Candice Easton stood on the porch of the Masonic Lodge in Flowery Branch, looking over the crowd — more than 100 strong — that showed up to honor her father, Pfc. Cornelius Cornelssen VIII, Saturday afternoon. She was worried no one would show up to his celebration of life, but those worries quickly went out the door, just like the guests were forced to do as the lodge filled up and the crowd could no longer fit inside.
