I was in 4-H with Scott and I recall his easy smile and willingness to help. My sympathies go out to the Chapman Family. I know his love of farming and family ran deep in his life. He will be missed by many.

Scott has been a quiet, friendly presence all of my life. We were born one day apart and were even briefly "switched" at the hospital. Through 4-H, youth group and as adults, he was always a person friends could count on for a smile and a helping hand. I look forward to seeing him again in glory.

My sympathies go out to the Chapman family. I was fortunate enough to share Scott's company and to do mission work with him as a youth at the Presbyterian Church in Denison where he will surely be greatly missed.
Construction was always Scott's favorite thing...and he was so good at it.

I am so sad to hear about Scott. I went to school with him from 4th grade to high school and he was always kind and had a happy spirit. He was a farmer from the get go and I always admired how hard he worked at his family farm. I wish I could say something extremely profound...but I think I will let this speech by Paul Harvey speak for me. Except I would add at the end...So God made a farmer named Scott Chapman.....
And on the 8th day, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, "I need a caretaker." So God made a farmer.
God said, "I need somebody willing to get up before dawn, milk cows, work all day in the fields, milk cows again, eat supper and then go to town and stay past midnight at a meeting of the school board." So God made a farmer.
"I need somebody with arms strong enough to rustle a calf and yet gentle enough to deliver his own grandchild. Somebody to call hogs, tame cantankerous machinery, come home hungry, have to wait lunch until his wife's done feeding visiting ladies and tell the ladies to be sure and come back real soon -- and mean it." So God made a farmer.
God said, "I need somebody willing to sit up all night with a newborn colt. And watch it die. Then dry his eyes and say, 'Maybe next year.' I need somebody who can shape an ax handle from a persimmon sprout, shoe a horse with a hunk of car tire, who can make harness out of haywire, feed sacks and shoe scraps. And who, planting time and harvest season, will finish his forty-hour week by Tuesday noon, then, pain'n from 'tractor back,' put in another seventy-two hours." So God made a farmer.
God had to have somebody willing to ride the ruts at double speed to get the hay in ahead of the rain clouds and yet stop in mid-field and race to help when he sees the first smoke from a neighbor's place. So God made a farmer.
God said, "I need somebody strong enough to clear trees and heave bails, yet gentle enough to tame lambs and wean pigs and tend the pink-combed pullets, who will stop his mower for an hour to splint the broken leg of a meadow lark. It had to be somebody who'd plow deep and straight and not cut corners. Somebody to seed, weed, feed, breed and rake and disc and plow and plant and tie the fleece and strain the milk and replenish the self-feeder and finish a hard week's work with a five-mile drive to church.
"Somebody who'd bale a family together with the soft strong bonds of sharing, who would laugh and then sigh, and then reply, with smiling eyes, when his son says he wants to spend his life 'doing what dad does.'" So God made a farmer.
