Boomer graduated from Albion High School, attended Central Michigan University and was most recently employed as a Logistic Agent for Landstar System in Augusta and Belize. Prior to his move to Augusta, GA, he worked at Frank Beck Chevrolet in Hillsdale, MI.
Living life to the fullest was Boomers outlook on life. At a young age he developed a love for music, a passion for sports, and a genuine appreciation for culture and community. While attending CMU he learned the art of being an entrepreneur, writing lyrics for his band, and recording albums. His favorite days of the year were opening day of Tigers, Thanksgiving Day Lions game and the Masters Tournament. Connecting with his neighbors and community was a favorite pastime of Boomers. You would regularly find Boomer, with his infectious smile, playing the piano in a room full of friends. Or sitting on his porch chatting with neighbors while strumming his guitar and listening to his favorite vinyl albums. He thoroughly enjoyed attending cultural events to broaden his knowledge of art and music. Boomer will be remembered for his blond locks, his warm and welcoming personality, and zest for life.
He leaves to cherish his memories, his parents, Keith and Michele Chapman of Albion, brother Bart (Nancy) Chapman, sister Suzanne (James) McKenzie, nephews: Haydon Chapman, Harrison Chapman, JD McKenzie, several aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family and friends, and last, but not least, his beloved dog companion, Murphy.
