In Loving Memory of Prentice "Prenny" Chatfield.

With heavy hearts and immense gratitude for a life beautifully lived, we announce the passing of a remarkable woman who brought joy, light, and love into every room she entered. She left this world after bravely surpassing the odds of her prognosis, having faced her battle with strength, grace, and an unwavering spirit.

She lived with a profound sense of enthusiasm the kind that could turn the ordinary into something extraordinary. Whether through her infectious laughter, her gentle wisdom, or the thoughtful way she showed up for others, she had a way of making life feel a little brighter and people feel truly seen.

A devoted mother and an even prouder grandmother, her family was her heart's greatest masterpiece. She filled their lives with endless love, support, and pride and her legacy will live on in every hug, dance, and story passed down.

An art enthusiast, master gardener, and passionate dancer, she found beauty everywhere and moved through life with grace and rhythm. As a mental health expert, she gave of herself selflessly, offering compassion and care to those who needed it most.

Her presence was a gift, and her absence is a deep ache. She is, and always will be deeply, deeply missed.

Her memory remains a light, and her love a guide.
