Earlier this week, Stacy and Jim Chapin got the call that no parent ever wants to receive. “We're just trying to process it,” said Stacy Chapin, Ethan Chapin’s mother. “It's not a call that you think that you're going to, have to speak with the funeral home directors, and the FBI and have it hit national news.” They received the call their son Ethan Chapin had been killed. Ethan’s siblings were the ones who shared the news with their parents. Ethan was among four students who were found dead in a home near the University of Idaho over the weekend. They are said to have been killed with an “edged weapon” on Sunday night. Ethan was originally from Skagit County and graduated from Mount Vernon High School in 2021. Ethan was a triplet. His parents say they were all so close that they even attended college together. They all just celebrated their 20th birthday a few weeks ago. “We have these other two kids that are very impacted by this and they need to be lifted up and cared for,” said Stacy Chapin. They say Ethan was the comedian of the family and was a lover of country music and all kinds of sports. “Anything, he played it. He played it literally,” his parents laughed. “We just watched a thing from the university, he was a spike ball champion, a volleyball champion. I mean, he just literally would play and do anything,” Stacy Chapin said.
