Delaine was born Geneva May Clay on August 21, 1934 to Ira William and Effie Vanzo Clay in Okemah, Oklahoma. She was the youngest of six children. Her mother died when she was a baby and she was adopted by Jack James and Alma Caroline Finks on February 5, 1935 and was known as Delaine Kay “Corky” Finks. Her Daddy Jack gave her the nickname “Corky” because of a cork-screw curl she had on the top of her head. She grew up with her adopted brother Jack in Oklahoma and became a teacher. She moved to California in the early 60s where she met and married Ronald Homer Verbryke on November 3, 1962. They purchased a home and raised a family in Santa Maria, California. She continued to teach first grade for a number of years and was a stay-at-home mother to her two children.


Corky and Ron bought nine acres in Bunch, Oklahoma and moved from California in the early 80s. They were an active part of Jesus Outreach Church and enjoyed spending time with family in California, Oklahoma and Ohio. Corky moved to Muskogee after her husband died to be closer to her daughter. She never met a stranger and had many friends everywhere she went.


Delaine Kay “Corky” Verbryke passed away peacefully in her sleep August 7, 2019. She was 84 years old.
