Clyde H. Bellecourt, “Neegawnwaywidung” (The Thunder Before the Storm)
A beautiful soul and Warrior walks on, enjoy your ancestors!! I know you will be keeping a watchful eye. I was honored to engage with you and Vernon while playing volleyball at the Indian Center for years, our family ties kept the conversations excited and made me realize how blessed I was to have so many strong hearted warriors in my circle! Zaagi’idiwin Niijii
A great warrior. Neegawnwaywidung, I have a deep respect for what you fought for: Civil and Human Rights, Respect for Mother Earth, Courage, Education and Our Children, Grandchildren and Future Generations. During my years in tribal office, you supported Constitutional Reform, saying “What will I tell my grandchildren? I stood for you and all future generations “. Gegahwahbahminminahwah (I will see you again). Dr. Erma J. Vizenor, White Earth Nation Chairwoman, 2004-2016
Until we meet again niijii Chi miigwetch for all you have done for our people
We loved you Clyde. RIP
Rest in peace
