Obituary of Chris Henkel

Class of 1989 alumnus Chris Henkel very sadly passed away on July 5, 2024, at the age of 57. His one-of-a-kind spirit will be missed by all those who knew and loved him.

He will be remembered for his love of animals, music, sports (specifically the Packers and Badgers) and reminiscing about all the fun he had “back in the day.” His stories usually centered around time spent with friends and just maybe causing a little trouble!

Chris was a graduate of both West High School and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Most of his professional career was spent in sales.
