Obituary for Robert Chapman
ROBERT EDWARD CHAPMAN, 83, peacefully took his last breath with his family by his side on Sunday, June 7, 2020 at Bluewater Health, Sarnia. He was a loving husband to the late Alma (nee Wright)(2006). Robert was truly a wonderful Father who’s love and kindness left an indelible mark on the life of his son. Words can not express how dearly missed he will be by his son Greg and his daughter-in-law Chance. Proud grandpa and great grandpa to his four grandchildren and his six great grandchildren who all gave him great joy. A loving uncle to his nephew Burton McKinlay and his niece Joan McKinlay-Kennedy. Bob shared many lifelong friendships; one in particular, his childhood and life-long friend and best man, Ray Lloyd. Robert was predeceased by his parents John and Beatrice Chapman, his sister Ruth (the late Don) McKinlay, as well as his infant brother, Burton Chapman. Bob dearly enjoyed gardening on his farm property, particularly his tomato garden, partaking in the fishing derby, along with being an avid traveller and camper. He was a retired process operator at Imperial Oil, a member of Alexandra-Inwood Masonic Lodge #503, Naomi Lodge #39 OES, and a member of Royal Canadian Legion Br. 249 in Alvinston. Bob’s family would like to thank Dr. John Butler and his team, the VON, Lambton Meadowview Villa and the AEC Day Program as well as Needham-Jay Funeral Home and their staff. A private family service will take place. Interment will be in Alvinston Cemetery.
