Love that your subscribed to Steve! Bit of nostalgia in this sadness. Class act Mav. Cheers 🍻 Yes I was shocked when I opened RU-vid and saw the title of this video, my heart sank 😰
Hey Steve. I'm rewatching this video because I'm about to loose my wife. I'm by her side now at Hospice. Thank you for making this video. Everyone, please take care of your other half. Don't let them work too hard ❤
Hey dude, I've loved watching your stealth camping videos lately. I'm terribly sorry for your loss. You got a lot of love and people rooting for you out here in youtube land.
Wow amazing that of all people my other favorite RU-vidr watches Steve as well! If we can get together somehow to help out that would be amazing also when the time is right you guys should go stealth camping together hell bring crazy neighbor along as well ! Much love from shitty Seattle!
Steve I can’t put into words how much my heart hurts for you. I as well as the million plus other people here are happy to offer anything we can to help. Love yah buddy.
Yeah I'm in shock and I'm crying and I'm so sad for him. The comments and his followers are good people. He's good people. I wish there was something that we could do for him
I just found your video channel tonight. Last week I lost my wife, I am 45 and she was 44 married 21 years. She was healthy with no indications of any health issues. She suffered a massive stroke out the blue. I had the one too, I know everyone thinks that but no two ways about it she was. If you look for support for widows, there are a million resources. If you look for widowers, maybe one or two. None of them are focused on support while in our age range which is different. Sorry if the preceding is less than stellar on the grammar front but I don’t give a shit. She was my world, and I am trying to accept living without her.
Im so sorry. You guys are so young and life is so unfair. May the Lord lead you through the paths that lie ahead.One day............one day, you will rest easy.
My dad passed away in 1998 at age 47 (I was 16, my twin sisters were 20, and my brother 21)….cancer…..never smoked a day in his life, totally outdoorsy and athletic. A friends wife, mother of 4 littles, had a brain aneurysm and passed, early 30’s….totally healthy otherwise, just got a headache and went to the hospital and it just happened. We are so fragile and nobody knows WHO it is going to hit. Even healthy ppl can go unexpectedly.
I'm very sorry to hear that and I hope that you have found some social support amongst those who can truly empathize and understand what you are going through.
I just watched 3 hours of your videos. The last 2 were of Crazy Neighbor's heading toward heaven, and I just learned of your beautiful Jess, too.. I'm sending you bucketloads of love and support. Please come around at your pace.... the comments show how impactful you are to each person watching your videos. Helped my day immensely. Thank you for your insights, and for showing up and carrying on. Life loves you through each day....
I don't know how this came across my youtube homepage, never seen this channel before, but this was very moving and a reminder to not take my life or those of my loved ones for granted. Jess sounded like a really special woman from what you shared in this video and I wish you well Steve.
This was the same for me, this feed just came up on my channel yet I had never seen Steve before. So this is for Steve because you crossed my path: You are being thought about as you go through this difficult time. Losing a close loved one is the toughest and Jess sounded very selfless, very loving and giving. I am sorry you are going through this. Sending you one of over a million hugs…you are doing what Jess would have wanted and this shows your selflessness…to keep going, to keep giving and working which is a huge inspiration to those also feeling loss and pain. You have touched more hearts than you will ever know as not all will comment but they will feel this candid and raw video. Thank you for sharing that this beautiful being called Jess existed as well as showing another one…you are an amazing person and your vids look extremely interesting. We need more people like you in this world. Keep strong my friend! 🙏❤️
Same here... Have no clue who this is... But I stand in solidarity with you bro. My heart just sank for you. Other than what I've typed, I have no words... And I always have words... Hang in there Steve I've never met... I'm sure she was in good hands here on earth... You seem like a solid dude (you can tell in your sincerity) and I'm sure she's in the best hands now.
This just came up on my YT feed too although I had heard about Steve’s loss of Jess through others I follow. Steve, I hope you’re starting to adapt and heal. I know we never get over the loss but learn to live with it for the time we have on earth until we’re reunited again with our loved ones. Sending hugs from 🏴 to you. ❣️
A year later. Steve I just want you to know me and a lot of people think about you. It tears me up to see a wonderful human being like you in such excruciating pain. She really seemed like the absolute real deal. Rest in peace beautiful soul.
Hey Wade, all we can do is distract ourselves from the glooming sadness and wait for the time to pass. Stay strong buddy. She will be much happier if she knows you recover soon. RIP.
Hey bud, I know this is a bit of an old video, but a caring comment won’t hurt I hope. Two years ago, my wife and two daughters passed away in a drunk driving accident. When it first happened, I was actually mad at myself. I was mad I wasn’t there. I was mad I couldn’t have stopped it. I was mad I couldn’t be there to help them. Instead, I was off buying Christmas presents for the three of them. The pain was unbearable. It felt like the comfy walls of my life had been torn down, and suddenly I was all alone. It took me over 4 months to even want to leave the house. I had no motivation, because my motivation had been killed in a car crash. You deserve to take however long you feel is necessary to stand yourself backup, dust off your gears, and get back out into doing what you love. It’ll never stop hurting, and I’m sure you know that. But use that hurt as a way to push yourself. Take every step with the thought that you’re doing exactly what she would have wanted you to do. I’m sorry bud. I’m so, so sorry. And I’m sure you know as much as I do that nothings gonna bring her back. Nothings gonna bring the three things I cared about most back either, but I can honor them. You waking up each day is your way of honoring her beautiful soul, and I hope you know that. You seem like a truly awesome guy and you deserve all the love and the praise, and you deserve to know that, even though she may have passed, you can still go out and rock the fucking world for her. Take care bud I really do wish you the best❤️
I've been following your videos for a few years now. I rarely leave comments, but I thought you'd like to hear this. Since this video went up, I started donating at least 1% of my income to the Salvation Army and local food banks in my area, in memory of your beautiful wife. I'm glad to see you’re staying strong after all you've gone through these past 13 months. Jess would be proud!
"She was the real deal." She must have been, or you wouldn't be coming apart like this. She must have been something. As a man who has lost family recently here, I sympathize with your pain. For what it is worth, my prayers are with you. Whenever you go camping, she will be with you. I think I'll go ask around the food bank that runs out of the Lutheran church downtown and see if they need any donations or a helping hand. If nothing else, they have scheduled meals for the homeless and the otherwise needy, and I can cook. God bless, Steve.
Mate when I heard him say that it broke me a bit. The quiver in his voice. I had to distract myself a tad and went to the comments too instantly see your comment
Hi Steve , I know your pain, the same thing happened to me on the 28-1-2024, My darling wife passed in the night age 64, Im devastated and I do not know how I going to live on with out my darling Pam, I like you never had a chance to say goodbye and tell her how much I loved her. This is so hard to deal with and come to the relization that I will never see my darling wife Pam again. all the best mate ,, Phil from Aussie
When all seems lost, and you feel alone in this existence...remember Him, who created you, even if Australia as a whole has turned his back on him. He loves you both. ¡Viva Cristo Rey!
@@fernandez3841Telling someone about a higher power doesn't exactly help the pain of losing your best friend that you have been with for 20+ years. Take the god speech somewhere else
You will see her again, God wants you to live out your plan for as long as you can in this boat that he put you in this time around, perhaps the next seas that you sail, her soul will be within the bosun, and yours, the shipmaster.
My heart goes out to you and Jess’s family Steve. Really am sorry for your loss. Please reach out if ever you just want a chat. Appreciate we have a time difference but I’ll be on the other side of the phone if you need someone to talk to.
TA its just shockingly sad, fair play dude for reaching out , god bless and thank you for all you give of yourself and like Steve have created a fellowship of good people.
@@robbank8027 I know, that was an epic video, because we got a glimpse of the elusive “beautiful wife! I think we got her on the bus once also, she was the ying to Steve’s yang. Heaven has gotten another special angel
Honestly seeing you and so many other RU-vidrs I follow here genuinely makes me realise why I follow you all, you are all genuinely great people. Thank you for taking the time to post and show it
Would you consider bringing a tribute of sorts on the next peak bag? Seems fitting in a way as you got to meet her and would be as close to delivering it to her up in the sky.
Worst news ive ever seen since my own Mother and Father died , as we all love Steve Beautiful wife and Crazy Neighbour Glenn , I hope Steve has family and friends supporting him at this time , his wife was too good for this world , As the great Freddie Mercury said Only the Good Die young , RIP Beautiful Wife Jess xxx
"On Saturday Beautiful Wife and me went to bed, on Sunday only I woke up." I have never heard a more heartbreaking sentence then this. I can't even imagine the pain you must have felt in that moment. I'm very sorry for your loss.
Shirley here, I just read your comment. I yelled at my husband just a little while ago for not wipping his feet of when he came in outside in the rain, I will never do that again, u am glad I still have him he's my world.
I recently started watching your videos, and out of the blue this one popped up. It’s impossible not to feel deeply for you, because we see what kind of a person you are in your stealth videos - there was a reason your marriage was to another beautiful human being. Because of kind hearted people like her, people like me get groceries each week that we otherwise could not afford to buy - thank you. 💖
I didn't expect this to appear in my feed and I don't know you Steve, but my deepest condolences to you. I've never been married or had a girlfriend, but losing someone important in general is something everyone can relate to, I can see your great sadness while trying to hold it together. When you said your wife was the "real deal" I believed you, it seems that far too often truly life-changing and heart touching people we meet are called home early. Hurts more in a way since you don't come across people with conviction much these days. I hope you bounce back from this difficult time in time, but always remember that you owe it to her and you owe it to yourself to always keep her and the time you spent together in your memories.
Same here, I've lost a few family members some close others I was too young to really know, but I feel for him and wish him the best. Stay strong steve!
Exactly, she might be dead in the flesh...but in thought? Shes only fully gone once the memories he bears dissapear. I hope he doesnt commit suicide and instead decides to give those memories justice.
Never watched one of your videos before, but this one popped up on my Home Screen for whatever reason. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. The fragility, cruelty, and shortness of life are things we try our best to avoid until they all decide to jump us at once. It's a hard thing to go through, and it's something that I hope I never have to experience. I don't know you, her, or your story, but given the way you talk about her she sounded like an amazing person. I wish you the best of luck. Keep fighting, even when it feels impossible. That's what she would want. Keep going for her.
His stealth camping in public places is something you got to see to believe he really gets it figured out gets old comfy Cooks his food relaxes drinks his beer and it's really a fun channel to watch
I never watched one of your videos but on September 15th I woke up after surgery only to be told my beautiful Sandy had died. A year later and I'm still an emotional wreck. My health has deteriorated greatly due to my grief. I'm truly sorry for your loss you will be in my prayers. If you are not sure where you will spend eternity I suggest you get saved, it would be terrible not to spend eternity with your wife it's comforting to know when I die I'll be with my lovely wife. Alcohol will destroy your life I know first hand I've been sober since April 2003. I went from a functioning drunk to sober overnight by truly asking God Almighty to take away my desire for alcohol and he did. No relapses just sober overnight. My only child my son died from muscular dystrophy and alcohol eased the pain but not for long so please take my advice and I hope you find peace
Same for me! Steve I don’t know you, your video popped up on my feed. My heart goes out to you. What you’re going through is beyond understanding. Jess sounds a beautiful, warm amazing lady. I can feel that by how you speak of her ❤️. Sending love and hugs to you and all around you ❤️
My wife died the same time @stevewallis made this video. I have watched this over and over 4:33 min clip. 1 Year later, I have grown hatred upon everyone around me of the fact that no one understand my pain. But that is okay, in the end I have come to realize that we carry ourselves upon this twisted world and some of us just got the cards not favouring our wishes... I continue my life (never as it was) but what I can in what I have gone through, that is all that can be expected of me. I am so glad that there is a person on this planet that can upload content like this in internet and take it as it is and give mental for all the rest of us going trough this pain no one else can understand. My condolences
The pain in his voice is heart breaking, May she rest in peace Steve. I wish the best for you and your heart. I hope life brings you many amazing things and Jess can watch you from the clouds talking to God about how proud she is of you.
I've just seen one of your videos, and then this one. You seem like a real honest, good person. I'm very sorry about your wife passing. Wishing you all the best, keep on being you
I couldn't imagine what he felt waking up that morning and finding that she had passed during the night. It's unthinkable and truly heartbreaking. This is the first time I've come across your channel, Steve, but I want you to know that I'm so, so sorry for your loss and I hope you have a good network of people around you to help you through this difficult time.
My dad passed away on August 16 at 4 A.M+ and it only few weeks ago that happened. It's just so sudden to me even right now i'm still thinking what could've been the day if he still around. Let me tell you, it's like your whole world just freaking shift and collapse into pieces and it's not the same feeling like the way you used to
Other people don't even get a wife due to birth defects, ugliness, and mental issues. They are left to rot. I'll rub one out to his tears and her cadaver.
i feel bad for him, i mean it's so sudden... i wonder what happened? dying in your sleep when you aren't old is so random and could basically happen to anyone, anytime, scary to think about.... RIP to her though, I can only imagine what he's going through.
I discovered your videos about 2 weeks ago and have enjoyed them so much. I saw this today and I know time has passed, but, I'm sorry for your loss. You seem like such a genuine guy and I'm sorry this tragedy befell you. Be well, friend.
You poor sweet man. I don’t know why this ended up on my feed, and I can’t say I’m happy it did. Sorta the opposite of happy right now. But what I am happy about is that I got to find out about Jess. She sounds like an incredible person. I can tell just from what little you’ve said that the world is poorer without her. I’m glad I got to hear about her and know that she was in this world, making it a bit better every day. Thank you for sharing.
I do not follow your content Steve. This showed in my feed. I still clicked and immediately feel the passion for what you do here and more importantly did together. Words fall short in a situation like this...but to honor Jess, her uncoditional kindness and love, I will go through my apartment and put aside clothes and other things to donate to local organisations. Ive never done this before, but I am moved. God bless, stay strong, my thoughts go out to you and those closest. ♡
Brother, I just saw this…even though it’s been a year since you’ve posted this, my heartfelt condolences are just as real tonight as I watch this as they would be had I seen this when the video was posted. You’ve given me some great moments as I’ve struggled through my own life. You’ve inspired me to keep moving forward, even when I can’t see the purpose. So, thank you for sharing your life with us, this includes the good moments as well as the bad.
I'm so sorry for your loss. As evident by all the comments and support, you are an amazing down to earth person, and we're all rooting for you. Much love, brother.
My Girlfriend couldn’t wrap head around why I was watching a guy camp behind a billboard and why I laughed my head off every time he cracked a beer. Eventually she got hooked too and started watching with me and loving every reference to “beautiful wife”. You’ve become a staple in our house Steve. Love from Tampa, FL
Tampa native here as well, we are here for you Steve! I could not even begin to fathom the pain of losing my long time Girlfriend so suddenly, and the way he described it means it must have been so traumatic for him. My heart breaks for the fella. The worst things always seem to happen to the best people sometimes. Such heartbreak in a 4 minute video. Incredibly sad.
@Audrey Jones You're so cool, your a Lil white girl with no friends. Imagine. Imagine being 12 years old, having no friends, and disrespecting a man's wife for no reason. It's time to grow up honey😐.
@@marcGOAT1 First, he uploaded the video several days after, not "immediately." Second, how she died is none of our business and it is up to Steve to decide if he wants to share that incredibly personal detail with the public. Third, has it occurred to you that they might not even know the cause of death yet? Often when deaths occur suddenly, the cause isn't determined until after post-mortem examination, which takes a while. And fourth, have some respect, Man! Steve is going through the worst thing he has ever experienced and you're out here bugging him about the details. He tell you when he tells you, if he feels like it.
@@greg4629 That's not true. Cause of death is not public interest information, and it is only included in obituaries if the family submitting it chooses to do so. In fact, the obituaries themselves only happen if a loved one of the deceased submits it for publication. Obits are meant to acknowledge and honor those we've lost, not to satisfy the morbid curiosity of the crowd.
One of the nicest and down to earth guys you’ll ever see on RU-vid. I’m so sorry for your loss Steve she’ll be looking down, proud of all the things you are doing in life. ❤️
I know the pain. I lost my fiancee June 3, 2016. We were going to get married. She died from a pulmonary embolism. She was only 25. We had a daughter born March 30th, same year. After I lost her I was inconsolable for a week. I snapped out of it and took care of our daughter, who is 6 years old now. Every once in a while I sit and just think of her. My grieving hasn't ended.
Hi wil.I just wanted to say, my heart goes out to you. I lost my wife not so long ago after 25 years together. She died of MND.And now 4 years later she is always in my thoughts. As long as you remember your partner they will always be with you. I have now found a lovely partner and we are getting married next year, but my wife will always be with me in my thoughts. I wish you all the very best for whatever the future holds.
Sorry for your loss. One of the hardest things is that the one person who could best help you through this is the one who's gone. I feel for you Find a support group if you can - it can make a huge difference
I just got hooked on your videos today. You're probably one of the nicest and down to earth guys I've ever seen. You're honestly quite inspiring. I'm really sorry for your loss. I am glad to see you've kept it up and living life. Big hugs from me.
Man I don’t even watch your channel. As a matter of fact, this is the first time I’m watching one of your videos and I just wanna say that I’m so very sorry for your loss. I couldn’t imagine losing my significant other. My heart and prayers go out to you tonight all the way from Tennessee. Again man, I’m truly sorry for your loss and you have my most sincere condolences. Stay strong my man. I know that’s allot easier said than done considering the circumstances.
I never seen this channel before, but I feel like there was such an adventure I missed and it still hurts me to here. As a married man myself I can't comprehend the feelings, prayers for you, love you brother. Please take all the time you need, condolences.
Hi Steve. I highly doubt you will see this comment among the thousands of other ones, but I just wanted to say I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. I only recently discovered your content but you seem like such an awesome, caring and loving man and the last person something like this should happen to. Your references to ‘beautiful wife’ in your videos are really touching and showed to me your love and admiration for her. I am 17 and I lost my mother in January and watching this video, something really resonated within me and I began crying for nearly 15 minutes. Completely unexpected considering I don’t even know you but I feel a deep empathy for what you are going through and it is truly an indescribable pain. I’m so so sorry for your loss. Please take as much time as you need to grieve and surround yourself with the ones you love and trust. Don’t pay mind to those 1% of horrible people who leave negative comments, they are absolute scum who would never say these things in public I’m sure, the cowards. I’m keeping you in my thoughts at the moment and sending best wishes to you and your family. You can do this and pull through Steve, everyone is behind you. Lots of love ❤❤❤
This is the first time I’ve come across your site. I am so moved by your genuineness. In your deep loss, you found the strength and took the time to express and share the love you feel in your heart with others. What an amazing compliment you have made to Jess who was able to bring out the depths of emotion that you did. She certainly must have been an extraordinary woman. There’s no need to apologize for having recognized how she impacted and changed your life in such positive and profound ways. I’ll remember you in my prayers as I think of you and these moments you selflessly shared with others in your time of grief.~~ Tate’s mom
I just found your channel a couple weeks ago. Been going through the older videos. And then some of the newer. I was wondering what happened to your wife. She wasn't mentioned in the newer. Well, I just had time to go back through and I seen this video. I am so sorry for your loss. My wife and I will be praying for you. I know it's been a year, but still, we will be praying for you. Thank you for your videos.
I lost my wife last October. It feels like the worst thing ever. I would like to pass on some helpful tips that helped me through the tremendous grief that comes with losing your wife. 1. Eat well. 2. Try and get as much rest as possible. Maximize your sleep. There's no way you can deal with everything that comes with grief unless you sleep well. 3. Familiarize yourself with the 5 stages of grief. denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. everyone is different, and you may jump from one to another quickly, or hang around one stage for a while. this is all normal. There are lots of resources online that will walk you through those stages. 4. Don't be afraid to lean on those around you in your community. There's nothing wrong with getting help. 5. You will get beyond this. It takes time to heal and grieve. It'll never be the same, but it will get better. Love you sir. I'm praying peace and comfort for you.
I wanna tell you that I think it’s so kind you’ve shared this…. I’m grateful to God I have my wife every day that I do. I can’t imagine this pain. Thank you for passing this along. I intend to share it with friends that have experienced a recent loss. 🙏
I’m so sorry to hear of your wife’s passing. Condolences to you and family. That you are keeping up with your dream of hunkering down be sure that an angel is watching over you. I’ve only being watching you videos after finding them for a couple weeks and often binge watch late into the night. I love looking up areas you been in to see Steve Camped Here! I definitely will be doing more for those in need in your wife’s memory. Thank you for sharing.
I just started watching your videos about 2 weeks ago, not knowing what happened to beautiful wife. I am extremely sorry for your loss. I am sure she is smiling down at you from heaven!! Stay the path!!
Yes. You are right. Might I add: Strangers we are and Steve brought us together. He and his wife have provided us with hours and hours of a unique togetherness. There is a terrible sadness among us.
I’m so sorry! I just found your channel two days ago, and I’ve been binge watching. This breaks my heart for you. She sounds like she was an amazing person. I love the idea of care packages. ❤
Never seen this channel before in my life but this popped into my feed. This will be lost in the ocean of comments but I think its the thought that counts. I'll say a prayer for your beautiful wife and I'll see about donating to the charities she liked. As for anyone else passing through here that sees my comment feel free to pray for my gf who I'm going to make into my wife. No one deserves the pain this man is going through. Best of luck to you and your families champs stay strong.
A change in the weather is known to be extreme But what's the sense of changing horses in midstream? I'm going out of my mind With a pain that stops and starts Like a corkscrew to my heart Ever since we've been apart (Bob Dylan)
I feel your pain, my friend. I lost my wife of 51 years back in 2016. It is hard coming to terms with the passing of a loved one. My prayers are with you.
I don't want you to take this the wrong way because I mean this with the upmost sincerity and respect. But how do you keep going, what keeps you moving?
@@OneTrueRat It may not be the exact same answer but possibly close. Some of us develop the drive to keep living on in honor of them because that's what they wouldve wanted. Plus, in the end we hope to see them again on the other side someday.
Man, just stumbled upon your videos recently and have started watching my way through a good few of them to keep my mind from brooding over my own circumstances. It's mortifying to find out how much tragedy you've had to endure. I really don't know what to say, but I wish you the best. You seem a fantastic person and I hope you have more tranquil years ahead than these last few must have been. Thankyou for everything you do.
I just saw this. I went to tears as soon as I saw you sit down. I go to bed every night worried about losing my wife of 20 years. I silently weep because without her, I don't think I would ever get over that pain..Though your video is a year old, I wonder how you recovered.
Steve I found you today. RU-vid recommended me the video where you stealth camped in the roundabout and to say it made my day is an understatement. To hear that someone as amazing as you had to experience something like this is both shocking and devastating. I want you to know you’re one of my new favorite channels, I hope you’re doing ok now, I hope you can heal, and I wish I could help you more man. Thank you SO much for your videos and again, I SINCERELY hope you’re doing ok❤❤❤❤
Exact same here, I never would have guessed from that video that anything like this happen to him so recently..poor man, I hope he finds peace in his life
The best advice I received after the passing of my wife was, "It's OK not to be OK". This gave me permission to grieve instead of being strong and stoic. May God bless you in this season.
I hope that we are on our way to creating a world where everybody just understands that. When I see people saying that they had to hear that from somebody to realize it it makes very scared for humanity.
Agreed. And you don’t owe any explanation. It is on to not be ok. 🙏 I’m really sorry for your loss. I’ll pay it forward from now on in the name your beautiful wife. ❤️
DONT YOU EVER SAY SORRY FOR CRYING. you are the man. you had a wonderful wife. she will always be here with you. and you will see her again. Love you brother. and also, never not allow yourself time for grief. I'm 10 months in to my loss of my daughter. NEVER not allow yourself time.
Found your channel through your roundabout camping video and I watched through the whole thing not just because I was intrigued by the premise but because you came of as super chill and easy going, I'm 5 months late but I'm really sorry for your loss and wish you all the best in the future, nobody deserves to lose a loved one, take care and I'm going to continue watching this channel prosper and in support of you and your wife. Stay strong.
Same experience on my end here. Randomly stumbled upon his roundabout camping vid a few days ago and have been watching through the rest of his videos ever since. Nothin but positive vibes from the new fan Steve.
Hey steve, i am blessed wtih the chance of coming across your channel and have been binging your videos and its one of my fav rhings to look forward to at night, i work 9-5 at a mediocre job, live alone and these videos bring me a peace and calm j very much need and im sure others would agree ! im sorry mate , and i hope and pray a year on your doing ok matey , fan from australia ❤
I've been making my way back through your videos after having discovered your channel a few months ago, and finding this one really hit me hard. I think that now I can maybe see some of the pain you must be carrying over the past few years in some of your videos, but I also see that spark of optimism and perseverance that never seems to go away, either. Sending you my best wishes and thanks for continuing to make such relaxing and entertaining material. Safe travels Steve.
"Beautiful wife." I've never before heard a man repeatedly, and so humbly, honor his wife in this way. This is something very special. I'm without words, other than to say that after getting to know you both, in a sense, through your videos, I've experienced a loss with you. I hope you can feel the warmth of the love and best wishes of your million followers.
No need to apologize bud, very sorry for your loss... condolences. Been just over 10 years my wife passed away in the ICU fighting cancer. She could have easily passed away at home but as fate would have it she didn't and died in the ICU instead. The worse part of it all outside of her going was it was left to me to let her go off life support... I swear I did everything I could not to make that decision but I did and she was ok with it. The machine was the only thing kept her alive just enough for her to know what was going on around her. Worse decision I ever had to make and from that day on I hate funerals and refuse to attend another one. I know it sounds selfish, it's just I can't handle one. Having your spouse pass on right there at the house?... that's a awful experience. Live well man, and don't ever entertain false guilt... that's not a good way to live. I did it and it nearly took me down.
I can honestly say, I've never shed a tear for a RU-vidr until tonight when I watched your heartfelt video at the acreage. I've been a subscriber for a couple of years now and I am married to one of those rare "real deal" women. I can only imagine what you are going through. We love what you and Beautiful Wife Jess have created in this channel and hope that you will find a way to continue, but if not, Thank you for all that you have done so far. The world has a shortage of good "down to earth (literally)" entertainment, education and humor and you bring all of that into your videos. I love the idea of making care packages for the homeless. I think I will do that in the near future. Generosity can be contagious. Thank you Jess and Rest in Peace. Reach for your strength Steve.
Oh man, Steve, I had a good cry with you on this one brother. When I told my wife I was watching some guy stealth camping in the woods, at first she thought it was a bit odd since I don't so much camping these days. I will never forget the first time she watched with me, and heard you refer to your wife as Beautiful Wife. Her exact words were "He calls his wife Beautiful Wife? I love this man!" Ever since then you have been quite the household name around here, and this has impacted my wife and I both very much. We will pack up some kits tonight and have them on hand in our vehicles in memory of Jess. Surround yourself with loved ones and allow yourself to grief, you have an army behind you of supporters that want nothing more than for you to be happy, healthy and safe. Lots of love and positive thoughts from Missouri!! RIP Beautiful Wife
I'm sat here, thousands of miles away, with tears in my eyes over someone I've never even seen, nevermind met. I think that says something about the wonderful connection that you have with her, and your audience. Keep talking Steve, and lean on anyone you need to, there are many, many people out there who care for you.
Absolutely insane how 10 days ago you and BW were on a livestream together celebrating 1 million subscribers, life comes at you fast I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss Steve!
So sorry for your loss . I had the same thing happen to me went to bed Saturday night woke up Sunday 2015 and my husband if 28years was gone absolutely heartbreaking.
Hey Steve, I just discovered your channel a couple days ago and is has to be one of the most wholesome channels I’ve ever seen. I’m really sorry for your loss, the way you always referred to her as your beautiful wife always brought a smile to my face. Just wanted to let you know that your channel has brought a lot of happiness to a lot of people and please know that the community is here for you and will always hunker down with you. Thanks Steve for all the inspiration.
Hi Steve. last weekend my son and I spent two days overhauling a beautiful woodland walk near where we live in Marbella, Spain. We cleared a bunch of fallen trees and we picked up bags of trash. We did it in honour of your beautiful wife, Jess. I could always tell how much you loved her and how much you guys complemented each other. Your overwhelming loss is just about everyone's worst nightmare. Every time we walk the 'Beautiful Wife' walk we will think of you and Jess.
Ik none of you and I'm literally sobbing after reading this because it's so beautiful and my heart is breaking for this man..😢..there is so much love compassion and good in this world and in times like these strangers come together for the love of their brother and humanity..This is what the definition of being human really is..May the Lord bless all whom showed Steve so much love and compassion....There is hope for all us!
“she was the real deal” I love this quote, and I loved hearing that Jess loved giving. I’m going to go out of my way and give this week, for Jess. Love you Steve!
