JOEY HUSKINSON Obituary
It is with profound sadness, we announce the passing of our beloved son, brother and uncle, Joey Huskinson, on Wednesday, July 10th, 2024 at the young age of 34.
Joey is survived by his parents, Allan and Marlene and his two brothers - David (Amy) nephew Jace and niece Ellie from Thunder Bay ON, Darren (Stephanie) from Victoria BC.
Joey was loved by so so many. He touched countless of peoples' lives especially through his work. Joey was employed at the Canadian Armed Forces for over 15 years as a recruiter and as a Med Tech Assistant of the 18th field ambulance. He was selfless and was always thinking of others first. A big void will be left in all of our hearts, particularly his closest co-workers Max, Rob and Brandi .
Through his youth, Joey loved sports. He did AA and AAA Kings hockey. He also played high school football for Saint Patrick's High School "GO SAINTS GO!" Anyone who knew Joey knew his love for football was immense and tense - Purple all the way - Baltimore Ravens .
No words can express how much your care and support was appreciated during Joey's stay at the LHSC University Hospital. To all the staff on the ICU floor and the transplant unit 4th floor, we will never forget you .
Celebration of Life will be held on Thursday, July 25th, 2024 at 2pm for family and friends at Joey's home, 1875 Glenoah Ave.

My deepest, deepest condolences to Joeys family. His smile was infectious, always lighting up any room he walked in. I always looked up to him, whether it was in walking in the halls at St. Pats, hearing his heroic yet humble medic stories or smiling over Joey and Colin being best friends. He was a bonus brother to the Palmquist family - He was so welcomed, cherished, and celebrated. He truly had a heart of gold, he was a joy to our world and he will be forever missed. I hold you and your family in my warmest thoughts and prayers.

Joey was full of light and fun. He was a force in any room he entered. I had the privilege of working with Joey for three summers. Despite long hours, he always made time for fun and a good meal. My sincerest condolences to his family. Rest easy, soldier.

I had the privilege to meet Joey in the summer of 2019. At the time I knew him only as Sergeant Huskinson as he was the course director for the military training I was taking at the time. Even though our interactions were limited in 2019, he was able to leave an impression on me as not only someone who was fun to spend time with, but also as a leader who cared for the wellbeing and knowledge his staff and students recieved under his leadership. Over the years, I got to know Sergeant Huskinson more, as a mentor when we both went to Chruchhill to provide medical support in the Arctic, and as my supervisor, when we both were staff on multiple medical courses, the last being in Victoria in 2023. Eventually (inevitably), Sergeant Huskinson became a friend I looked forward to working with year after year. Joey, I miss you. Rest in peace brother.

I was lucky enough to have worked with Joey as part of our little 18 Fd Amb family for 10 years. Countless times Joey "saved the day" with his dedication to the unit and the team, taking on last minute critical taskings or projects. (not to mention saving my butt more than once).Moreover, the CAF benefited greatly from Joey´s solid skills as a Med A on taskings and operations. Supported units knew they were getting the best support and team player when Joey was involved. Many times I relied on him for his expertise and ability to take on big challenges and he always pulled them off with great success. After a decade you become more than coworkers. We had many great times over the years where many shenanigans took place. He was always up for a laugh. A great guy who was taken from us far too soon. I will miss him.
My sincerest condolences to the Huskinson family.

I met Joey in Sacred Heart, our gym classes were schedualed together. I remember Joey always participating in every gym activity / sport we did in class. No matter how many laps we had to run or how hard the task was, Joey always worked hard at what we were instructed, never gave up and gave it his all. Joey had a wonderful personality; it was always a joy to be around him. He was so kind; he would always say hi when passing by in the hallways at St. Pats. When I hear his name I automatically think of his smile. He had this great smile and when he smiled, his eyes smiled. I never heard anything negative about Joey, he had a very kind heart, and always lend a helping hand. My sincere condolences to Joey´s family, loved ones, and his friends. He will be remembered and missed by so many.

Rest easy Husky. You were a great man, a great leader, and a great teacher. We knew each other only briefly, but I will always remember your humourous approach to navigating the big green machine.

Joey was a good friend and I will miss him greatly. He would help anyone that needed it, at anytime, for any reason. He cared a lot about his friends and was incredibly loyal. Joey always had encouraging words for anyone who needed them. I hope he has found peace and I will remember him with great fondness.

Havanal stanza 50: "A fir all alone in a grove will wilt. It's bark and needles give it no shelter. It's the same for he who's unloved". I offer my condolences to Joey's family, and it's clear from these messages he was in a grove filled with trees, always surrounded by those he loved. He friends and family gave him shelter, and he will be missed. I enjoyed my time on tasking with him in Borden. I'm sorry for your loss.

Words cannot even begin to express our sorrow. Deepest condolences to Huskinson family
Love thank you for all the wonderful memories we shared. I will always cherish those memories and the time we spent together. you are truly just a once in a lifetime kind of person, genuine, humble, selfless, brave and loyal. I´ll never get used to the fact that you were here one minute and gone the next. I´m curious about you every single day. Now I have to remember you for longer than I have known you, perhaps in another life we will be granted more years together. It gives me some sort of comfort knowing that I was there for you through it all, until the end I was there for you and I was able to tell and show you how much I love you. You are and will always be my answered prayer, even after this lifetime. Thank you for loving me and Gabe, I will miss the laughs, tears, your goofiness, all the plans we´ll never get to do lastly the love and care you showed me and the monster. I love you so much, you´re our angel now. I will always be your "moon of my life" - and you´re forever "my sun and stars"
Rest easy my love.
