James Russell Chaplin Obituary
We are sad to announce that on March 15, 2018 we had to say goodbye to James Russell Chaplin (Noble, Oklahoma), born in Onslow, Iowa. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of James Russell Chaplin to show support.
He is survived by: his wife Barbara Lowry Chaplin of Noble, OK; his daughters, Abigail Chaplin-Kyzer (Daniel Kyzer) of Corinth, TX and Kathleen Grzybowski (Dawid Grzybowski) of Moore, OK; his sister Kay Chaplin Saelens of Loveland, CO; his mother-in-law Aileen Lowry Allison of Norman, OK; and his sons, Steve Chaplin of Indiana and Kevin Chaplin of Kentucky. He is also survived by nieces and nephews.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Hobart W.C. Furbunch Award for Outstanding Field Research in Geology at the University of Houston, a scholarship fund founded by Jim Chaplin and his colleagues to encourage and promote field research by the next generation of young geologists and scholars.
