He was born February 25, 1977, in Raleigh, North Carolina to Rosalie and the late Guido Innacelli. Chris graduated from Sanderson High School in 1995 and went on to receive a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Western Carolina University.
Many years of Chris’ business career was spent in the wine and spirits industry, but the proudest achievement of his career was in November 2022 when he opened Vittoria‘s Vine and Cheese, in Westchase, Florida.
His personal passion was boating with Shana, Aislinn and their dog Ellie, exploring the islands on the Gulf coast; traveling together; rooting for the New York Giants and Red Sox; and last but not least, listening to anything Jimmy Buffet. With all of those things said, there is no doubt, the time he cherished most was his time spent with Aislinn building bigger and more complex Legos or just simply time together.
Chris is survived by his wife, Shana; daughter, Aislinn; mother, Rosalie; sister, Lisa Innacelli (George Hall); in-laws, Fred and Darleen Stowitzky; brother-in-law, Darren(Michelle and Cora), as well as many beloved aunts, uncles and cousins.
Chris’ endearing infectious smile and friendship will be sorely missed.
