Tonight is a celebration. And at the same time, I can’t put into words how devastating. It's the first place I've been publicly.” She added, “I said goodbye to her two weeks ago, kissed her on the forehead.

Her eyebrows were still perfect. She was unlike anyone in our family, and I miss her so much. But I will continue to sing. I said I would.” Wynonna went on to announce that she would “honor” her mother and continue the tour. “So, I made a decision, that after a lot of thought, I’m gonna have to honor her, I'm gonna do this tour, because that’s what you would want.
