According to his family, Billy Brown died from a seizure after suffering from multiple health issues in the past.
“We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved patriarch Billy Brown passed away last night after suffering from a seizure,” Bear captioned an Instagram post.
“He was our best friend – a wonderful and loving dad, granddad and husband and he will be dearly missed. He lived his life on his terms, off the grid and off the land and taught us to live like that as well.
“We plan to honor his legacy going forward, and to continue with his dream.”
Just days before his death, he gave a chilling warning on camera, saying “God has blessed me so much, but I won’t be around forever.”
He later went on to talk about what he hopes will happen to him after death saying, “To me, the most important thing is to make sure that the family core would go on.
“The ranch will go on forever as long as it’s set up right. The ranch must keep growing.”
The footage, which was released in September 2021, features members of the family shouting: “Wake up dad!”
Billy’s death came less than one year after, his niece, Amber Branson, died from “severe injuries sustained in a fire” in Texas.
Was Billy Brown hospitalized in the past?
Over the past few years, Brown was in and out of the hospital and was told by medical personnel that high altitude isn’t helping him.
Doctors advised the 68-year-old that the higher he is from sea level, the harder it is for the Alaskan Bush People patriarch to breathe.
Nonetheless, he defied doctor’s orders and continued to live on the mountains with his family.
After returning home from one particular hospital visit, Brown 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.
In heartbreaking scenes on the reality show, Brown’s wife Ami told their adult kids that their father wasn’t going to get better.
