Hal and Liz Chamberlain

Welcome to the tribute page of my parents, Hal and Liz Chamberlain, born in 1930 and 1931 in Marietta, Ohio. They were high school sweethearts and married in 1951, an amazing couple representing a life well lived. As born again Christians, they honored God through their commitment to each other, raising their 10 children with loving, traditional family values and always working to make their community and country a better place to live. Their pride and joy was the multitude of grandchildren that followed. Mom went to heaven in April of 1999 and Dad joined her in May of 2021. A picture is worth a thousand words, so I hope you enjoy this "Memoir" of photos, videos, stories and music. Please feel free to return as oft as you like to remember and reminisce. -Curtis and Laura C.
