Paulette Elaine Chapin

May 3, 1959 - December 3, 2021

Paulette Elaine (Hall) Chapin passed away on December 3rd, 2021 after a valiant fight with a chronic illness. Her beloved husband, Roger Chapin, and cherished sister, Patty Daly, were by her side when she passed. Paulette was born on May 3rd, 1959 in Ashland Kentucky. She grew up in Lexington, Ky. with her sister and lived there for most of her early adulthood. Paulette was a spiritual woman who loved the Lord and rejoiced in his Word. She was an ever-curious soul who loved to cook, travel and engage in meaningful conversation and debate. She adored her husband, her sister, her family, and her treasured dogs Beau and Spanky. Paulette’s wanderlust spirit and love of exploration kept her traveling throughout her years visiting places like Washington DC, Pacific Coast, Texas, Mexico, Martinique, the Caribbean and more. Traveling started at a young age visiting family in many states. She briefly lived in Oklahoma, then ultimately settled in Florida. Paulette loved to host parties and to gather her friends and family together to celebrate life, laugh and create special moments. Her favorite place was the beach. The waves, sand, and sun brought her immense joy and peace. She spent her most recent birthday at the beach and while we wish we had more birthdays to celebrate with her, we will cherish those precious memories. She had a dream to write an autobiographical book and share her vast experiences, lessons learned and hopes for the future. Paulette is survived by her husband Roger Chapin, sister Patricia Daly, two brothers (William and Curtis Hall), half-brother Donny Hysel, two close uncles (Bobby and Tim Williams), two aunts (Kathy Miller and Clarisse Hutchins), two step-children (Rachel, Josh), four grandchildren (Ryan, Jacob, Bailey, Bryce), two nephews Ben and Sam and two nieces Jenna and Jillian. Along with cousins and countless other family members near and far. Paulette was also blessed with many special friends. While her dear friend Launa preceded her in death, she was an instrumental part of her life and her “partner in crime” as Paulette would say. Patty Hastings filled that place in her heart between friendship and family where bonds are made that never die. Gina, Karen, Katie, Steve, Michele, Jerry, and all her numerous friends through the years meant the world to her. Spending time with family and friends was her favorite pastime. We will celebrate her life on Saturday December 11th at Boza and Roel Funeral Home at 4730 N. Armenia Ave. Visitation will begin at 1pm and a service will follow at 2pm.
