Joseph ( Joey ) A Firak, age 49. 

Passed on December 20th 2018 in Denver, Colorado. 

He was born in Chicago, IL to Sharon L and Jospeh E Firak on December 3rd 1969. He is survived by his wife Sheri Firak older brother Paul Firak, younger sisters JoAnn Hudson and Lisa Burkholder. Nieces and nephews Ashley, Tristen, Marlee, Aubrey, Natalee and Ilyanna . He was preceded by Dakota Harris ( nephew ) and parents Sharon and Joseph Firak. 

Joey was an amazingly talented carpenter, he loved music and played the guitar with passion. He had an extreme love for animals and a very unique way of communicating with them. Joey was also a man of the Bible who spread the word of the gospel to many. He was involved in the homeless community in Atlanta GA and Denver CO. Throughout this journey he helped many, his focus being battered women and war vets. He could fix or build anything, and his hands were his tools. Joey was a clever individual who loved to pick on his sisters, nieces and nephews. As he would say “he was a savage at heart”. He was the man of the family and very protective of those he loved. To say he will be missed is an understatement. We lost a part of our sibling clan and it will never be the same. Rest In Peace brother, fly high our guardian angel.
