Ladies and gentlemen, family and friends, we gather today to honor, remember and celebrate the life of Joey Warren. I want to begin by offering my sincerest condolences to all those who knew Joey and who will feel his absence in the days and years to come.
Joey was my older brother, my confidant, my friend, and my hero. His ability to bring life, laughter, and love into every room he entered truly set him apart. Whether it was through his uncanny ability to embody the spirit of Jim Carrey in his renditions of "Fire Marshall Bill" or "Lloyd Christmas," or simply by shining his infectious smile on everyone he met, Joey was a beacon of light and joy in all of our lives.
When I think of the person Joey was, I am reminded of the poem "Brother" by poetry goddess:

I remember my brother
And the first time he met you,
He knew without a doubt
You'd take away a piece of his heart.
He would laugh until his sides would ache,
And tell me, "You should meet him, too!"
For a brother he would say
Is a piece of heaven in my life.
You both were bound by the blood you share,
The joy, the love, and the tears,
A brother like him was so very rare,
He'll remain in our hearts all through the years.
Joey was, indeed, that rare person. He possessed an innate ability to turn ordinary moments into extraordinary memories, and over the years, we collected countless stories of love, laughter, and adventure with him. Today, as we say our final goodbyes, let us cherish these memories and live a life as exceptional as his.
Beyond making us laugh until tears rolled down our cheeks, Joey was an inspiration in his day-to-day life. He was a thoughtful and giving brother, a loving son, a dependable friend, and a compassionate human being. When times got tough, or we faced challenges, Joey's advice, support, and encouragement were unmatched.
Joey's passing has reminded us of the fragility of life, but it has also brought to light the tremendous impact he had on everyone fortunate enough to know him. It has inspired us to embody the love, joy, and laughter that Joey brought into our lives.
Yes, Joey may have left this world, but his legacy of happiness, humility, and love are indelibly imprinted on our hearts. As we leave here today, let us remember the times he made us laugh, let us remember the depth of love he shared, and let us carry his legacy with us, forever.
I am so grateful for the time I had with him as his brother, and I am proud to know he is watching out for all of us and making Heaven a little bit more lively with his remarkable sense of humor. Rest in peace, dear brother. We love you, we miss you, and we will always carry you in our hearts.
