Other members of Chapman’s family mourned the loss once the news spread. Daughter Cecily Chapman shared a photo of herself, Beth Chapman and Robinson.

“I honestly can’t believe this is real…. My good friend, my team mate, and sometimes uncle to me. The “I don’t fuck with you” bestie driving down the road after a capture/hunt listening to that song. You were the best wing man anyone could ever have. You were loved by so many of us, our family and friends definitely just took a huge loss,” Chapman wrote. “You are a legend, you’ll never be forgotten my dear friend. I’m sure my mom welcomed you in when you got up there say hi to her for me. We were always the three partners in crime in the fields always making everyone laugh.”
