Alexander Yager Obituary
Charlton - Alexander M. 'Sasha' Yager, 21, son of William J. and Sharon M. (DeLap) Yager of Charlton, passed away peacefully in his sleep, after an illness on Wednesday, May 7, 2014.
Sasha was born Alexander Klipov in Vyaznicki, Vladimir, Russia, to his biological mother, Lubov Klipova on March 22, 1993. He and his twin sister became part of the Yager family when the Yager's came to Russia to adopt their younger sister in 2004.
Sasha was a proud 2012 graduate of Shepherd Hill Regional High School and was working as a self-employed landscaper at the time of his passing. Sasha loved the outdoors and enjoyed fishing, boating, kayaking, snowboarding and biking. He was proud of his dual heritage and enjoyed Russian music, comedies and cuisine.
Sasha's proudest achievements was obtaining a United States diploma and passing his MCAS exams on the first try after only being in the United States for six months.
In addition to his parents, Sasha leaves his siblings; twin sister Kristina, Olya, Liam and Riley, maternal grandparents Eileen and Norman DeLap of Webster, Bill and Geraldine Yager of Scotia, N.Y., his biological grandmother Nadia Klipova in Russia. He also leaves aunts uncles and cousins and numerous extended family in both the United States and Russia. His mother predeceased him in 2003, and his sister Katya in 1995. He also leaves his girlfriend Rebecca Babbitt and numerous friends who will remember his hard working, fun loving feisty spirit in everything he did. His life ended far too soon, but all that knew him would say he lived hard, played hard, and never left a minute on the table.

To the Yagar Family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Sasha was a wonderful boy and we enjoyed his friendship in our home. He was very respectful and caring and it just doesn't seem real, that he will not just show up today knocking on our door or actually just walking in and saying "hello folks, Travis home?". There are no words to help you through this. But I know he is enjoying his new found life in Heaven.
