Brandon James Chapin went to be one of God's Angels in heaven on  Sunday, December 10, 2023, surrounded by his loving family at the young age of 31. He was born on September 3, 1992, to Peggy and Randy Chapin at St. Mary's Hospital in Green Bay. Brandon had battled a brain tumor (Hypothalamic pilocytic astrocytoma) since the age of 13. No one could top his jokes or his artistry and especially his warm and thoughtful heart! He also had a never-ending supply of movie and TV quotes. He loved his family so much and especially his parents, siblings, and all his nieces and nephews. His dog Axle was his best pet and favorite furry friend ever!
