Jeremy Chapman Obituary
Jeremy took pride in working as a manager at Academy Sports and Outdoors. He always encouraged each of his employees to set high standards and take pride in their work. There, he not only made numerous friends, but it also reintroduced him to his love of fishing. Jeremy loved fishing in tournaments with his many friends. Jeremy's larger than life personality and smile will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
He is survived by his son and pride and joy, Cameron Chapman; his parents, David and Jeri Chapman; his brother and sister-in-law, Chris and Heather Chapman, all of Longview; his aunts and uncles, Kirt and Kathy Yates Hogg of Longview and Ira and Deanne Yates Freet of Humble and Bennie and Janice Killingsworth of Longview; many cousins; paternal grandmother, Jewel Rice of Longview; his best friend, Lacey Chapman; and many loving and faithful friends.
If so desired, memorials may be made to Jeremy's favorite charity, The Wounded Warrior Project or to the Fellowship Bible Church Building Fund, 4600 McCann Road, Longview, TX 75605.

I still can't believe that you are gone, but you are in a better place now and i'm sure you're feeling 100 times better. You were a great manager at Academy and you will definitely be missed. Sending prayers to his family and friends.

To the Chapman Family,
My daughter, Tyree worked with your son Jeremy at Academy. She always talked about what a great Supervisor he was. Nothing but kind words as she talked about him. Jeremy will really be missed by her and many of his co-workers at Academy. Hold on to God's unchanging Hands.

I worked with Jeremy a few years ago at Lowe's and now my dad was one of Jeremy's co-workers at Academy. Jeremy was such a sweet and nice guy and was called home way too early. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. From my family to yours, we are all praying for you in this time of loss. God Bless

Rest in peace sweet Jeremy. There are going to be many tears from many people left behind in this world. But, I know you rest in peace because there are no tears in heaven...I'm sure you will find an amazing fishing pond and we will all see you again in God's time. Love and peace to all of your family and friends.

We are so sorry to hear about Jeremy. We met his Dad at the ICU while we were there with our son. We understand and share the pain you feel as Ben also went home to be with the Lord on the 11th. A kind friend shared with us that this will never feel right, but time will make it easier. It's a time to remember the good and to draw closer to our Lord. Our prayers are with you.
