JONATHAN G. CHAPPEL
MILTON - Jonathan G. Chappel, 58, died early Thursday morning, June 10, 2010, in the Vermont Respite House in Williston. Jonathan was born in St. Albans on Jan. 14, 1952, the son of Evelyn Chappel.

Jon is survived by his children, Jessica Chappel and her partner, Timothy Saunders, of Essex, Jennifer Chappel of Kingman, Ariz., and Jon Chappel and wife, Ula, of Tempe, Ariz.; and by his grandchildren, Caleb and Rue. He is also survived by his fraternal twin brother, Jim Chappel and his wife, Marie, of St. Albans, and their daughters, Nickie and Michelle Chappel. He was predeceased by his mother, Evelyn; and his faithful canine companion, Mandy. Visiting hours will be held on Monday June 14, from 5 to 8 p.m. in the Minor Funeral Home in Milton.
