A life remembered

A life remembered

Today was the viewing and service for Chief Billy “Redwing” Tayac.  People from all walks of life came to honor a man who personified what being a leader and activist is all about. We learned about the man who was instrumental in the American Indian Movement; who mentored many that have now moved on to leadership positions; and gave solace to those needing a place to stay or an ear to listen.

It was good that many in the Tayac Sundance family came to say goodbye to the Chief.  A call for unity and peace was the theme. Thank you my friends.

To Billy, please say hello to Shirley and the others who are gathered in her spacious kitchen beyond the stars.
