Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman said a final “aloha” to wife Beth this weekend with a traditional Hawaiian “paddle-out” memorial.
The reality TV star wiped away tears as dozens of locals joined Saturday’s public service before the “paddle-out'”for his 51-year-old wife who lost her battle with cancer on Wednesday.
“She said, ‘Please Hawaiian style … please do this right,'” Chapman, 66, said on the beach in Waikiki,according to the Daily Mail.
“She loved Hawaii and she loved people. The people mostly she loved.”
The reality star was dressed in a white shirt and shoes with stonewashed jeans as he addressed the memorial where mourners also made a traditional Hawaiian “oli” chant, according to the Mail.
