Chance Murdock

On the afternoon of March 2, 2019, Chance W. Murdock (Chauch), 30, beloved husband, son, nephew, cousin, grandson, and friend, passed away suddenly as a result of complications from a condition he had battled with courage and quiet dignity for several years of his life.

Chance will be missed everyday by his wife, Shycole Murdock; his father, Steve Murdock; half brother, Paul Valentine; grandparents, Dave and Uvon Murdock; several aunts, uncles, and cousins, and many great friends.

We know Chance is now with his mother, Teresa; and grandparents, Carl and Ruth North; and great-grandparents, Millie and Vernon Mortensen; and is loved here on Earth as well as in heaven.

Chance was born January 22, 1989, on Super Bowl Sunday. From the get go, Chance was a gift from God for his parents. Chance had a heart of gold and a will of iron. Any obstacle in front of him was fought with courage and grace.

Chance married Shycole Simons on August 24, 2018, in Chesterfield, Idaho. They resided in Rigby at the time of his death.

Chance was an avid hunter and fisherman. He loved being in a tractor and bailing hay. Chance W. rode for the brand in work, life and in character. He was a prince and a fighter. His song of pain in this world will fill many people with the incredible joy he felt for life. Long live the beauty that comes down and through and onto us all.
