Grieving in Indian Country

I just heard that Bruce died - oh, too bad, too, too bad. He was so important -- he has influenced generations and inspired them to look for the truths and sustenance in traditional culture. That will go on. What an amazing life. Well, my thoughts are with all of you up at Skokomish.

People are very upset, as one may see in this response:
"A very sad time at Skokomish. The passing of suBiyay closes a very important chapter in history here - - and in Indina Ocuntry in the US. There will be something going on at the Longhouse tomorrorw afternoon and the big thing will be on Saturday here att he longhouse. I have no idea how that can possibly work. I am suret here will be thousands of people. "
