FARMINGTON - Trenton "Trent" Xavier Chapman, of Farmington, passed away unexpectedly at home on February 20, 2025, at the age of 24. He was born on February 13, 2001, at Mineral Area Regional Medical Center in Farmington to Melissa (Jarrell) Stevens and John Chapman. His life, though far too brief, was marked by the love and joy he brought to those around him. Trent’s warm and loving personality will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Trent is survived by his devoted mother, Melissa (Dennis) Stevens, and his father, John Chapman. He leaves behind his siblings, Brooke (Josh) Granda, Dillon (Tessa) Hamm, Alexis Choate, and Talon Chapman, who will forever hold fond memories of their joyful times together. He is also mourned by his beloved grandparents, Ron Jarrell, Carolyn Chapman, Debbie Walker, and Steve Walker. He leaves behind a host of cousins, and his aunts, Christa (James) Boyce and Jennifer Jarrell, as well as his uncle, Lance (Michelle) Chapman. His cherished nephew, Kyler Granda, and his nieces, Paisley Choate and Violet Choate, will undoubtedly miss the laughter and love Trent brought into their lives. In addition to his family, Trent treasured his special friends Cindy Parker and Allison Hayes, who were an integral part of his life. Trent also leaves behind a host of cousins. He was preceded in death by his grandmother, Martha Rae Jarrell, and his grandfather, David Chapman.
Trent was an avid music lover, and it was said that music was everything to him. He enjoyed playing on his tablet and was a fan of the television show South Park, which brought him joy and laughter. As we remember Trent, let us celebrate the kindness and love he shared, keeping his spirit alive in our hearts through the joyful memories we all hold dear.
