Patricia Jo Chapman Knight Wiseman, 72, the daughter of Alvin B. and Mable L. Chapman, went to our heavenly father on Saturday April 16, 2011 following a long illness. She was a kind, gentle and loving individual. She was a graduate of Forest Grove High School. After high school, she lived in Seattle, Washington, working in the office of a steel factory. She married Jon Erin Knight, a commercial artist, who preceded her in death. Her father also preceded her in death. Patricia returned to Oregon and worked for several years in the tax department of Washington County and also was a saleslady for Copper Craft. She wed Charles Wiseman, a Hillsboro Police Officer in 1963. Patricia quit work to raise her family of four children. She dearly loved her children and grandchildren: Sean Erin Knight, son, of Clackamas, Oregon and three grandchildren Victor, Alex and Selena; Cherri Bower, daughter, of Corona, California and three grandchildren Kyrie, Samantha, Brandon; Christopher Wiseman, son , of Canby Oregon and three grandchildren, Brittni, Alexandria, Cyndey; Frances Bomgardner, daughter of Portland, Oregon and four grandchildren Christine, Paris, Josephine and Logan. Patricia is survived by her by her mother, Mable Chapman of Oregon City. and by her siblings: Ronald N. Chapman, Hillsboro, Oregon; Nancy L. Jones, Spokane, Washington, Betty J. Paola, Oregon City, Oregon. Progressively ill health in midlife made it necessary for her to live in a series of care facilities and nursing homes, but she kept her caring, loving nature and will be greatly missed. But now she is at peace. PDF Printable Version
