Balys Korza was born in 1902 im Nevarėnai, county Telšiai. He started working in 1934 as a postmaster in Plateliai. He was an active public figure, a zealous distributor of the Lithuanian press, loved and respected by the people. On July 12, 1940 he was arrested by the occupying Soviet authorities and imprisoned in Telšiai prison. During the night of June 24 to 25 1941, 75 political prisoners of Telšiai prison were brutally murdered in Rainiai forest near Telšiai prison. Balys Korza was one of the murdered ones.
