Joseph Slepak Obituary

Joseph "Joe" Slepak, 48, of Richmond, Va., formerly of West Deer Township, passed away unexpectedly Sunday, Jan. 9, 2022. Joe was born May 3, 1973, in Pittsburgh, son of Pun Sun "Sunja" Slepak, of West Deer Township, and the late Raymond Slepak. He was a 1991 graduate of Deer Lakes High School and received a Bachelor of Science degree in education, 1995, from Slippery Rock University. He was the bar manager for Beach House Bar and Grill, Glen Allen, Va. His patrons called him a "true icon" in the industry, supporting them with uplifting words, friendship and smiles. Joe was known for his compassion, humor, competitiveness and sincerity that drew people to him. He respected others, did no harm and was humble in his accomplishments. Joe enjoyed golfing, spending time with his friends and family and was an avid Steelers fan. He is survived by his beloved mother, Sunja; heartbroken siblings, Susanna Schmitt, of Sacramento, Calif., John (Leslie) Slepak, of Zelienople, and Mark (Becky) Slepak, of Natrona Heights; soulmate, Courtney Talley, of Richmond, Va.; nieces and nephews, Devon Schmitt, Dillon Schmitt, Chase (Katy) Slepak, Jett Slepak, Brandon Welsh and Colton Busch; grand-nieces and nephews, Reagan and Charlie; and his sweet puppy, Bagel Bite. He also leaves behind many family and friends in the Richmond area. Joe was preceded in death by his father, Raymond Slepak. The family will be receiving friends from 10 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 15, 2022, at ADAM SIEMIANOWSKI FUNERAL HOME, 179 Starr Road, Russellton, West Deer Township, PA 15076. A memorial service will be celebrated at 1:45 p.m. in the funeral home. A private burial will take place at Deer Creek Cemetery, Harmar Township. Joe will be laid to rest next to his father, Raymond. We are sure that they are in Heaven, throwing the baseball and rooting for the Steelers. The family suggests memorials in Joe's name to Richmond Animal League, 11401 International Drive, Richmond, VA 23236. For online condolences, please visit, www.westdeerfuneralhome.com.
