No woman could have asked for a better memorial. Blessed be.

[@dolinaj1]

Mais oui.

[@sasha22674]

What a beautiful tribute! You honor her legacy by educating us. 🙏

[@kallasusort2986]

Wally, you were Blessed to have your wife so many decades - a rare thing these days. She was a strong woman to raise a big family and do civic duties for the Tribe. A Beautiful memory and tribute to her life.

[@lisachelton4599]

You have blessed all of us by sharing your life with us, and made us feel like we are extended family. This generation needs to know what love is, what marriage is, what family is... What a man is, what a woman is, and why traditional values are important. You are a man of great honor. I am sure that your wife is proud of you. I wish everyone could know the great love that you share with her.

Well said Lisa! Thank You! 🙂

[@theradiantsummit5206]

Lovely comment.

[@g3naV]

This is something I needed to hear. My mother made her journey to the next world 2 weeks ago. I never imagined my life without her. She just turned 62. I know with great confidence she’s ok with everyone she loves that have already transitioned and that she loves us more than anything in the world.

[@central_scrutinizr]

🥺 That is beautiful. Hugs to you

[@evanss6141]

Sorry for your loss.

[@gwendolynsinclair]

My sincere condolences to you🕊🌹

[@curtisgoss2669]

Grandfather Wally, I want to thank you so much for this testimony in honor of your wife. I lost my wife in 2016, and I, like you, was blessed to have been able to be at her side and holding her hand when she passed from this life, and when my wife left this world. Talking about these things are part of the healing process. You were blessed by her presence, and blessed by your memory of her. Our loves will be waiting for us when we leave our old bodies. You are in my thoughts, my prayers.

[@andreamoore6477]

i do think for some talking about it helps. i have noticed, for others it makes them uncomfortable. But i like talking about them. They are not forgotten. They DID exist. I like remembering. It is sad sometimes, but that is just part of it.

[@curtisgoss2669]

@@andreamoore6477 at some point it becomes a necessity to talk about them for one's own mental health. I think the difficulties arise when we can't (or will not) share common/similar experiences. Community is very important.

[@oldschool8292]

​@@curtisgoss2669 So true. My husband cruises over 17 yrs ago with me at his side. He had just turned 47 a couple of months before. We did spend 23 yrs together and for that I am forever grateful.

[@kirkterwilliger6407]

Sorry for your loss Mr. Brown. Your wife will always live in your heart and thoughts. And you sir, are a gift to many people.

[@CobaltLobo]

Today we had to put our beloved family cat to sleep today and sent him into the 4th world. Seeing your video come up in such perfect timing has brought great peace and comfort to my aching heart Wally. Thank you so much my brother. It is an honor to hear such a beautiful and comforting story of your wife and your eternal love for her. ❤️

[@tinah9059]

I'm so sorry for your loss ❤️

[@denisefallin8042]

I'm so sorry for your loss, Grandfather! But you honor her with this tribute to her. Thank you for sharing with us ❤️❤️❤️

I'm sorry about losing your wife. She seems like a wonderful lady. ❤️

[@lovelight9164]

You are an honorable man who shows just how deeply you loved your wife and you carry true respect for her. I am sorry to hear of your loss.

[@kastenolsen9577]

As long as she is in your heart she will always be there.

[@ambramarrs7325]

What a beautiful tribute to your beloved wife- thank you for sharing with us 😊

[@daveadalian4116]

So it goes... What we are, the stuff we are made from, is eternal. Nothing is ever lost.

[@Thedaleb1]

You honor your wife with such loving words, she will be waiting for you in the next world. Thank you for the wisdom you share with your videos.

[@chuckheppner4384]

Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear Wally, just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer. To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die. "Only people who are capable of loving strongly can also suffer great sorrow, but this same necessity of loving serves to counteract their grief and heals them." ~ Leo Tolstoy

[@rmccauley78]

I believe she is with the creator in heaven and is with him in spirit always. Love is more capable of things than we realize in this world.

[@CaptRavenous]

Hearing the emotion in your voice made this hard to watch. I can hear the love rising up in you, choking your voice with its power, because you miss her so much. It is good to still feel that love. Thank you for sharing this tribute, and for being my teacher.

[@arjunataylor]

A heart felt speech, Wally. You have our condolences and yes, you’ll meet again, on this I am certain.

[@k8eekatt]

A year!? Already? It seems like this just happened. I am so greatful your son has taken up this tradition of education also. What a rich blessed life you shared.

[@marthaz]

Your long term partnership is a lesson in compromise and dedication for us all grandfather. And your value of how you treat your wife is a much needed reminder to men who think they will never have to answer for mistreating their wives/women. Thank you and bless you. 🙏💕🌈

[@paulstan9828]

You are so lucky to have enjoyed her company for so many years.

[@thomasramsey9162]

WITH WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN TEACHING YOU KNOW YOU'LL SEE HER IN THE NEXT LIFE, AND THAT WILL BE A GREAT REUNION FOR BOTH...

[@pinkmoon831]

I'm sorry for your loss Wally, may she rest in peace 🙏

[@RT69hemicharger]

Nice tribute. She is a strong and beautiful woman. The perfect example for young women to follow. Our world needs more like her. You were truly blessed to love such an amazing lady. All good peoplel will be together in the afterlife. ♥️

[@NYCHFAN]

What a beautiful, loving tribute to your wife. It sounds like she is a wonderful woman who is greatly missed, not only by you, but your community also. She will be right there, with your daughter, waiting as you enter the next Life. (But I hope you stick around here for a long time, I learn so much from you!)

[@critters16]

My heart felt condolences for the passing of your dear wife.

[@kellyjohns6612]

Bless you and all your loved ones, Wally.

[@justiceparker5624]

It has also been just over one year since my wife was murdered and made her journey. My mother was Dine. I was taken from her at a young age. I didn’t know where I really came from. It was a secret. My father spoke the Navajo language as a missionary. My mother was a placement student. I was their oldest child. She too has made her transition along with my dad. I feel them speak to me daily. I honor them. They prepare a way before me now. Sometimes I have to remember that beauty comes from suffering. Attitude is everything. Thank you for giving me strength with your words which are carried by a spirit of strength and truth.

[@lindamoses3697]

My foster brother was a placement student. We loved him.

[@kendrasue7265]

All love and joy awaiting us in the next world how blessed we are indeed. Thank you for sharing your experience of love and joy you had with your wife in this world. Much love to you and your family. 🦋

[@jofrazier-hansen4097]

This is a beautiful tribute to her. I know you must miss her a great deal, but I celebrate the fact that you got the chance to be together for as long as you had. It's wonderful that her spirit is still with you. I wish you joy in keeping her close to your heart.

[@robertforsythe3280]

The Love you had for each other will connect both of you forever. Just think of her or mention her name and she will know. Love has no limits, you will be with her again and she knows the one-ness now. Thank you for your testimony.

Mr. Brown, I have the upmost respect for you and your traditional ways. I wish I lived by you so I could learn all the knowledge that you posses. Your wife seemed like not only a wonderful wife, mother, teacher, and community leader, but a humble historian and a great humanitarian as well. I send you much love and light. I'm a descendant of Choctaw. Thank you for your inspirations and this channel.

Such an endearing love and wife of 53 years, Mr. Brown. Much love to and your family of your passing a year ago. I also held hands with family members and stayed with them and helped them through their illnesses. My parents were married 63 years and were farmers . My great great great Grandmother was full blooded Cherokee. Also, Happy Indigenous Peoples'Day today. Also I love the singer and song writer, Buffy Sainte Marie for the struggles of Native American and First Nations. Yes sir, learn American history from its creation on all sides.

[@DoctorSuezz]

Eternal life is a promise from the Holy People when we keep those covenants. It is refreshing to know we are only parted from our loved ones for just a moment in time, yet families can be eternal. Thank you for your teachings and your insights you send our way to be better people. Now I understand why the lady on the Navajo Nation said she could see Spirits surrounding my daughter, grand daughters and myself. What a blessing to be welcomed in by some of the most humble and kind people of your great Nation. May you always feel blessed.

[@mousiebrown1747]

Thank you for speaking. Those who we lost are waiting for us.

[@onedazinn998]

Lovely tribute to your wife...if only more people would speak with honor about their spouses & value traditions. But I love that you also welcomed someone into your loving heart that is not fully of your Navajo people & valued her ancestors. Thank you for sharing such treasures as a great teacher would.

[@MGeofire]

Thank you, Wally Brown, for sharing your story with all of us. And thank your wife for sharing, with all of us, her spirit and her family. We are all better people because we have received your gifts. We share in your feeling of missing your wife and feel that she will be waiting for you when your time is come. May the Great Spirit watch over you and bring you comfort until then...

Such beautiful words about such a wonderful person. Non-native here, I’ve been watching your channel since last October, coincidentally, after I lost one of my best friends from childhood.
