How Wynonna has the strength to sing during this ceremony for her beloved mother is beyond me. Love, comfort, prayers to Wy, Ashley, Larry, extended family, friends who are feeling this incredible loss. Love Can A Bridge is a song to stand the test of time. May we never forget Naomi’s value to country music & her community.
That's what resilience looks like if you ask me. Wynona is a woman of great strength that she clearly got from her mother..I pray that God will continue to carry her, Ashley, Larry and the rest of the family.
Although she may be Physically gone from this Earth, Naomi didn't die! Her Spirit will continue to Live and Breathe within Wynonna and I absolutely saw that in this Performance tonight and Naomi's Spirit will be apart of Wynonna for all of her remaining days and when Wynonna finally Passes Away some day her and her absolutely Beautiful Mother will both be Reunited together again and Live on for Eternity In The Absolute Greatest Of All Kingdoms, The Kingdom Of God and they both will be Reunited with Our Heavenly Father and Our Lord And Savior, Jesus Christ! AMEN!
Wynona has always gotten through her life's struggles with music. She has said many times that singing is something she HAS to do because she couldn't survive otherwise. She would break. She's a strong woman and, as hard as her husband's accident and recovery was, this has totally rocked her world. I believe she needs to do this to pay tribute to her mother, grieve, and cope all at the same time. She said a few days ago that she has to keep singing.
Wynonna has a spirit about her that I haven’t seen before. I’ve seen her sing soooo many times. She has always been amazing but she truly seems whole in this song performance.
I feel like I can still hear Naomi's voice when singing the chorus. I cannot believe the strength Wynonna had singing this. It had to be hard. This song is so special, even more so now.
She did sing bcuz also heard that one voice singing. I've listened probably 8x and hear that solo voice harmonizing. Belief is the king allows her to sing with Wynonna for His Truth . praise God.
@@texlahomagirl9809 I cried too. I could feel both the love and the pain during this tribute. I have learned from experience, that death is "bittersweet". The overwhelming loss we feel when a loved one dies, is what makes death bitter. But the relief of knowing that our loved one's earthly trials and tribulations can no longer hurt them...and that they're in the steady hands of God now...is what makes death sweet. ❤️ 😥
At the end of the song, when everyone in the building sang every word, because they KNEW every word, you realize the legacy and impact left on this world by Naomi Judd. May many more live and find peace through her departure.
Let's not forget they are human to it's not just about fan celeberty connectiion it's about being human and just loving them just for that that's where the true connection is we feel what they feel the realness of life 4:33 ❤❤ 4:39
Wow, under the circumstances - what a great performance by Wynonna.... This was the last song they sang together about a month ago...I can't even imagine what Wynonna must be feeling performing this song, but she done it justice like she always does. Her mother would be so proud
This song always hits home for me. This song has a whole new meaning to Wynonna now. Naomi was a beautiful song writer she was a beautiful woman I truly hope she is at peace. Mental health issues are no joke Naomi had pain no one could help her with and the mental health took over if you need help please try to get it I no that is what Naomi would say. Rest in peace Naomi
l so agree ive always loved this actually the first cassette I brought that was country it opened my heart up to this beautiful music and they were my favorite l cried of the heartbreaking news just as l did when Whitney Houston died mental illness awareness is up there with cancer it sucks she's free now fly high my beautiful angel
Amanda, well said. I have been fighting this battle for 45 years. I said somewhere else that the distance between survival and death from depression and anxiety is a the edge of a very thin knife. Thank you for understanding.💞
Please Show me that in scripture🤔. There's only one bridge, (Mediator) between God and man, the man Christ Jesus. And know her mom I can't hear her. That would mean Wynonas communicating with the dead🙉. You may want to read all of Deauteronomy 😊. Please don't get me wrong I like thair music but whenever I hear People speak from their heart Jeremiah 17:9. instead of from the word of God it's like nails running down a chalkboard. When one adds to the word of God your going against the word of God. Deauteronomy 4:2. PROPER BIBLICAL THEOLOGY goes a long way. You may want to look up R.C. Sproul and watch as much of his teachings as possible and read some of his books along with The Bible every day. God-bless.
This is the first time I've heard the song without Naomi singing background with Wynonna and it made me feel her absence in the most profound way. To have seen them perform the song together live just over a month ago and now to see Wynonna performing it on her own is as powerful and inspiring as it is heartbreaking. Such courage and grace displayed tonight by the entire Judd family.
This is exactly how I felt... That beautiful harmony that Wy will never here next to her again. I admire her strength to continue on, for the second time, without her mom...
It is a release if her feelings for her Mom. Singing is so helpful. I do the same. When you sing the words from your heart, it's a feeling that is indescribable. It actually make heads turn and jaws drop. You, yourself even wonder where the sound comes from. It's in the heart.
Wow. To be able to do this while grieving for her momma testifies to something inexplicable deep inside Wynonna’s soul. When she chokes up on “keep believing in the power,” I am 100% convinced that’s Naomi’s hand on her shoulder, telling her it’s gonna be ok. ❤️
I love it when she turns it into a worship experience because that is exactly what I have done with that song on stage numerous times. Rest in peace Naomi Judd and I love you Wynonna!
Naomi said it herself in an interview a few years ago, she said that she a Wynonna had a very complicated relationship, they loved one another but sometimes needed time away from one another. I think it had to do with Naomi's mental state along with them being in close quarters all the time when they were performing.
Cannot even imagine the pain she must feel when she is singing these songs that she used to perform with her beautiful mother. Just courage beyond words for Wynonna and Ashley, when all eyes are on you and your grief is on national display. Sending them much love and hope they will find peace 💐❤️
I dont think ive ever felt so proud or so much respect as I do watching Wynonna up there tonight. Ive read the books. Ive watched every Oprah appearance and the docuseries and watched the dynamics. Wynonna has been through so much. They all have. But i relate to her struggles in particular. She held it together and unselfishly gave Naomi an absolutely beautiful send off but I know inside she was dying. I couldn't hold it together and was a mess. So many prayers going out to Larry, Ashley, Wy, Elijah and Grace. RIP Mama Judd.
I suffer from mental health problems and I felt this, so raw. And as a grown man of 34 years I cried cause of the circumstances of it all. And how I can relate to how Naomi felt. No good can undo the thoughts and false feelings that mental health problems bring. They are a sabotage that twist the soul.
Aaron, because of sin, everyone’s mind is broken from one degree or another. Jesus is the Answer. He is the God of Truth, which heals the mind. He is the God of Hope which empowers the soul. He is the Resurrection and the Life…there is no lie He can’t break you free from, there is no pain, He cannot heal. I pray that all your heart will rely on His saving grace and that you won’t feel isolated or desperate but know you were made for wholeness in Christ. What He has done for me and so many, He will do for you. Matthew 11:28-30🌅
When I heard this tribute would be taking place my first thought was, how can they go through with this given their grief. Having seen so much of it, I now realize, how could they not. There's so many people mourning the loss of Naomi Judd and for her daughters and husband to take part in this celebration of her life is the most gracious thing they could have done for so many. Naomi Judd was a very accomplished singer, author and songwriter, but I always sensed that her greatest accomplishment and the focus of much of her pride, was in the daughters she raised, and raised primarily on her own. Naomi, your daughter's clearly miss you but they did you very very proud tonight. God bless Naomi, Wynonna, Ashley, and Larry
My heart hurts so much for Naomi's family and friends, and all that loved and adored her. This made me so emotional. I lost my mother not that long ago.
@@MimaJewel, I'm so sorry for the loss of your mother. May your memories of her be eternal and bring comfort. Holding my mother's hand as she passed was the hardest thing I have ever done. But glad I was with her, after all, she was there when I came into her life and I was there for her when she left the world.
@@barbcosgrove64 You must have a hard heart. You don't know how their relationship was. You should be praying for this family. I pray your heart will soften.
Look at Wynonna's eyes right at 5:05 (she's looking right at you) 5:06 look at the way the light hits her eyes... God, please be with them during this time, and guide them with Your strength, love, mercy, comfort, healing and peace. In Jesus name AMEN. Love you ALL.
Feels like being at church and having an intense spiritual experience. Remember, God’s love can cover you and fill the emptiness and heal u from life’s traumas.
Never in a million years have I ever met a country music singer with this much strength. There's no way, I could have gotten up and did what she did tonight. Wynonna has Naomi's humor...she had me bawling when she said "Let's change it up and go spontaneous so she can hear it" 😭😭 and then, had me laughing when she said "The God I serve is Pentecostal" I know the God she serves because he's my God too and I am Pentecostal/Apostolic, and only from the Lord will these girls continue to gather their strength. I grew up with the Judds music from the time I was born in 1980 all the way up until this song came out listening to them with my Mama. I lost my Mom in 2020 from Alzheimers disease and dementia, so I can somewhat sympathize with them on seeing their Mom's mental health deteriorate slowly. Both my Mom & Naomi had different things going on but still similar because it's an attack on the brain and neurological system. Praying for them, and thank you for such great music! My Mom lives on with your songs because we listened to them together ❤
What a strong and rich voice ! Love to hear her sing! May her sweet mother get her some rest from a long battle of depression! Depression is real folks!
Watching this , and when Wynona sang The Rose with the other lady ( sorry, I don't know her, lovely voice), moved me to tears. You could definitely feel the Spirit 💕.
This song brings tears to my eyes. It is a beautiful song. It was not that long ago that Niaomi performed this song on the CMA Awards. God is with you Wynona and Ashley and God loves you both. Prayers to you both and other family.
Poor Wy. I can’t even imagine how hard this was. I heard she was helped off the stage she was so grief stricken. Hee Mom would have been so proud of her. A champion to the end.
WOW! This song was always powerful to listen to when BOTH Naomi and Wynonna sung it. But tonite performance this was a different side to Wynonna I have never seen before. In a good way she sung from her heart to do this song for her Momma justice and she nailed it👏 How she could perform at all is amazing I couldn't of gotten through it. Kudos to Wynonna and God Bless her, Ashley and Larry they are in ALL OF OUR Thoughts, Prayers hoping for peace and comfort as they try to grasp all that has happened. Especially Ashley what she is going through being the one to discover Naomi after she passed. Please God help her erase all that trauma from her discovery in Jesus name AMEN🙏🙏🙏
I can feel not only the soul in this, but God's Holy Spirit and anointing on this song. May the God of Comfort, comfort this family...may the message of His Love and restoration continue. God bless you, "Wy" , Ashley, Larry and the rest of the family.
Wynonna's more mature voice has such roundness and depth of tone that fills the room...beautifully performed! It's so wonderful that everyone is singing this beautiful song...and that people are smiling in memory of Naomi. We are building strong bridges!!!
i have such an admiration for these two women. Can't imagine the grief they and Larry have experienced. The love for this dear mother and wife and the faith in the God that has carried them through this valley is a precious sight to behold. Thank you for your kindness in allowing us to honor her with you.
This song means the world to me. It reminds me of long road trips with my late father who introduced me to the Judds when I was young. He would blast this song and had it on repeat. He's been gone since late 2019. I couldn't listen to this song since he passed away. My heart goes out to Wynonna and Ashley and their whole family.
I accidently cut myself off last comment. Look how Ashley became a sweet humanitarian & Wynona just showed us what she's become. Love comes thru this internet, hopefully all the way to heaven. Thank you Naomi.
I was in tears through out that beautiful, powerful performance and song by Wynonna...God bless Wynonna, Ashley and Larry, dear Naomi's husband (and whole family)❤🙏...Love truly can build a bridge, especially during immense grief. I've been to hell and back many times over grief, depression and anxiety...and stood at that doorstep where sweet Naomi crossed over, when the pain was more than she could bear. The faith I have in God and Jesus, gets me through each day and their love is always there for me...plus, all my guardian angels, like my dear Mom, Dad, family & friends in Heaven (baby pets too), are all with me too, as my beautiful guardian angels. I may be single , but I never feel alone, because they are all there with me and living through me, guiding me. That love gives me the strength to carry on. 😊❤ ✝
I love how Wynonna just pauses for a moment and looks at everyone with their signs in the air! You can tell she knows she is not alone and is so loved! It makes my heart smile!
My absolute favorite song of theirs, The Judds was a love my mom and I shared, we had a rocky relationship. I lost her 4yrs ago. Everytime I hear The Judds I think of her. RIP Naomi
Way to go Wynonna, only the power of the Holy Spirit during such a time of grief can use your beautiful gift to lead people in such an powerful message!!! We are all praying for all of you!!!!
I recorded this on my DVR when The Judds sang it in April, then again tonight, because they’ve always been my absolute favorites of all time. In April, it brought me to tears that they were back on stage, and tonight Wynonna, Ashley, and their family’s grief brought me to tears through this entire, “Celebration of Life.” It was amazing, and beautiful, yet heart wrenching and painful. Naomi’s legacy will always live on within our hearts, and our memories are forever! I am so thankful for this celebration gift, by the family, in keeping Naomi’s wishes, and for all of us who needed it, as we try and look forward. Please everyone, keep Naomi’s family in your prayers. God Bless! 🙏🏼🦋🙏🏼🦋🙏🏼
What a beautiful wonderful job Wynona did singing “Love can build a bridge” the choir was magnificent along w the congregation too! 💕 you all are loved Ashley and Wynona,Larry💕💐AMEN
Thank you CMT for showing this. I means so much to all of us Judds fans. R.I.P. Naomi. Prayers for the Judd family. We all love all of you so much. 🙏🏻🙏🏻💕💕
Both daughters have been so strong through their trauma and grief.I admire both of them so much.The Judd's music was always so honest and from the heart.They are treasured
The pain she must be feeling and I think this is the most beautiful version I have seen or heard. Thank you for doing this for the fans. I couldn’t watch it last night. Did not get CMT and I’m sicker than a dog with covid. Amazing Wynonna 🤗
I pretty much cried through the whole hour. Especially each time Wynonna sang. That song River of Time started it all! I felt every song to my core. Very emotional. I lost my Mama back on December 18th so this really hit home for me! I didn't lose her the way Wynonna and Ashley lost their Mama but I lost my Mama to the terrible disease of cancer. I love the way the audience sang to Wynonna. It was so beautiful! I tried to sing along too but I was a blubbering mess! The tribute to Naomi was so heartfelt and beautiful. Everyone who sang was so good! The words of condolences was heartfelt. I loved what everyone said but I especially loved what Bono and Oprah said. The poem that Martina McBride read that Maya Angelou wrote was perfect! The whole tribute was perfect! Again, my sincere condolences to Wynonna, Ashley, Larry & the entire family. 🙏😔💔
The stars of country music need to come together and sing this song for mental health.
How Wynonna has the strength to sing during this ceremony for her beloved mother is beyond me. Love, comfort, prayers to Wy, Ashley, Larry, extended family, friends who are feeling this incredible loss. Love Can A Bridge is a song to stand the test of time. May we never forget Naomi’s value to country music & her community.
I think she has the strength because she is singing for them both now. She wants to continue to make her mama proud.

I see it.
I say that a lot about her. I’ve seen her perform live it’s otherworldly.
Wynonna's spirit has released the pain and suffering of her beautiful mother. She has carried many a burden in her lifetime. Her soul is free now.
She sure is something special. I hope to see her live one day. :)
Wynonna is just a phenomenal person. Raising people up in her time of grief. ❤️
Yes, I think Wynonna knows how much we all loved them as the judds and as individuals.
Yes!! She inspired me like nothing else tonight.
You go girl! Beautiful!
Yes I agree with you
I think it's time! Love Can Build A Bridge! Love you Wy! God bless you!
She honored her mother so beautifully along side Ashley. What a beautiful tribute.

Wynonna has the Rock of Ages sustaining her...such strength and a beautiful annointing on her. Inspiring, amazing 😇❤️💐🕊🦋
Yes. Agreed.
I agree as well! No other explanation for how she could stand up there, so soon after her mother's passing.

CRY ME A RIVER 🙄🙄 . MAYBE SHE SHOULD'VE TREATED HER MOTHER BETTER .
It is God, who upholds her ...and she knows it He is an Awesome God.
@@barbcosgrove64 You must have a hard heart. You don't know how their relationship was. You should be praying for this family. I pray your heart will soften.
Still in tears from this amazing tribute, Wynonna sings like an angel! Thank you for the beautiful music Naomi, you will be missed.
I'm crying a river of Tears!,God Bless Everyone around the world, may God give Everyone strength and love!
Look at Wynonna's eyes right at 5:05 (she's looking right at you) 5:06 look at the way the light hits her eyes... God, please be with them during this time, and guide them with Your strength, love, mercy, comfort, healing and peace. In Jesus name AMEN. Love you ALL.
Feels like being at church and having an intense spiritual experience. Remember, God’s love can cover you and fill the emptiness and heal u from life’s traumas.
So true 💕
Never in a million years have I ever met a country music singer with this much strength. There's no way, I could have gotten up and did what she did tonight. Wynonna has Naomi's humor...she had me bawling when she said "Let's change it up and go spontaneous so she can hear it" 😭😭 and then, had me laughing when she said "The God I serve is Pentecostal" I know the God she serves because he's my God too and I am Pentecostal/Apostolic, and only from the Lord will these girls continue to gather their strength. I grew up with the Judds music from the time I was born in 1980 all the way up until this song came out listening to them with my Mama. I lost my Mom in 2020 from Alzheimers disease and dementia, so I can somewhat sympathize with them on seeing their Mom's mental health deteriorate slowly. Both my Mom & Naomi had different things going on but still similar because it's an attack on the brain and neurological system. Praying for them, and thank you for such great music! My Mom lives on with your songs because we listened to them together ❤
In tears watching this beautiful, touching performance. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a strong and rich voice ! Love to hear her sing! May her sweet mother get her some rest from a long battle of depression! Depression is real folks!
Wy, this is oh, SO very touching and I've been singing this daily ♡ Just beautiful.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE ♥️🕊
Watching this , and when Wynona sang The Rose with the other lady ( sorry, I don't know her, lovely voice), moved me to tears. You could definitely feel the Spirit 💕.
That was Brandi Carlile that sang The Rose with Wynonna.
Bette Midler of Bettes song from the movie The Rose
@@tanyamccord7422 Maybe 2 diff ppl sang it w/her but it was Bette Midler her own song from the movie the Rose
@@lynnecrisp there a different video from this celebration of life where Wy sings it with Brandi Carlisle
This song brings tears to my eyes. It is a beautiful song. It was not that long ago that Niaomi performed this song on the CMA Awards. God is with you Wynona and Ashley and God loves you both. Prayers to you both and other family.
Poor Wy. I can’t even imagine how hard this was. I heard she was helped off the stage she was so grief stricken. Hee Mom would have been so proud of her. A champion to the end.
It had to take every once of strength she has to sing this today and so beautifully.💖
WOW! This song was always powerful to listen to when BOTH Naomi and Wynonna sung it. But tonite performance this was a different side to Wynonna I have never seen before. In a good way she sung from her heart to do this song for her Momma justice and she nailed it👏 How she could perform at all is amazing I couldn't of gotten through it. Kudos to Wynonna and God Bless her, Ashley and Larry they are in ALL OF OUR Thoughts, Prayers hoping for peace and comfort as they try to grasp all that has happened. Especially Ashley what she is going through being the one to discover Naomi after she passed. Please God help her erase all that trauma from her discovery in Jesus name AMEN🙏🙏🙏
I can feel not only the soul in this, but God's Holy Spirit and anointing on this song. May the God of Comfort, comfort this family...may the message of His Love and restoration continue. God bless you, "Wy" , Ashley, Larry and the rest of the family.
Wynonna's more mature voice has such roundness and depth of tone that fills the room...beautifully performed! It's so wonderful that everyone is singing this beautiful song...and that people are smiling in memory of Naomi. We are building strong bridges!!!
Hello 👋 how are you doing today??
She has always been a favorite of mine. The Judd's made beautiful music. Wynona's voice is still so beautiful and powerful.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today??
I have a whole new respect for Wynonna. How she changed this song mid-centre to get everyone singing is incredible. 💖
i have such an admiration for these two women. Can't imagine the grief they and Larry have experienced. The love for this dear mother and wife and the faith in the God that has carried them through this valley is a precious sight to behold. Thank you for your kindness in allowing us to honor her with you.
I love that both Wynonna and Naomi stand by their faith in God and shared it openly.
In tears watching this Beautiful Touching performance . God blessed you all. Rest in peace Naomi Judd.
This song means the world to me. It reminds me of long road trips with my late father who introduced me to the Judds when I was young. He would blast this song and had it on repeat. He's been gone since late 2019. I couldn't listen to this song since he passed away. My heart goes out to Wynonna and Ashley and their whole family.
Wynonna, best female voice... Ever. Deepest Condolences dear. You carry it well on your own shoulders. Your momma would be proud. Best wishes.
In Memory Of Naomi Judd. Great Country Music Artist. Thinking About You & Your Family.🙏❤️
Such a beautiful performance for a wonderful woman, mom, wife, singer and artist!!
Rest in peace Naomi!!
Hello 👋 how are you doing today??
I accidently cut myself off last comment. Look how Ashley became a sweet humanitarian & Wynona just showed us what she's become. Love comes thru this internet, hopefully all the way to heaven. Thank you Naomi.
I was in tears through out that beautiful, powerful performance and song by Wynonna...God bless Wynonna, Ashley and Larry, dear Naomi's husband (and whole family)❤🙏...Love truly can build a bridge, especially during immense grief. I've been to hell and back many times over grief, depression and anxiety...and stood at that doorstep where sweet Naomi crossed over, when the pain was more than she could bear. The faith I have in God and Jesus, gets me through each day and their love is always there for me...plus, all my guardian angels, like my dear Mom, Dad, family & friends in Heaven (baby pets too), are all with me too, as my beautiful guardian angels. I may be single , but I never feel alone, because they are all there with me and living through me, guiding me. That love gives me the strength to carry on. 😊❤ ✝
I truly believe the spirit was there.🙏🏼❤️
Naomi can hear her song for the first time and not feel saddness.. 🕊❤️🙏..no more crying there 😇
Hello 👋 how are you doing today?
I love how Wynonna just pauses for a moment and looks at everyone with their signs in the air! You can tell she knows she is not alone and is so loved! It makes my heart smile!
Singing for her Mama. One of the most beautiful songs ever written.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today??
I cry every time I watch this one. She is amazing!
Hello Saddie how are you doing?
Wynonna is such an amazing person even in this time of grief she can still raise people up. God Bless Wynonna, Ashley, Larry and the Judd family.
Thank you so much for this.....
Absolutely beautiful! I am sure your Mama heard it! Prayers and love to you Wynonna!
Praise to our Wonderful God who gives us so much love !!!!
My absolute favorite song of theirs, The Judds was a love my mom and I shared, we had a rocky relationship. I lost her 4yrs ago. Everytime I hear The Judds I think of her. RIP Naomi
Hello 👋 how are you doing today??
Way to go Wynonna, only the power of the Holy Spirit during such a time of grief can use your beautiful gift to lead people in such an powerful message!!! We are all praying for all of you!!!!
God bless you Naomi Judd may you be with the angels and be at peace now 🙏 ✨ ❤
How is she so breathtakingly stunning in the midst of a storm of grief???
I recorded this on my DVR when The Judds sang it in April, then again tonight, because they’ve always been my absolute favorites of all time. In April, it brought me to tears that they were back on stage, and tonight Wynonna, Ashley, and their family’s grief brought me to tears through this entire, “Celebration of Life.” It was amazing, and beautiful, yet heart wrenching and painful. Naomi’s legacy will always live on within our hearts, and our memories are forever! I am so thankful for this celebration gift, by the family, in keeping Naomi’s wishes, and for all of us who needed it, as we try and look forward. Please everyone, keep Naomi’s family in your prayers. God Bless! 🙏🏼🦋🙏🏼🦋🙏🏼
Hello 👋 how are you doing today??
Grieving the loss of a parent is the worst kind of heartache. I can’t imagine doing it with the world watching. This was such a beautiful tribute.

Hello 👋
@@austinhowland300gmail. hi there how are you?
@@jenniferforbes3236 I’m good thanks. So where are you from?
@@jenniferforbes3236 Hi Jennifer how are you doing today
@@austinhowland300gmail. I’m doing just great how are you?
God bless her for keeping it together during this difficult time 🙏
Singing her heart out holding back tears 🥹.
The pain she must be feeling and I think this is the most beautiful version I have seen or heard. Thank you for doing this for the fans. I couldn’t watch it last night. Did not get CMT and I’m sicker than a dog with covid. Amazing Wynonna 🤗
So impressed with the strength Wynonna demonstrated, and how she commanded the stage. Absolutely incredible. Prayers for Her and her family.
God bless them! Beautiful!
She's a powerhouse... will never hear this song again without shedding tears.
I pretty much cried through the whole hour. Especially each time Wynonna sang. That song River of Time started it all! I felt every song to my core. Very emotional.
I lost my Mama back on December 18th so this really hit home for me!
I didn't lose her the way Wynonna and Ashley lost their Mama but I lost my Mama to the terrible disease of cancer.
I love the way the audience sang to Wynonna. It was so beautiful! I tried to sing along too but I was a blubbering mess!
The tribute to Naomi was so heartfelt and beautiful. Everyone who sang was so good! The words of condolences was heartfelt. I loved what everyone said but I especially loved what Bono and Oprah said. The poem that Martina McBride read that Maya Angelou wrote was perfect!
The whole tribute was perfect!
Again, my sincere condolences to Wynonna, Ashley, Larry & the entire family. 🙏😔💔
So sorry for your loss. Isn't it amazing how music helps us through such times.
@@maryriley8077 Thank you. Music is a strong emotion. I enjoyed the memorial. It was beautiful.
I am crying,listening to this song. She is a strong woman. R.I.P Naomi
Beautiful! The end brought me to tears. So precious ❤
