Loved and missed, he is survived by his wife Pam Chapman, children Melinda (spouse Taylor), Rachel (spouse Peter), Stephen, Michelle, Brian (spouse Renee), Rachel P., his beautiful grandchildren, and sister Janice, living in Montana. His passions for music, cars, motorcycles and books touched the lives of all who knew him. Jesus was close to his heart, and he loved to share Him with others he knew.
