We are raising funds for Tommy Dalton's funeral, memorial, 40 day party and pay off party. All funds raised will go directly to his cause.

We remember and honor the life of a man who's spirit shaped generations, whose wisdom guided a people, and whose love anchored a family.

He was a spiritual leader, a tribal judge and a proud leader of the Tlingit tribe. His voice carried the weight of justice, his prayers the strength of tradition, and his presence the calm of ancestral wisdom. In every role, he embodied the values of the lineage and the land he protected.

Beyond this, he was a father, a grandfather, a great-grandfather and a great-great grandfather. His legacy lives not only in the stories passed down but in the eyes of his descendants - each one a reflection of his strength, compassion and enduring spirit.

He taught us that leadership is not about power, but about service. That spirituality is not confined to ritual, but woven into daily life. That family is not just blood, but bond.

Though he walks now with the ancestors, his footsteps remain etched in the soil of our hearts. His teachings echo in our songs, his laughter in our gatherings, and his love in the way we care for one another.
