Joseph "Joey" Pellegrino Jr., born in 1995, passed away on Thursday, March 19, 2026, far too soon, leaving behind a legacy of passion, resilience, and love.
Joey was a gifted skateboarder whose talent, creativity, and fearless spirit were evident to anyone who watched him ride. Though he faced his share of struggles, those who knew him best also knew his strength, his heart, and his determination to keep going even on the hardest days. He had a way of making people laugh, bringing light into any room, and reminding others to live fully and authentically.
Joey is now at peace, free from the burdens he carried, and will be remembered for the joy he brought to those around him. He will be deeply missed and forever loved by his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
He is survived by his father, Joe Pellegrino of Woodstock, GA; his mother, Tina Pellegrino of Woodstock, GA; his sister, Erica Snider of Woodstock, GA; and his nephew, Ashton Larevitzear.
The family will receive friends at Darby Funeral Home on Saturday, March 28, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m.
The caring staff of Darby Funeral Home is honored to serve the Pellegrino family.
