April 28, 1963- Oct. 21, 2016

We lost our husband, brother, friend and uncle too soon. Though we grieve his loss, we are comforted knowing that he is at peace and resting. 

Born in Ogden and raised in the Salt Lake City area, he maintained friendships from elementary school through Bingham High and the University of Utah. If you knew Al you had a friend.

Al was a man who enjoyed many pleasures, from skiing, hiking and biking the Wasatch Front to simply sitting land listening to music or reading a book. 

Life for Al was most special when spending it with friends and family, but his deepest love was his wife, Nubia. If you know this couple you know the unwavering devotion they shared. Life without Al will be difficult but doable because of the love we store within.

A long-time employee of Home Depot, he made many friends with customers and employees.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Marcella Chapa.  

He is survived by his wife, Nubia; siblings Larry (Madeleine) Chapa, Tillie Young (Rich), Dick (Joni), Mary Davenport (De), Philip Chapa, Connie Bennett, Peter (Peter Jr.) Chapa, and Benny Chapa; and many nieces and nephews.

A celebration of life was held at Starks Funeral Parlor on Oct. 27.
