Corrine was of Cote First Nation. She grew up in Runnymede and attended school at Kamsack Victoria School, Kamsack Junior High and Yorkton Regional High School. Growing up, she loved looking after children in Runnymede and Togo. Later, she went to Richards Beauty School and took a course in hair dressing, and worked as a waitress at Bubbas, which she enjoyed. Corrine loved singing karaoke and being with friends. She had a wonderful, charismatic personality. 

Corrine was a strong person who never gave up, no matter what. Cory, Shailey, Brooklyn, Oliver, and the Tourangeau and Becking families would like to thank Corrine's doctors, Presade and Richardson and the staff at the Regina General Hospital Renal Unit as well as the drivers from the Regina Paratransit Service for taking such good care of Corrine for the past ten years.
