Christopher Sailor Obituary

March 9, 1974
March 23, 2023

Christopher William Sailor found peace and happiness on March 23rd, 2023, and is now with God and his Angels. He was born on March 9th, 1974, and was a loving son to Tom and Mary Sailor, dear brother to Barbara (Dave) Bennett, Elizbeth (Kevin) Dobson, Jim (Polly) Sailor, Rebecca (Declan) Murtaugh, Jeff Sailor, Tony (Shelly) Havel, and buddy to faithful cat Frankie.
Upon graduating from Middleton High School in 1993, Chris left Wisconsin to move to Colorado, where he pursued his passions of skiing, hiking, fishing, camping, and living with nature. He was a man of many talents and skills. He was a master at using his hands and artistic skills to create amazing works of art that included many types of woodworking projects, gem/rock cutting creations that were one-of-a-kind, and beautiful stained-glass pieces. His love for music included bluegrass and classic rock. During his time in Colorado, he also became an avid frisbee golfer, fly fisherman, poker player, and master craftsman.
Chris was fiercely loyal to his friends and family and made a huge impact on everyone he knew. He was generous beyond bounds, never expecting a thing in return. His smile was infectious, and his signature giggle would light up a room and make everyone around him smile. He was one of the most down-to-earth humans we knew and his passion for things he loved to do was priceless.
Chris was preceded in death by his biological father, Martin Havel, and his brother, Jeffrey Havel. There will be no funeral service, and in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) (https://www.nami.org/Home) or the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA) (https://www.dbsalliance.org/).

Dear Mary and Tom and family,
We all read with great sadness about Chris's passing. Our fondest memory of Chris was when he and Robert would catch salamanders in the window wells, I think about age 4 or 5. They sure had a great time! We send our best thoughts to all of you at this time, from your old neighbors, Dennis and Marj Kozich (Robert and Kathryn too).

Our hearts go out to the Sailor Family.
Chris was such a great man and friend to many. I first met Chris in First Grade and we remained friends though out all of our Middleton years. He was always there to help anyone or make someone feel better. I haven´t seen Chris for a few years but we would see him periodically when he came back to the Madison area. We can still see his smiling face and hear his great laugh as I write this today. We hope you are at peace and looking down at us from heaven smiling Chris....Love you buddy!
