Nancy Chapman Obituary

Nancy Grayce Chapman entered the courts of her Lord King Jesus, on the Lords day July 8, 2012.

 

She temporarily leaves behind, her beloved husband of fifty-six years, Duane; their only child and son, Kerry; his wife Kyra; and their daughter, Nancy's much adored grandchild, Noelle Grace.

 

Nancy was born in Waterloo, Iowa in March of 1937. Her father, a minister of the Gospel of Christ, moved the family to California to pastor a church; but not without a neighbor lady and her young son Duane. The two families were loosely connected over the years, and Nancy did not escape Duane's notice. The rest is history, as they say.

 

Both Nancy and Duane were involved over the years in the work of sponsoring Vietnamese family members' into America. One such family, the first to start the process for others, are established in Camarillo, the Quan's; Quan, Kim, Yun, and Nickie. They were much loved by Nancy. She was also involved in several church choirs over the decades, and was known to have a beautiful voice. Both she and her granddaughter Noelle enjoyed singing hymns together at the piano. Now she's singing along with a heavenly chorus, we're sure.

 

Our hope of being reunited with her is established in the same historical evidences that she herself embraced and trusted in; the life work of Christ on our behalf; the punishment He took in our place which we ultimately deserved; and the genuine hope given through the resurrection that sealed the deal. We are therefore assured of our reunification one day, not yet disclosed. See you soon Nancy, Mom, Grandma…………………….
