Quentin J. Chapek
Quentin J. Chapek, 21, Cadott, passed away unexpectedly Thursday, March 24, 2022.
Quentin was born Nov. 22, 2000, the son of Ron Chapek and Lynn Haroldson, of Cadott.
A true farm kid from the start, Quentin grew up working with his dad and grandpa on the dairy farm in Cadott.
He graduated from Cadott High School in May 2018. After graduation, he continued working on the dairy farm and also attended CVTC to get his Class A CDL license. Although farming was his first love, he also branched out to do a little trucking, from time to time.
Quentin married Mallory Johns Dec. 7, 2020, in Chippewa Falls, and they joyfully welcomed a beautiful son, Colter Lennon, into their family Oct. 23, 2021. Colter is Quentin’s “mini-me,” and is the pride and joy, of both Quentin and Mallory.
A very talented guy, Quentin could figure out how to fix almost anything and was always willing to give it a try. Focus may not have been his biggest strength, but his impulsive nature was both one of his most endearing, and most maddening, qualities.
He loved working the big farm equipment, hunting, fishing, four-wheeling, arguing, and spending time with his family and friends. He was always willing to talk to anyone, even from a young age, and brought so much light and love into the world.
Quentin would bring people meals, just because, and always had a little smirk on his face, making it hard to tell if he was serious or joking.
He is survived by his beloved wife – Mallory Johns, Cadott; their son – Colter; his parents – Ron Chapek and Lynn Haroldson, Cadott; mother-in-law and father-in-law – Carla and Brian Johns Sr., Chippewa Falls; brother – Jordan Haroldson (Steph), Jim Falls; sister– Alexis Chapek (Eli), Rochester, Minn.; brother – Bryce Chapek, Lake Wissota; paternal grandparents – Robert and Darlys Chapek, Cadott; sister-in-law – Samantha Johns (Cole), Eau Claire; brotherin- law – Brian Johns Jr., Cadott; and many aunts; uncles; cousins and dear friends.
He was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents – Rodney and Florence Haroldson, Cornell.
A celebration of life service will be held in honor of Quentin’s life Tuesday, April 5, at 11 a.m., at Big Drywood Lutheran Church in Cadott. A lunch, and time of fellowship and sharing will follow.
