Carol Elaine Chapman, 71, of Monticello, passed away at 4:01 AM on Tuesday, September 21, 2021 at Arbor Rose assisted living facility, Monticello.
Carol was born on June 1, 1950, in Urbana, Illinois, the sixth child of Wilbur Arthur and Kathryn Lucille (Johnson) Davis. She married Marvin Chapman in Elizabethtown, Illinois on September 11, 1990. He preceded her in death on February 7, 2009.
Carol is survived by her mother, Lucille Morgan of Monticello; five brothers, Dennis Davis of Monticello, Richard Davis of Tuscola, Thomas (Gracie) Davis of Taylors, South Carolina, David (Sheila) Davis of Monticello and Frank Davis of Champaign; four sisters, Mary Ann (Jessie) Manning of Pooler, Georgia, Patricia Davis of Cisco, Joan Davis (John Farnam) of Bloomington and Rita Davis of Omaha, Nebraska; a stepbrother, Flo (Faith) Morgan of Clarksville, Tennessee; a stepsister, Tamara Morgan (Nancy Turgeon) of Sacramento, California; a stepson, Joshua Chapman of Denver, Colorado and an "honorary daughter" Allie Austin Gilbert of New Smyrna Beach, Florida.
She was preceded in death by her father, Wilbur Davis; her stepfather, Irv Chief Morgan; her sisters, Sandy Roberts and Suzanne Doering and her stepbrother, Irv Morgan, Jr.
Carol worked as a bookkeeper for businesses in Champaign and Elizabethtown, Illinois and Hartwell, Georgia at Meadow Gold Dairy, Stout Trucking Company, Children's Palace, and Walmart. She was a member of the American Business Women's Association. Carol was an active member at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Elizabethtown where she served as a religious education teacher, an officer of the St. Ann's Altar Society, head of the Women's Auxiliary, and a member of the parish Director Committee. At St. Philomena Catholic Church in Monticello, Carol served as a religious education teacher, sang in the choir, and was a member of the Gems of Faith Committee.
Carol was gifted with a heart of gold and was a warm-hearted person who enjoyed people – mostly her many nephews and nieces. She could not come to visit them without carrying with her a bag of goodies to hand out. She was known for her wonderful home-baked chocolate chip cookies, which earned her the affectionate title by family of "Cookie Woman." When she relocated to Monticello in 2007, she truly missed no longer being able to hold the annual Fall cookout that Marvin and she hosted for family and friends at Honeysuckle Acres in Cave-in- Rock, IL. She was an avid fan of the Fighting Illini and the Monticello Sages. She enjoyed knitting afghans for the family.
