Christopher Haddock's Obituary

The Unicorn... In one word Christopher is a unicorn. Rare and Cherished. Chris was a wonderful man who brought delight everywhere he went. A great guy and loved by everyone.
Chris had amazing craftmanship, creating bits of art using old chains to wood while leaving his heart all around Decatur through his landscaping. He spent 17 dedicated years at his job at Graphic Packaging in Shelbyville Il.
A favorite pastime was cruising down the road on “Fancy” his Harley Davidson motorcycle, with his brother Heath and camping with his bro Tripp.
Chris was the most loving and caring father to his beautiful and cherished daughters Jenna and Cailyn. He loved being super competitive with his girls while playing fun board games at the coffee table and making memories with every Marvel movie release.
In the words of his niece “He was the best uncle in this world” a true “golden man” described by his friends.
Through all the many adventures with Kelly “his best friend and love”, together they found joy not only in life but in each other.
Chris was preceded in death his father, Doug Haddock; grandparents, Ken and Mary Haddock and Dean and Glenda Webb.
Chris is also survived by his daughters, Jenna Haddock of St. Louis MO and Cailyn Haddock of Decatur; life partner, Kelly Copeland of Latham Il; mother Linda Stohl of Decatur Il brother, Heath (Amber) Haddock of Macon Il; Neice, Sydney Haddock of Macon Il.
