InterTribal presents:
Today’s show is prerecorded for your listening pleasure.
Good morning and welcome to your weekend.
Today’s show is dedicated to Emma Henderson, a Navajo elder from the Four Corners area of New Mexico. Emma walked on to the spirit world due to Covid-19 complications on Sunday, January 24, 2021. She was around 75 years old.
Emma leaves behind John Henderson, her husband, and other family members. Sadly, I do not have all the family details. For over 30 years, Emma and John ran a Navajo Work Camp program that shared the values of Navajo life with anyone who was interested. I can only imagine how many people around the world are mourning her passing at this time.
I am including the link to an article written by Ray Gryder in 2014: A Navajo Way of Life: Living Like You Mean It.
I would like to thank Ray Gryder for sharing this information with me. Ray is a good friend of Emma and John Henderson. He had appeared as a special quest on InterTribal a couple of times sharing his experiences with the Navajo Work Camp.
Please send up positive prayers for Emma’s journey and supportive prayers for John, the Henderson family and all the friends grieving today.
Winter Weather and Staying Warm:
According to the weather forecast, we can expect a high of 40 degrees, followed by a nightly low of 26 degrees. My phone app contains a winter weather advisory warning of a major winter storm that is expected to arrive late tonight. This storm could bring a mix of snow, freezing rain and sleet. This makes for extreme winter conditions. Please remain safe.
If the power goes out, please be sure to check on your neighbors in a safe, socially distant sort of way.
Thank you for tuning in and I hope you enjoy the music selected.
Walk in Peace,
Tall Feathers
