CLARKSVILLE — Blair Joseph Sala “went to be with God” on Tuesday, Jan. 16, 2024, his family wrote in a tribute. He was 47.

“Blair loved his weekly outings to the car races with his good friend, Chris Wilkes,” the tribute said. “Blair regularly attended the Clarksville Community Church. He enjoyed watching sports and rooting for the Dallas Cowboys and Oregon Ducks. Go Ducks!”

He is survived by his parents, Joseph and Diane Sala; by his sisters, Staci DeLorenzo and her husband, Mark, of Voorheesville and Jill Greaux and her husband, Scott, of Glenmont; by four nieces and nephews; by several cousins; and by his beautiful cat, Maggie.
