Korey, who has cerebral palsy, let some of those secrets fly during his best man speech at Kyle's wedding two weeks ago. Because Korey can't speak, Kyle read the speech out loud -- once he choked back happy tears, of course.
The Sodermans, from West Palm Beach, Fla., have never let Korey's condition get in their way. His mom, Wendy, started her own private school, IDEAL & Dream School, when she had difficulty finding a preschool for Korey, according to an A&E documentary about the family.
Korey, meanwhile, founded his own nonprofit, Korey's Krew, which works with teens and young adults with physical disabilities.
"I'm differently abled," he told the Palm Beach Post in 2010, after winning an award for his community service. "I can do what others do, I just do it differently."
You can watch Korey's full speech below. It starts at the 2:50 mark, after a clip of Korey and Kyle's appearance on TLC's "Miami Ink."
