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 US Army Reserves. 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 the 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 reflected his faith. He was a man of God who loved Jesus with every fiber of his being. His unwavering belief guided his action, 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 and 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.

Friends will have the opportunity to pay their respects and celebrate Corey’s life on Thursday, July 18, 2024, from 2-4 and 6-8 pm at Laube Hall, 115 Community Park Road, Freeport, PA 16229.

Funeral services will be private, led by his Pastor Jonathan Fehl, who will honor Corey’s journey of faith and the immeasurable love he shared with all.

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