Comperatore

Corey D. Comperatore, 50, of Sarver, passed away on Saturday, July 13, 2024, leaving behind a legacy of love and courage.

Born on June 16, 1974, in Natrona Heights, Pa., he was the son of Karen Bird and the late Carl L. Comperatore.

Corey was a proud graduate of Freeport High School, Class of 1992, and went on to honor his country as a dedicated 10-year veteran of the U.S. Army Reserve. His commitment to excellence continued in his professional life, where he excelled as a project and tooling engineer at JSP. Corey’s passion for his community shone brightly through his active membership at Cabot Church and his lifelong service at the Buffalo Volunteer Fire Department, where he notably served as chief in the early 2000s.

But above all, Corey was the quintessential family man and the best girl dad. His love for his wife, Helen (Scott) Comperatore, was a testament to the power of partnership and devotion. Together, they raised two daughters, Allyson and Kaylee Comperatore, who will carry forward his spirit of compassion. Also surviving are his mother, Karen (Denny) Bird; his sisters, Kelly (Doug) Meeder and Dawn Comperatore Shaffer; his stepbrother, Steven (Megan) Warheit; his two beloved Dobermans, Ivan and Negan; and many nieces, nephews and great-nieces.

Corey's life was a reflection of his faith. He was a man of God who loved Jesus with every fiber of his being. His actions were guided by his unwavering belief, and he inspired those around him to live with purpose and grace. His ability to lift the spirits of everyone he encountered was unparalleled.

His courage was not the loud, boisterous kind; it was the courage of quiet resilience, the strength to be vulnerable, and the bravery to lead with love. Corey’s legacy is not just in the major milestones he achieved, but in the small acts of kindness that marked his everyday life. He was quick to help those in need, never expecting anything in return, and his impact on the lives he touched was profound.

His life reminds us that to be courageous is to love without limits.
