Joseph E. Jara of Northford, beloved son of Dena and Wilson Jara, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, December 3, 2024.
Joseph was born in Norwalk on December 30th, 1993. He was an electrician's apprentice, on his way to becoming an electrician. In addition to his parents he is survived by his siblings, Gabriella (Chris), Sophia, Chico and Wilie, his maternal grandparents, Edward and Gada Horehlad, his love, Gillian Zaczkowski and many aunts, uncles and cousins whom he loved dearly.
Joe's passing has left a void in the hearts of his family, friends and many more whose lives were touched by him. Joe had an inspiring gift to only see the good in people. We ask that you remember his life not for the way it ended but for the way it was lived and the profound impact he had on all the lives who had the pleasure of knowing him. We will honor him by living like he did; giving without expecting anything in return, showing up when no one else does and forgiving even when it doesn't make sense.
Relatives and friends are invited to a visitation on Sunday from 2:00 – 4:00, with a service at 4:00, at the W. S. Clancy Memorial Funeral Home, 244 North Main Street, Branford.

Dear Wilson and Dena and your beautiful family. I just saw this tonight 12/20/24. I am shocked and saddened by your loss. I remember Joey from the time I met you and your beautiful children at Common Grounds. Please know I´m praying for all of you and that Joey finds peace in the Lord. Words are inadequate at this time. Too many young people have left far too soon. All we can do is share our love and hold on tight. Prayers to all of you
