Buzzards Bay, MA - Robert Chapman, age 85 years, of Buzzards Bay died on January 21st, 2019 of natural causes.

Robert and his bride moved to Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts and he landed a teaching job at the brand new West Bridgewater HS as Chemistry and Physics teacher and also a coach of a variety of sports in his 34 years at the school.
