Corene attended Temple High School with the Class of 1960. She married Terry H. Fletcher on November 14, 1959. She was married  for 43 years until his passing in 2003. Their marriage added to his large loving family.

Corene loved the Lord from an early age, spending her early years singing in church with her sisters and teaching Sunday School when her children were young.  She loved her family unconditionally with all of her heart. She worked in the Bastrop County courthouse as a legal secretary for 19 years. She started singing at an early age playing jamborees and hoedowns in the early 1950s. She would later teach herself to play her Yamaha guitar that followed her to family events and on-stage performances for all to love. She went on to record  songs written by her sister-in-law Wanda that still ring true today. Her love of music was passed on to her children and grandchildren.
