Richard Kenneth “Dick” Chapman, 67, Altus, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Friday, June 19, 2020 at the Jackson County Memorial Hospital. A private family burial will be held at the Olustee Cemetery under the direction of the Kincannon Funeral Home and Cremation Service. Memorial services will be 2:00 PM Tuesday, June 23, 2020 at Altus Christian Fellowship/Thrive Church with Glenn Shaffer officiating. The family will receive friends from 6:00 – 8:00 PM Monday, June 22, 2020 at the Kincannon Funeral Home.

Dick was born on November 27, 1952 in Altus, Oklahoma to Orvel Kenneth and Carolyn (Howard) Chapman. He grew up in Olustee and Altus and graduated from Altus High School with the class of 1971. Dick married Opal (Wilson) on August 6, 1976 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. He pastored in Altus for thirty-three years. Dick had a life-long passion for people, teaching the word and bringing others into a personal relationship with Christ. Known for his quick wit and one-liners, his sly grin was often paired with twinkling eyes, eyes that suggested he was again considering sneaking up on one of his grandchildren. There were no strangers in his home, where he'd greet you with a hug only a father could give. Family and friends always enjoyed an open invitation to a good meal, movie, and to sit down and listen to some of his favorite songs. Above all else his greatest legacy and joy were his calling to be a husband, father, and grandfather. 

In lieu of flowers or other gifts, contributions to help with unexpected funeral and additional costs would be greatly appreciated by the family.
