He was born in June 1925, the son of the late
Penrose and Mariette Comfort Chapman of

University before serving his country in World
War II with the 90th Army Division, 359th

dedicated his life to missionary service. He

education. There, he met Grace Paulsen from
Thomaston, Maine, and they were married on
Aug. 22, 1951.
He worked with Oak Hill’s Fellowship in
Minnesota, served as assistant pastor in
Webster Groves and taught at Midwest Bible and
Missionary Institute in St. Louis. He and
Grace joined The Evangelical Alliance Mission,
TEAM and worked as missionaries for 36 years
on the island of Curacao in the Netherlands

Wilbur said that the Bible verses in Romans
11:33-12:2 greatly influenced and directed his
life.
"Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and
knowledge of God! How unsearchable his
judgements, and his paths beyond tracing
out! "Who has the mind of the Lord? Or who has
been his counselor?" "Who has ever given to
God, that God should repay him?" For from him
and through him and to him are all things. To
him be the glory forever! Amen."
"Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of
God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living
sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is
your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform
any longer to the pattern of this world, but
be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
They you will be able to test and approve what
God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect
will."
His primary goal in life was to walk with God
and glorify Him. He desired only to be
remembered as a servant of the Lord, blessed
by God.
He is survived by Grace, his wife of almost 56
years. A brother, Penrose Embree Chapman II,
predeceased him. His four children and their
spouses are Wilbur Jr. and Morgan Chapman of
