It is with heavy hearts that the family
of Vincent R. Chappell (Vin) announce his
passing at the Sackville Memorial Hospital on February 6, 2021 at the
age of 92.
Born in Baie Verte, NB, Vincent was the
son of the late Ray and Juanita Chappell. Vin was formerly
employed with Atlantic Industries until his retirement.
Vin spent almost the last decade living
on his own in his cottage with lots of family around. Always
cooking for everyone and mowing the football size yard twice a
week. His claim to fame was his selective hearing; never
"hearing" what he needed to, only what he wanted
to. His love of shopping and all things food, his inability
to hide his favoritism for Sam and more recently baby
Vinny.
Vincent will be sadly missed by his two
daughters, Barbara Tower and Patti (Steven) Reade; daughter in law,
Lori Chappell; his grandchildren, Leslie, Amy, Lacy, Katie, Emily,
Sam, Sarah, Sawyer, Luke, and Morgan; eleven great grandchildren, many
nieces, nephews, and his "special friend", the lawn
mower.
Besides his parents, Vincent was
predeceased by his wife, Launa; brothers, Lloyd and Garnet; his son,
Terry; his son in law, Brian Tower, and great granddaughter, Willow
Campbell.
Arrangements are under the care and
guidance of Jones Funeral Home, 70 Bridge
Street, Sackville, NB (506-364-1300). At Vincent's request,
there will be no visitation or funeral service. A private
family memorial will be held at a later date.
Donations in memory of Vincent may be
made to the Westford Nursing Home
