CRSD

CRSD Mondays. Each Monday, we highlight a story that reflects our values: Composure, Resilience, Self-Discipline, and Determination.
Those who share their stories receive a CRSD coin - earned, never bought - symbolizing the resolve to overcome and prevail, no matter how dark things get.
Today, we are proud to introduce Corey, aka @coreykwilliams as the 27th recipient of the coin.
Here is his story:

« March 28th, 2025 I suffered a stroke during a basic surgical procedure to remove a bunch of lipomas. My life was dramatically impacted as I had left side deficits that affected walking, driving, speech, etc. Anxiety and depression sets in and life feels dark and heavy.

Thankfully through family, hardcore, and motorcycles, I had an incredible support system. I’ve been Straight Edge for 34 years now and played in many bands but Carry On, Piece by Piece and Internal Affairs are the more notable ones. Harley tech for 14 years at Nassau Harley.

25 years after Carry On broke up, we decided to reunite. I couldn’t play guitar and had to reteach myself to play which was probably the best PT for my hand, heart, and mind.

2026 I played a couple shows with PBP and Carry On. The healing it has done to my mental state is priceless. So fortunate to play with Nick Todd Ryan and Greg again and having it feel better than it ever did.

As for motorcycles, hopefully one day I’ll be back on 2 wheels for personal enjoyment. Still too many mental and physical road blocks, but hoping that will change with time.

Shout out to Chris Brodie Scott and the Saviors Crew for always checking in on me. Greg Flack and Dennis McDonald for the endless phone calls. And to my incredible wife Pam that gives me the strength to push on.

Thank you CRSD for sharing these stories! »
