Bill was born the son of Helen (O’ Brian) and William Chapman on November 6, 1945 in Evergreen Park, Illinois.

Following retirement, he devoted his time to mowing the lawn in specific patterns, working out at the YMCA, playing poker with his Kuno Trail buddies, and a good glass of Crowne Royal Black. He fulfilled a lifelong dream watching the Chicago Cubs win the World Series in 2016. Bill was a friend that a friend would like to have. He dedicated his time and commitment to each and every family member and friend and will be remembered for his sense of humor and witty personality.
