Gordon Raymond Chapman

June 10, 1946 – September 12, 2025

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Gordon Chapman, born June 10, 1946, who left us on September 12, 2025.

Gordon is survived by his wife Colaine Chapman and two children, Monica Schmidt (Gordon Schmidt), Noelan (Elaine) Chapman; as well as his cherished grandchildren, Lauren Lungal, Jordyn (Miles) Pennington, Alayna Schmidt, and Landon Schmidt. Dylan Chapman, Joclyne (Liam) Dow, Kristen Chapman.

Gordon spent his life doing what he loved—entrepreneurship with family, fishing and camping, and seeing his family grow with many great grandchildren to love. His home was always a welcoming place, whether you came for a chat, or a lovely meal from his wife, their home was always open.

When the time came to retire, Gordon and Colaine became snowbirds heading to Arizona where much of their time was spent with loving friends and hosting family. Gordon took pride in his hobbies and sharing them with his grandchildren, whether it be his magic tricks in their young years, making the perfect jerky or Christmas toffee, or how to work a fishing rod. Gordon shared all his interests.

He will be deeply missed by all who knew him, and the many fond memories he created will live on in the hearts of his family and friends.

Rest in peace, Pops. We love you.

In lieu of flowers a donation can be made in Gordon’s name directly to the Alberta Lung Association.
