God saw that he was getting tired and a cure was not to be, So He put His arms around him and whispered "Come with Me." With tearful eyes we watched him suffer and saw him fade away. Although we loved him dearly we could not make him stay. A loving heart stopped beating, hard working hands to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best.
We are indeed blessed to have had such a wonderful friend and a
co-worker.
Show you will be deeply missed

"Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted." To my family, Show was Loved so much and by so many. As long as we continue to hold his Love in our hearts he will forever be with us. Show was called home when God was ready for him. We will all take that trip, but Show went first. He is up there now smiling down on all of us. To my uncle Mippy, aunt Jenny and Nell, God can heal your hearts and in time he will. Cherish the memories. I certainly will. Aunt Jenny I did find the picture of us all hanging out the last time I was in Texas and it certainly did my heart glad. It had been many years since I saw Show, until this year when I saw him in Many. It was sooo good to see him, although it was just for a brief time. I thank God that he allowed me to make the trip to see him one last time. I was Blessed by being there. I have never seen a wake service, with so many people. That shows how well Loved he is and how much he will be missed. May God Bless and keep you always. Love Always, LaWanda

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart, and lean not to thy OWN understanding......To my second Parents Mr and Mrs Hale, Mother-Dear and Nell, Remember God NEVER makes a mistake, on July 26th God knew he needed another flower in his garden so he knew who he wanted and just happen to be my 'brother' Show. YES, surely he will be missed here on Earth, but always remember if we live and do accordingly to what God has planned for us, WE too will see Show again....The Evans family is just a call away....WEEPING MAY ENDURETH FOR NIGHT, BUT JOY COMETH IN THE MORNING

BROTHER!
I will always remember you walking thru the door with that big smile and the words "Hey Sister!" being spoken. I can't thank you enough for the countless times you made trips to Denton to bring me home to and from college. Those roadtrips are memories I will forever cherish. You were a great person who will always be loved and missed. I send my deepest condolences to his family. Tisa, stay strong and "Lean on God right now...cause he knows best"!
God bless you all
SISTER! to Show,

I so much wanted to be there in your time of need, but I was shipped out to the Army on July 29, 2004 with a heavy heart knowing what happen to Show and knowing that I would not be able to attend the services to see him this last time. My prayers are with the family.

I REMEBER WHEN I FIRST MET YOU AT FIRST SHILOH,CUTTING THE GRASS. IT WAS ABOUT TWO HUNDRED DEGREES OUTSIDE AND YOU WERE JUST SMILING AND HAPPY. THAT IS THE WAY I WILL REMEMBER YOU. I AM FOREVER YOUR BIG HOMIE. ONE!

Our condolences and prayers goes out to the Hale family.
We go "way back" with Champanez at First Shiloh & E.O. Smith Middle School, remembering that crazy smile and fun attitude. Always kept you laughing. Back in these days (in Vacation Bible School) we would call him "Brother Hale's son" or "Champagne" because nobody could pronounce his name correctly.
But we know one thing, this brother will truly be missed.
From: Kevan, Virgie, "Pot", "Pinkie", & "Shawn".

If God has had a refrigerator, your name would be on it. If He had wallet your photo would be in it. He sends you flowers every spring. He sends you a sunrise every morning. When ever you want to talk, He listen. He can live anywhere in the universe, but he chose your heart. Face it friend He is crazy about you!! God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorry, sun without rain,but He did promise strength for the day,comfort for the tears, and light for the way.
Love you and our prayers are with you,

My prayers and thoughts go out to the Hale Family. In a time of loss we find ourselves seeking solace with those who love and care for us. We all suffered a great loss and nothing can compensate for the love, laughter and joy we will miss. Please remember and cherish the happiest of memories and realize that, although Sho is not with us in body, he is definitely with us in love and spirit. May God's guidance help you accept the passing of your loved one and allow you to look forward to the day that you will once again meet and enjoy eternal happiness with Sho.
With Sincerest Regards,

Baby,
It's taken alot for me to finally get up out of bed to do this but here goes. This is my tribute to the man who made me "Whole". (My better half)
We set our date to become one (July 23, 2005).
We gave our lives to Christ(July 4, 2004).
Our plans and God's plan was different but.....He knows best.
The Good & Bad times made our love for one another stronger than ever imagined.
I'm not just losing the LOVE of my LIFE, I'm losing MY BEST FRIEND. Words will never be efficient; Missing you will never be enough.
OUR love is golden now and OUR memories will ALWAYS be treasured.
You told me to always be strong and that we would always win - as long as we were together. Well I'll carry you always in my heart that way we are always together.
Our hearts will always beat as one.
I LOVE YOU SOOO MUCH!!! AND MISS YOU EVEN MORE.
The hardest thing is to know you'll never be walking through our door. So, until I walk through GOD's door... Until we meet again. My love will continue to be "Unconditional" to the very end.
Your Fiance'e,
Tisha

I send my deepest condolences to the Hale Family. I meet Sho many years ago as a young girl. He was always with my uncle Shawn, therefore he was more than a friend; he was family. I have not seen or spoken to Sho in many years, but every time I think of him, I just see his beautiful smile. I cannot think of one moment when Sho seemed sadden; he always had a compassionate and loving spirit. The type of spirit that brought happiness to every life he touched. Sho, I’ll never forget you, and I’m sure I’ll see you again.

To God be the Glory...My heart became sad to hear of your loss, because that is human nature. But now we can rejoice because of God's Love. It is evident by the entries that Chapanez(Sho')touched so many lives while here - that was his "Purpose". God Bless the Hale Family....Angie originally from Many, La.

I am sorry to hear about the lost of your loved one. My twin sister and I met Chapanez at E.O. Smith. He was a nice person and always said hello. Know that God has the MASTER PLAN and he makes no mistakes. Be encouraged and may the Lord comfort your family in the time of your bereavement.

Sho,
It's been many years since I've seen or talked to you but I will never forget our good times at E.O. Smith and/or just hanging out. You will be missed but never forgotten. To the family, you are in my prays and God bless you.

My deepest sympathy goes to the Hale family. I met "Sho" at E.O. Smith Middle School. I had several classes with him and he was always the "class clown". I remember one class in particular. It was math with Mrs. Harrison as the teacher. All day long I heard "Chapanez, Chapanez!".
I am so sad that I didn't get a chance to attend the services. I just found out today. But words cannot express the wonderful memories of knowing him.
May God Bless you and my prayers are with you.
Sincerely,
ISAAC JACKSON

It was shown that Sho was very loved and he touched many, many people. He will be deeply missed. I have known you for most of my life. You were a very supportive family in my times of need and now it is my pleasure to return the favor. I am here and will always be here to help you in whatever you need me to do.

First of all giving all honor and praises to God, I'm glad to have had the pleasure of knowing "Sho", playing with him, playing against him. Now he's up there probably playing the 1 or the 2 on God's team. God bless the Hale family, God bless all my brothers and sisters from Kashmere, Wheatly, Forest Brook, Smiley, Madison and everybody that came out last night, it was definitly a beautiful sight to see everyone come out and show their support for our boy. R.I.P Sho you'll be truly missed.....

To the Hale Family,
I was Sho's classmate at Kashmere Senior High School and knew of him as a popular young man on our basketball team. I just want to extend my deepest sympathy and let you know that our prayers are with you especially in the days ahead. The one thing I am truly thankful for that was revealed at the visitation service on last night is that he accepted Jesus Christ as his personal savior before his death. Therefore, we can rejoice as belivers of God's grace and faithfulness to his people. For God declares that He will keep you in perfect peace who's mind is stayed upon him. Be Encouraged and May God Bless and Keep you all.

To the Hale Family,
I would like to extend my deepest condolences. I am a college friend of Sho, that we miss him deeply. I met Sho in 1992 at Ranger College we both were on the basketball team. From the very first time I met Sho he left a lasting impression on me. Sho keep a smile on his face and he always wanted you to do the same. Sho was a very energetic person, and fun to be around. I didn't see Sho after I left college but, he and my son's father (Haywood) were the best of friends and I would ask him how Sho was and he would say Sho is being Sho, so that meant he was still laughing and having fun. I can remember the first time my son came back from Houston visiting, I asked him if he had met any of his father's friends and the first person he spoke of was Sho. My son said how funny Sho was and that Sho was always trying to beat him up.
SHO YOU WILL BE DEEPLY MISSED!!!!
And to Mr. and Mrs.Hale and family may God Bless and Keep you through your tough time.

My heart felt prayers go out to all of Chapanez family & friends. Over the past few years I have learned from Mike Whitaker and Chapanez's friendship what a true friend is and what 'a good heart' truly means. Anyone that knew Show knows what a good heart he had. There is nothing he wouldn't do for you! 1 Samuel 16:7 says that God reads hearts. When God reads Chapanez's heart...we know exactly what he'll find!!!

Where do I begin? The Hale Family and the Bates Family have so many memories. We are still members of Mt. Ararat and are living on Sumpter Street. To the family: this is path that we all must travel. We don't cry as if there is no hope. Our hope lies in Jesus Christ. No matter what we go through in this life, God loves us more than we can imagine. Just as parents care for their children, God cares for us. Lift up your head and allow the King of Glory to take over during this hour. Who is this King of Glory you ask? The Lord of Host, He is the King of Glory. Our prayers will continue to be with you.

Words cannot begin to express the pain I feel in my heart but I do know that you are resting with our Savior and sitting with my mother. You are somewhere where I hope to be one day. Since your death all I can do is thank God for allowing peace between you and I. Though you may be gone in flesh you are still with me and Torreon in spirit..we both have so many memories of you to comfort us. The Bible says, "weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning" and I believe that and that is what is keeping me and the fact that God allowed 8 years for you to be a part of me and my son life. I will still continue to be there for your son and daughter. I have so much to say that I can go on and on. I am just thankful that I know the Lord and I know that He is going to comfort me & your family through this. I know all that I have just wrote you are not here to read in flesh but you are able in spirit.
Mr. & Mrs. Hale, Motherdear & Nell continue to hold on to Gods unchanging hands because He has Show & that is a good thing to know. He is resting..no more pain..no more tears.
Lil Show & Niq your dad loved each of you very much. God choosed him to be your father for a reason so though he may no longer be here just still continue to Thank God for when he was here and that he will continue to be in each of your hearts. Shawn & Adrienne I am here for whatever you need with those kids.
Continue to rest in peace Chapanez!
Love you all - Circhelle
