Jose "Joey" Luis Linares

Jose “Joey” Luis Linares

            A private family celebration of life for lifelong Lamar resident, Jose Luis Linares affectionately known to his family and friends as Joey, will be held at the Peacock Family Chapel.  

            On July 26, 2022, at the age of 39, Jose “Joey” Linares completed his journey in life and has made his way through Heaven’s door to rest peacefully under the caring grace of our lord and savior.

Born September 10, 1982, Joey was the 2nd son born to Victor and Carmen Linares and would be brother to Javier and later, Carlos. Throughout his life, Joey blessed those around him with his joyous laughter which could be heard throughout the house on any given day. If you were fortunate to experience it, then your day was made that much better because of it.

Joey lived beyond all expectations and became an inspiration to us all. With his perseverance and lovable nature, he motivated us to be better and pushed us to reach further than we ever thought we could. The echo of his laughter and brightness of his smile will be remembered for as long as we live.

Though he will no longer be with us physically, his spirit remains and we are comforted in knowing that he has reached eternal happiness. May he walk with God, run with the angels, and speak to us when we close our eyes. We love you Joey and will miss you dearly. Until we meet again.

            He is preceded in death by his paternal grandfather Victor Linares, Sr.

            Joey is survived by his parents Victor and Carmen Linares; siblings Javier Linares of Lamar, CO and Carlos (Jennifer) Linares of Aurora, CO; niece Adalynn “Addy” Linares, nephews Charles “Charlie” Linares and Benjamin “Benji” Linares all of Aurora, CO and maternal grandparents Francisca and Pedro Madrid of Lamar, CO and paternal grandmother Lidia Rabago of Ciudad Acuna, Mexico as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
