Mary Ellen Chapman Obituary (1936 - 2020)

Mary Ellen Chapman, 83, of San Leon, died peacefully on February 20, 2020, with her son, Troy, by her side. She was born June 4, 1936 in Festus, Missouri, to Dean and Irene Roberts. We are all sad to have to say goodbye but rejoice in knowing she is with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She gave 110% to everything in this life. When Mary Ellen wasn't taking care of her family, she was baking cakes for someone's birthday or heading out for her garden club duties. She loved being an active member of the community and will be remembered for the many trees and flowers she planted over the years. She is having a tremendous celebration in heaven with her granddaughter Ashley and her loving son Eric, her sisters June, Martha and brother Earl. All the other relatives and friends that have passed before her are all smiling to finally be reunited again. Praise the Lord she is no longer suffering in this life and is finally whole again and at peace. She adored all her grandchildren: Nickole, Jarrod, Cody, Katelyn, Sarah, Alex and her dearest Ashley. She would grin ear to ear with pride at how lucky she was to have so many beautiful great-grandchildren: Haven, Easton, Brooks, Asher, Crockett, Kennedy, Emerson, Bennett, Gabriel and Elias. The family will receive friends on Friday, March 6th, 2020 from 1:00pm to 2:00pm in the Chapel of Carnes Funeral Home, 3100 Gulf Freeway, Texas City, TX 77591. Mary Ellen's Celebration of Life will follow at 2:00 pm.
