Beloved husband and best friend of Terry (Lagatdu) Corcoran. Dear father of Jody and Tammy Corcoran, Jerry and Cathy Corcoran, and Sean Corcoran, all of Listowel. Grandfather of Cody, Samantha, Jesse, Jereelyn, Kayla, Ally, Casey, and Shauna, and great-grandfather of Dominic. Brother of Carson Webb, Clayton Corcoran, Joanne Toews, and Michael Corcoran.

Jake enjoyed music, especially playing the guitar and piano for his friends and family. He was an entertainer at heart. Whether it be singing songs or telling those jokes that brought his family to tears, he always knew how to please a crowd. Honing his culinary skills in the navy, his cooking was no exception to this characteristic. He always made sure to practice perfection when it came to keeping the ones he loved happy.

A Celebration of Jake’s Life will be held at the Royal Canadian Legion, Listowel on Sunday, January 31st from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m., with a Legion Memorial Service at 2:00 p.m. followed by words of remembrance at 2:15 p.m. Memorial donations to Listowel Memorial Hospital Foundation would be appreciated, and may be made through the Eaton Funeral Home, Listowel.
