Christopher Allen Corricelli, a gifted handyman and a soul of boundless creativity, was born on May 8, 1988, in the picturesque town of Everett, Washington. With an inquisitive mind and an extraordinary knack for building, Christopher embarked on a journey that merged his talents with his passions, leaving an indelible mark on all who knew him.
After graduating from Trevor G. Brown High School, Christopher poured his heart into every endeavor, relishing the challenge of crafting, creating, and fixing things with his own two hands. He was a man of many talents, someone who found delight in the simplest tasks yet was never deterred by the complexity of a job. His talents extended beyond handiwork; he embraced the joy of cooking and the thrill of working on cars, finding satisfaction in every spark and sizzle.
Christopher had a deep love for the great outdoors, with his heart anchored to any location where he could cast a rod in the water. His affinity for nature was matched only by his love of music, particularly the melodies of country tunes that often played in the background during his prized moments of relaxation. The warmth of Italian food filled his home, echoing deeply embedded memories of family gatherings and laughter.
He departed this world on August 15, 2025, at St. Joseph's Hospital in Phoenix, Arizona, surrounded by his family. His legacy is rooted in cherished memories—the aroma of a home-cooked meal, the sounds of his laughter, and the vibrant blue of his favorite color that symbolized his free spirit.
Christopher is survived by his loving father, Wayne Alan Corricelli, and his brother, Wayne L. Corricelli (Ammy), along with his devoted relatives: Aunt Diane Velasquez, Uncle Alfred Velasquez, Cousin Patricia Velasquez, and Cousin Denise Burton. While these surviving family members will hold their memories close, they are also reminded of the sorrow of loss, as he is preceded in death by his beloved mother, Sharron Jane Corricelli, and his cherished grandmother, Delores Corricelli.
To honor Christopher’s life, family and friends are invited to gather for visitation at Avenidas Funeral Chapel in Avondale, Arizona, on August 23, 2025, from 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM. As we reflect on a life well-lived, it is evident that Christopher's spirit will continue to inspire acts of creativity and kindness, encouraging us all to embrace our passions and cherish one another.
