Deepest sympathy to the Chapman family. My parents, Jim & carolyn Johnson, and family were good friends with Mr. & Mrs. John Chapman. I knew cheryl & Emmett the most, as my brother, barry, played baseball with Emmett. The johnsons loved the Chapman family, and we extend our love to you all. May God comfort your hearts at this difficult time.
