It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Joe Burek, a beloved father, and grandfather, who left us on January 2, 2025.
Joe was known for his immense passion for cars - an interest that shaped his life and career, working side by side with his Dad at Joe Madden Ford. He never considered it work, because he loved every moment of what he did, and his expertise and joy in the field were evident to all who knew him.
Joe's greatest joy, however, was his family. He cherished every moment spent with his children and grandchildren, and his love for them was boundless. He was a devoted and caring presence, always quick to offer support, advice, and a smile. His legacy will live on in the lives of his family, whom he adored.
Joe is survived by his two daughters, Christi (Tom) Bonnier, Rebecca (Cody) Voigt, three grandchildren, Brendan Bonnier, Nicole Bonnier and Joey Voigt. He will be deeply missed by his family, siblings and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
"Work is not work when you love what you do."
The family has entrusted Elias, Kallal, and Schaaf Funeral Homes and Crematory with his cremation services.
