Christopher Lee Sanchez

Father, brother, son, & grandfather Christopher Lee Sanchez passed away in Dallas, Texas on Friday, July 25, 2025. He was born in Dallas, Texas on July 5, 1981 to Anna Marie Sanchez & Jerry Lee Wiggins.

Christopher was an exceptionally hard worker, known for his skill and technical precision in painting and remodeling. He approached every project with integrity and care, earning a reputation for quality craftsmanship. His work lives on in countless homes, stores, and restaurants across Texas and Florida.

Affectionately known as "Strech" to many, Christopher attended Warren Travis White High School, where he was often the class clown, and always willing to do anything for a laugh. He had a lifelong love of magic, both watching it and performing tricks that fascinated him.

Music was a constant presence in Christopher's life. He was drawn to artists with meaningful lyrics and themes of perseverance, from DMX and Pimp C to Joyner Lucas. His admiration for Michael Jackson began in childhood, and his performances of "Smooth Criminal" in the living room are cherished family memories. As an adult, he found deep personal resonance in the music of Eminem, whose lyrics of redemption and resilience reflected Christopher's own journey.

Christopher also had a love for film and television. He enjoyed a wide range of favorites, from Oliver & Company, Crash, and Cast Away, to Pee Wee's Big Adventure and King of Queens. But CSI: Crime Scene Investigation was his favorite; he especially loved discussing the science behind the show.

A proud Texan through and through, Christopher held a deep love for his hometown of Dallas, where he lived his entire life. Baseball had a special place in his heart. He was a lifelong Texas Rangers fan, and nothing made him happier than catching a game in person or sporting his Rangers hat and shirt.

Above all else, Christopher was a devoted father. His greatest pride and joy were his four children. He spoke of them often and with immense love-his children were his guiding light. Through all of life's ebbs and flows, he did everything he could to be the best father he could be.

Christopher was a caring father, a protective brother, a loving son, and a loyal friend. He was generous, funny, helpful, and never judgmental. He loved fiercely-and was deeply loved in return. He will be profoundly missed by all who were lucky enough to know him.

Christopher was preceded in death by his mother, Anna Marie Sanchez, & grandfather Delfino Lopez Sanchez. Survivors are son Isaiah Xavier Sanchez; daughters Destany Faith Sanchez, Caylee Jade Sanchez, and Mia Amor Sanchez; grandchildren Grayson Isaiah and Selah May Sanchez; sisters Christina Marie Rosemann (Matthew), Victoria Marie Weathers (Clint), and Tiffany Marie Weatherly (Cris); nieces, extended family members and beloved friends.
