Bob Chapman, passed away Wednesday in a Car Accident. Bob was 74 , he left his wife of 54 years. Who was Bob Chapman ?
Bob was my Uncle Ronalds boss for over 30 years, when my uncle passed away in 2000 , Bob spoke at his funeral, Bob was there for our Family, Bob made it possible for my Aunt to continue receiving paychecks and health insurance or 2 years after my uncles death.
My own father worked for Bob, until he retired a few years ago, when my Dad had some health issues a few years before his retirement, Bob made sure my father continued to receive a paycheck and never used any of his sick or vacation time. I did not know this until last year, but when we lost our son, Bob paid for the funeral. I thought it was done as a favor for my mom who had previously worked at the funeral home.
Bob also allowed my Dad and Uncle to borrow anything they needed from the business, free of charge. Bob loaned my aunt and uncle money a time or two when times were tough and would not let them pay it back.
Bob, paid of the balance of a $50,000 mortgage for his own church. Bob is gone, but anyone who ever met him was touched by him.
I know he is up there, with my Uncle sharing stories of a 30 year friendship and partnership.........
Pray for Bob's family, his wife, their kids and grandkids. Also , my aunt my two cousins and my parents. This is a shock to all of us.
