Alaskan Bush People’s Billy died in January

Bear confirmed the news on Instagram on January 3 that his dad Billy had sadly passed away.

The caption read: “We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved patriarch Billy Brown passed away last night after suffering from a seizure… we plan to honor his legacy going forward, and to continue with his dream.”

Billy had been risking his health after deciding to defy doctor’s orders and live on the mountain.

He had been in and out of hospital in recent years and was previously told by medical professionals that high altitude wasn’t good for him.

The higher up Billy was from sea level, the harder it was for the Alaskan Bush People patriarch to breathe.

After returning home from one particular hospital visit, Billy told his large family that he was having heart problems.

Because he had been having a hard time breathing, he had always assumed it was his lungs – but the diagnosis from his last emergency scare pinpointed the problem being a serious problem with his heart.



Billy’s wife Ami told their grown up children that their father wasn’t going to get better

In heartbreaking scenes on the reality show, Billy’s wife Ami told their adult kids that their father wasn’t going to get better.

Billy decided that he’d rather die on his Alaskan Bush People mountain rather than anywhere else.

However, the children made the decision to move their parent’s trailer lower down the mountain – in an attempt to help with Billy’s breathing problems.



Billy previously said that he wanted to pass away up on the mountain

Before the patriarch arrived home from the hospital, his kids dragged the trailer down the frozen mountain trail until it was at a lower spot.

However, this all happened before the latest season of the popular reality show aired.

Billy was seen on the last Alaskan Bush People season on the mountain with his family, but then the fire hit and reports indicated that they lost a lot of their ranch.

The Brown’s real estate empire in Washington- which is over 436 acres of land- was previously destroyed due to the wildfire.

In an Instagram post, Bear revealed that the family suffered a “devastating loss” after losing their home.

He captioned a series of photos of the forest fire: “A fire swept through our mountain, our home! The [loss] seems to be great! It’s still burning! I’ll keep everyone posted! God bless!”
