My name is Carina Chappell and I am Nolan's cousin.

On 10/3/2023 on the North Shore beaches of Hawaii, Nolan passed away in a tragic drowning incident while surfing. He was 21 years old. Nolan is the only son to Tim Chappell and Stephanie Palmer and the only brother to Madison Chappell. He also leaves behind a Nephew, Winter, along with a long list of family members and dear friends who love him dearly. Our family is devastated by this tragic loss. Nolan was such an amazing person and is loved and cherished by so many people.

I am reaching out on behalf of my family for your help. My Uncle, Aunt and Cousin are working together to set up Nolan's memorial but we all know that there are behind the scenes unexpected costs which are starting to really grow. Getting Nolan home is priority along with his personal belongings. Aside from that, there are medical fee's, memorial/ funeral costs and so much more that is overwhelming them from all directions. His Mom, Dad and sister will have traveling costs along with time off of work to plan, travel, mourn and figure out how to move forward in this life without their best guy. Any way to make this easier on them is what our plan is here, no one is ever prepared to lose a child.

We know times are hard and no donation is too small. If you are not able to donate please share this fundraiser with your family and friends. Lets try to bring as much ease to Nolan's Dad, Mom and Sister as we can during this difficult time.

On behalf of my family, I would like to thank you all for your continued support during this difficult time. I know that our family feels the love and support from you all. We can all see how special he was to you. Please feel free to leave any kind words/messages here for his Dad, Mom and Sister and extended family to be able to see as we all get through this hard time.

Thank you,

Carina Chappell
