Corbin Grey Lipson has left this world. Corbin passed away peacefully in the arms of his mother at home on July 5, 2018. He was 4 years old.
Corbin is survived by his parents, David and Nicole Lipson; his sister, Autumn Lipson; and his uncle, Denis Wojtan.
Corbin was born on March 20, 2014. He had 10 months of perfect health before he became ill. He survived two cardiac arrests at 11 months. It was shortly after that he was diagnosed with a terminal mitochondrial disease.
It was a lifelong struggle, but Corbin fought every day.
Corbin had a stoic personality. He was hard to make laugh, but that just added to the joy when he did.
Some of his favorite things were Llama Llama books, slamming doors and making a mess.
His favorite time of day was sitting between his mommy and daddy watching his favorite shows before bed.
Corbin was very loving, and if you were lucky, you were able to experience one of his cuddle hugs or arm pets.
Corbin was a regular at Levine Children’s Hospital in Charlotte, where he became fond of the staff and volunteers.
To know Corbin was to love him. Everyone commented on his long eyelashes and cherubic face.
The world was a better place for having him. He will be greatly missed by anyone lucky enough to have known him.
If love could have saved him, he would have lived forever.
A memorial service will be announced at a later date.
Ivie Funeral Home, Murphy, is in charge of arrangements.
