If you had the pleasure of knowing Chip, you knew his love was motorcycles. He enjoyed traveling, especially when it involved boating, fishing, hunting, and playing golf-essentially anything outdoors. Chip had such a generous heart and made donations to several charities. He loved his family and he also had a large adopted family that loved him.
He was preceded in death by his father, Merrill McCorkle. Left to cherish his memories are mother, Minnie Lou Goodman McCorkle of Snellville, GA; sister, Faye McCorkle of Lilburn, GA; aunts, Rachel Overcash and husband Ben, Winifred Hall, and Lalla Faye Goodnight; and numerous cousins.
