“We all love you, Beth.

See you on the other side,” Chapman tweeted at the time (viaCNN).

But love will have its way when it’s least expected.

Just six months later, Chapman met Francie Frane, herself a recent widow.

They went to a church service together, and quickly bonded over their shared grief.

Dog’s daughter Bonnie and stepdaughter Cecily have toldTMZthat they weren’t invited to the wedding.

The snub, she feels, is coming from their father.

This hasn’t sat well with Dog, but Cecily says their mother would have been proud.

“And if my dad has a problem with that, then that’s on him.”

“I believe that my mom would have wanted us there,” Bonnie Chapman added.

“You know, we are his family.

We are flesh and blood.”

Dog Chapman released a statement toE!

We pray for their health and happiness every day.

Beyond that statement, we wish to keep any family issues private."
