and the two performing it together:
Love to the West family.

It is sad news to just hear about your loss and gain of your mother to the heavens. No words can explain these kinds of feelings. Sometimes it’s just in the Music and for me our Native songs. The healing and encouragement of the music. I just read your ma’s interview, beautiful words to inspire many. You and your family will be in our prayers Irari/brother. Your mother is in the heavens.
