Carmelo Correa Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Informed Choice Funeral & Cremation Alternatives - West Allis on Sep. 23, 2025.
Carmelo Correa, Sr., age 62, of Milwaukee, WI, passed away on September 2, 2025, on what was his 62nd birthday, due to complications from pancreatic cancer.

Born in Chicago, IL, Carmelo was a devoted family patriarch and a proud member of the Pentecostal faith. He was known for his brilliant skills as a mechanic, often sharing his expertise and passion with those around him. Beyond his professional talents, Carmelo found joy in simple pleasures-spending time with family, listening to music, watching television, and caring for his beloved dog, Chico.

Carmelo leaves behind a legacy of love and resilience. He will be deeply missed but will be remembered for his warmth, humor, and unwavering support as a Father, Son, Grandpa, Uncle, Nephew, Brother and Friend.

In honor of his memory, a viewing and service will be held on Friday, September 26th from 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM at Krause Funeral Home, 7001 West Brown Deer Road. Followed by a burial at Forest Home Cemetery, 2405 West Forest Home Avenue at 1:00 PM (please meet at "office"). Friends and family are invited to come together to celebrate Carmelo's life and the joy he brought to all who knew him.

"You can sleep now. You're free. We love you"
