MARIA SUE CHAPMAN, DAUGHTER OF STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN, DIES IN ACCIDENT AT FAMILY HOME
NASHVILLE, TN…5/21/08… At approximately 5pm on the afternoon of Wednesday May 21st, Maria Sue Chapman, 5 years old and the youngest daughter to Steven and Mary Beth Chapman was struck in the driveway of the Chapman home in Franklin, TN. Maria was rushed to Vanderbilt Childrens Hospital in Nashville, transported by LifeFlight, but died of her injuries there. Maria is one of the close knit family’s six children and one of their three adopted daughters.
This morning I learned of the terrible, terrible tragedy in the Chapman family. Their pain is unimmaginable. I can’t imagine trying to mourn the loss of your child, while trying to help your older child cope with his incredible guilt that he was driving the car that hit his sister. Iam praying fervently for the Chapman family this morning.
Just yesterday, on my oldest daughter’s 11th birthday, I was listening to his new song, Cinderella, and crying thinking of my baby and how old she’s gotten in a just a few short years.
Please take the time to watch this short video tribute to Maria and say a prayer for the Chapman family. It’s evident the love he had for his youngest daughter.
