarding, found peace in watching a good movie, and expressed his love through cooking. He often shared his dream of becoming a professional chef, blending his scientific precision with his passion for flavor.
LaCorey was preceded in death by his father, L.T. White, and his grandfathers, L.C. White and Dave Brim.
LaCorey’s greatest legacy, however, is the love he had for his children and family. That love will live on through cherished memories and the lives he touched.
He leaves to cherish his memory: his loving mother, Mrs. Bessie White of Stillmore, Georgia; two grandmothers, Mrs. Josephine McGruder and Mrs. Rosie Lee White, both of Canton, Mississippi; his beautiful daughter, Leighton White, and his two brilliant sons, Rylin White and Remington White, all of Atlanta, Georgia; and his three siblings: Mrs. Lakiska Milledge (Donald) of Phoenix, Arizona; Mr. LaMarkius White (Teresa) of Vidalia, Georgia; and Mrs. Lavondria Kaur (Aman Singh) of Swainsboro, Georgia.
He also leaves a host of devoted uncles, aunts, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends, who were touched by his journey.
