Kristen Marie Chamberlin

With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Kristen Marie Swan Chamberlin, 43, of Opelika, who left this world peacefully on August 3, 2025.

Kristen was a devoted mother, daughter, sister, and aunt whose love and loyalty to her family ran deep. She leaves behind her five children; Kyler Robert and Jace Allen Chamberlin, Michael Croix, Pierce Avery, and Seryn Marie Sparks, each of whom held a special place in her heart and brought endless pride and joy. Her love for them was constant and unwavering. Being their mother was the role she treasured most.

She is survived by her parents, Robert and Rene Samac, and James Swan; her siblings, Tiffany (Corey) Davis, Megan Samac, and Brian Samac; and her beloved nieces and nephews: Brody, Baylee, and Barrett Caswell, Teraa Beth Davis, Kara and Jaxson Uphold, and Cohen Pike. She also leaves behind many extended family members and dear friends, all of whom she cared for deeply.

She had a strong personality that made a lasting impression on those who knew her well. She enjoyed spending time with her family, cheering on the Auburn Tigers (War Damn Eagle), finding a good bargain, and caring for her pets.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents: Allen and Dorothy Aldrich, William Swan, Esther Cooley, and Charles Samac Jr. Their memory remained close to her heart throughout her life.

Though she will be deeply missed, her spirit lives on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her. 

This too shall pass. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18

Funeral services will be held Saturday, August 9th at Jeffcoat-Trant Funeral Home. Visitation is at 1:00pm with services starting at 2:00pm
