After Chapman finished school in North Carolina and at BYU, they settled in Henderson, Nevada where they raised their children and developed life-long friendships. Since none of their children went back to Nevada, they decided to move to Orem to be near the majority of their children and be closer to her relatives. They found a home, stored their belongings in the wood shop Chapman added and in 1990 left for their mission in Adalaide, Australia. They lived in the Orem home until Dorothy could no longer see well enough to care for herself. She was fiercely independent but with the loss of eyesight, she agreed to start living with her children. She settled into her son Mike's home in Spanish Fork. He and his wife Judy loved having her be a part of their family.   Dorothy served diligently in Primary and Relief Society and was an example of service and dedication to her Savior. She loved Him and followed his teachings. She and Chapman were able to serve in the Timpanogos Temple for several years and she loved each day she could serve there. She also cared for her father for many years. She enjoyed tatting, sewing and helped finish many of Chapman's woodworking projects. She loved her family and friends.   Dorothy was preceded in death by her husband Chapman, brothers Allan and Robert Davis, a son-in-law Thomas Johnson and a great-granddaughter Krystal Wooten.   Viewings will be Friday, April 13 from 6-8 p.m. at Walker Sanderson Mortuary 646 E 800 N Orem, UT. and Saturday, April 14 from 9-10:30 a.m. at the LDS church at 762 E 1200 N in Orem.
