- Hi everyone, I am touching base with a borderline boring update to let you all know my plans. I appreciate all of you who have offered kind words, words of wisdom, and compassion during this time. The camping will continue and we will see how this all works out.

Camping with Steve or grieving with Steve, we're with Steve. ❤️
That is the absolute truth
True words ❤️
I couldn't agree more. I take what I can get anything with Steve is better than nothing. Take as long as you need. I'll be here waiting to watch when your ready.
I'm with him no matter what! ✌
Amen!
Hard to believe there’s a 1% that wants to be so negative and harsh. We love you Steve.
I really can't imagine who that 1% could be, what subhuman thing someone would say. Steve is one of the best people on this planet
Yes, those 1% are “unsat” (military vernacular).
There’s a TH-cam channel that’s been made to troll Steve. It’s disgusting
@@cillavision Some are from a certain infamous anonymous message board, sitting alone in a room with nothing better to do with their lives.
Exactly what I came to say!
Who in the hell on earth would say something negative after such a kind and nice guy loses his wife? That's just incredible.
Its incredible for someone to say something negative???? what 😂😂 think before you type my guy
After John Dingell passed away, President Trump was on the phone with his grieving wife and suggested to her that he was not in Heaven but Hell. Steve is right...some people are just jerks.
@@vael3216 🤡🤡🤡
@@vael3216 incredible means unbelievable in the literal sense, so it’s more than fair usage of the word
@@vael3216 he obviously meant incredible as in shocking. Not sure why you'd disparage John's positive comment by being a smart ass, it takes away from the his entire message which was positive. Do better Val. Be a better person.
Hi Steve, my son lost his wife on September 14th. Her name was Jess as well. It’s so very hard to continue day after day and we totally understand what you are going through. My son has a little guy that just turned 5 who is also missing his Mommy. You must take care of you , there is no time limit on grief.
Sorry for your loss😢
So sorry to hear this ❤
Awe so sorry to hear that. I just lost my partner too. He was 50 and I’m devastated. Nothing more heart breaking than losing a wife or husband and for a child to lose their parent is so awful just heart breaking.
@@NMW80 I wish you the best. We all lose people and it´s tough but we have to keep living our lives. I hope you have a wonderful day.
@@mariposagalactica7892 Tysm 💖
I know I have to keep going but it’s so hard when you have been with that person your whole adult life pretty much. I don’t want to live without him now but I have no choice 😭
I’m only 43 I guess if we were both a lot older it wouldn’t be as hard but it’s still sad no matter what age.
very thankful to call you a friend steve
Two legends.
49 seconds ago! I just saved your video to watch later lol
Glad you took the opportunity to visit, Mav. Safe travels.
You two should do more together. Would be great content
Tell him Melvin loves what he does :) FRIENDS !!!! From Washington State .
"Everything's gonna be alright". You're such a pure soul, Steve. Never change. We love you & appreciate you so so much
Thank you for the kind words
Steve your the best, remember that there is a plan for you and you will endure with this community who has your back
@@campingwithsteve legend
My brother of the wild blue yonder, I was just speaking about you and beautiful wife with my mother, explaining to her about ‘Canada Nice’. You sir, and everyone you surround yourself with are the epitome of that very thing. I’ll just reiterate what I see hundreds and soon to be thousands have already told you: you are a good egg, Charlie Brown. God Speed, Cheers and may all your tomorrows be better than today.
@@campingwithsteve
Hey Steve!
I hope some of my "step 2" things from RPMfest weren't too horrible.
I know 1 was a certain style of "Spring water" called of all things, liquid Death.
I was trying to have something funny but it may not've come off that way.
I did try for a more full fledged video which I have on my channel that I dedicated to you, your fans & anybody else from that same event & tried to put it on the FB page but I guess that didn't make it.. Again, I tried to make things humorous by showing all my "camping neighbors" & posed a jokey question to you asking you if you ever had that as a situation.
Again, trying to lift your spirits if possible.
i can't believe that there's people out there that are so insanely cruel they would say hurtful things to such a clearly kind soul and such a warm heart.
@John Hancock Trust me, you better off not knowing, its absolutely vile.
@@MiniOne82 omg fr what is wrong with some ppl my god it sucks there is scum in this world
@@MiniOne82 I can't stand those losers. You can tell they live on tik tok.
"I don't know what stage in the grieving process that 'scream at the sky is'" That one resonated with me.
Hope you're well bud. You put so much good into the world. Don't let that be taken from you.
Everything will be alright. Just as you said. Many many hugs
This channel isn't Camping with Steve, Steve. It's just being with Steve. You take the time you need, upload what you want to upload, and grieve how you want to grieve. We're here for you.
Dell and I are still praying for you and your Families. ❤
Yea he could just drink a cold beer and cook and I would still like watching it, the best laid back channel out here is Steve.
Yes it being with Steve. Feel like he is a brother.
Legit the main reason I watch is firstly for steve. Something very soothing and down to earth in the way you talk. Second reason would be for those stealth camps ;) haha
Couldn't agree more here. ❤
Hate you’re going through those idiots man! Happy you’re picking up on content again. Keep on keeping on 👊
Agreed, it's sad that some people try to push the wildest agendas just to chase clout. I hope all of these toxic people making these wildly defamatory accusations get sued some day.
Donut never though we would have the same taste for such great content
999
As my old man used to say to me that the world is full of idiots & a holes, the important factor is that the good & the many out weigh the a holes. Unfortunately we can't have a world with everything being nice & perfect, as the saying goes without the low valleys there will be no mountain peaks, focus on the positive discard the negatives is how you survive. Best ever advise I got from my old man when he was still around.
Hi donut, funny seeing you here!
We are the 99%. We love you Steve! Stay strong, we’ve got your back!
There needs to be more people like Steve in this world. One of those guys you could talk to for hours
I planted a tree here on Denmark in honor of Jess yesterday. A Douglas fir and hope it will grow to be just as majestic as she was :) Stay strong Steve. Thinking of you every day.
Respekt ❤
good on you Man 👍👍😊👏
Awww that is super sweet of you ❤ im sure Jess loves it
Lies
@The Masked Wolf you’re the comments he’s talking about
The important part of your channel isn't "Camping", it's "with Steve." You say you don't want to be depressing, but that's part of our journey on this planet. If that's what you're going through, we're there with you. We love you man.
couldnt have said it any better. here here!
Cheers! Well said!
Nicely said
We love you Steve!
Absolutely! ❤
Going through a sucker punch like this in life, it is so vital to hold onto something that will help you stay grounded. Praying for you. 🫂
Absolutely everything in my life has fallen apart, but you know what? You have always been there to calmly camp with me and let me know everythings gonna be okay. You are one of a few that have a role in saving my life. Please remember this. Love you buddy!
Even the worse is only a temporary situation. Always remember that.
It is amazing how the personal journeys of interesting youtubers like Steve help people to cope. Thanks for sharing. Some people who choose to share a piece of their lives on youtube are really helping humanity.
The 99% are totally content with riding the grieving with Steve train for as long as you need to. So pleased to see you again Steve, it's a real privilege. Thank you for taking the time to make this and thank you Steve's sister and everyone else who supports him, you're all amazing ❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful, perfect words
Perfectly said
Absolutely!❤
We're behind you all 100%! We understand that it's a tough time for you, we want to help any way we can and we'll be here when ever you're ready to come back! In the mean time, wwe have plenty of old episodes to rewatch!
Very well said
Hi Steve. I have to be honest and say that while I'm not a follower of your channel, my parents are close friends of your in-laws, Jess's parents, and I feel moved to leave a comment. I didn't know Jessica all that well, though we do share a name and a shoe size (which I know because she took a lot of my cast-offs when we were teens--good taste, that one!). However, I was deeply affected by her passing and attended her beautiful funeral service with my parents. What I do remember about Jess was her gentle, ready smile, and just how warm she was. I will always remember how welcoming and at ease she seemed, and that's exactly how she made others feel by extension. I also remember seeing a piece of gorgeous, brilliantly colorful art that Jessica had made hanging in her parents' home (I believe it was a lion, but this was a few years ago now, so I could be wrong). When I saw it, I was moved to tears. Before then, I'd had no idea that she was such an immensely talented artist. I hope this comment isn't unwelcome or insensitive; I know you're still grieving and I cannot imagine what you must be going through. But your comment in this video that this channel is called camping with Steve and not grieving with Steve... I think the main part to remember is "WITH Steve." Your followers clearly care deeply for you, and I hope you continue to draw comfort from that. Your positive attitude shines through here, and that's incredibly admirable. I can easily picture Jess smiling at you for it. You are in my thoughts and in my prayers, friend.
Jess changed everyone for the better once they met her. She was an amazing artist, just like she was at so many things. She'll be a light for all of us going forward.
Kathleen (Steve's sister)
Steve or if whomever is moderating for him can get him a message. Perhaps a video showcase of her art and a little of her life could be a healing thing. And I know many of us would like to get to know her better. I know she didn't want to be on camera and I respect that but there is much more to a person that can be shown than just their face.
Very nicely said Jessica!!
Whomever wrote this made me cry and remind me of my loss *shaking fist vigorously*😉
That’s a 10 out of 10 comment
I can’t understand why people would be negative towards you when all you promote is positivity and great vibes. We love you Steve, I wish we could all take away your pain my friend. Lots of love to you brother. ❤
Some people live in a very dark place, sadly. All we can do is be ready to give them support when they have a change of heart.
Steve......... you camp...we camp........you grieve.....we grieve with you.......always.
99% of us sending you nothing but love Steve. Do what you need to do. I’m sure we’ll all still be here
Totally agree Mike. The 1% aren't worth listening to. Loss is hard. But we keep moving. We have to remember happy memories. Still feel the love. And love projected to Steve and his family. Hard times. But happy memories keep us going.
right on. yes we are here. positive vibes for Steve.
❤
I’m always here!
1% is likely actually low balling it. There’s a element of horrible people on the web that aren’t worth your time.
Stay strong my friend.
I lost my wife 15 years ago due to a car wreck. Raised a 5 year old boy with help from my parents. I feel for you man. Montana Steve sending thoughts and prayers. Be strong my friend.
Fucking hell. That's tough
May she rest in peace. I’m sorry for your loss. Hope you and your family recovered well.
@i better call get the fuck out of here with that shit.
I'm so sorry sir, what a blessing you are to your son.
@i better call STOP IT !!
Promotion of a channel- disgusting!!!!
So few rock stars left in this world steve and you’re the coolest of all of them. Love from Philadelphia.
Love you Steve. So sorry for your loss. Glad you are still going to make videos.
Steve, I lost my wife, daughter and then my Mom all within 2 years. Two weeks after my mom passed, I was electrocuted with 460 volts. I am a HVAC guy but you became my hero. After hearing about your loss, my heart melted. Do what you do to make you happy and we are here for you. I am so sorry for your loss.
My friend was killed last month doing HVAC repair. I’m happy you made it.
Sorry to hear your situation I can't imagine the pain
Damn, Jim. That's no good. Sorry to hear that all happened. I never had any other family than my dad and when he passed it took 2 years just for me to not think about him constantly. I can't imagine dealing with what you had to.
So sorry for your losses Jim.
I can't even begin to imagine how to handle what you've gone through... even though i'm just some random on the internet, i hope the rest of your life is filled with peace and no more suffering and ,if possible, you find happiness and joy.
A few years ago, I came to this channel for the camping. But I stayed for Steve. I don't care where this channel goes, I like Steve.
Me too.
Yep
Same. What a beautiful, genuine person he is.
I like that turn of phrase: Come for the stealth camping, stay for the Steve (& hunker down!).
A true gem of a guy.
My roommate and I just found your channel and have become huge fans of yours, crazy neighbor, and of stealth camping. Our condolences for your loss and we look forward to supporting you and the channel as you take the time to heal
You are so down to earth Steve. I am so very sorry for the loss of your wife. I know exactly how you feel. Hang in there Steve. I love your videos. Thank you.
I lost my wife 3 years ago when she was only 32. I know what you're going through and I know it's hard. I know a lot of people will probably say that they're sorry for your loss and that everything will be ok but I'm not gonna say that. You're always gonna love your wife and you're always gonna miss her. There will be tough days and there will be good days. There will be little things that remind you of her and it will trigger both feelings of sadness and happiness. The hurt never completely goes away but over time it does get easier. I feel for you brother and we're all here for you.
I feel your pain. Had a similar experience loosing my wife when she was only 42.
Four years on and I still have hard days.
It certainly makes you look at life in a different way and to appreciate every day you have.
Hope you’re finding happiness again.

Exactly.
Don't ever for a second feel like you are being "depressing" by being real with us. The fact that you are upright and walking around is a miracle. Your grief is just the love you have for Jess persevering. I and many others are honored that you share some of yourself with us. Keep being true to yourself, and your real friends and fans will meet you where you are.
I 100% agree! I can't imagine! Amazing strength for sure!

@@BrianGay57 its bots--no real person
@u know me spambot
"I don't know where I'm going, but I hope you guys come along".... I'll be here for every video my brother. I love you. Stay strong, for your beautiful wife. We love you, Steve.
Hey Steve, I found you on youtube recently and love your videos, they are so relaxing. I am so sorry for your loss, I cannot imagine how hard it must have been for you, stay strong, you are a wonderful kind man. Please keep doing these videos, they are my go to for when i have had a bad day. Your furbaby is beautiful btw x
There’s ONE MILLION of us hunkering down with you. I really mean that. ❤️
EVERY NIGHT I SAY. HUNKER DOWN 🖤
@here is the full clip spambot
Camping/Grieving/Yelling at the sky with Steve.. doesn't matter, we'll all be here supporting you! It's always good to see one of your videos regardless of content.
I'd definitely give yelling at the sky with Steve a chance
@@ericsimon58 I think it is a great concept!👍
@@choochalah But what if the sky yells back? 🤣
@@ukp42 not sure about yelling but if the sky starts playing the horn that means Jesus is coming
Maranatha Lord Jesus 🤗
You are a phenomenal person, and the camping videos you make help me to pretend I’m actually brave enough to go out like you do. I have health problems that prevent me from being out for more than 3 days, so thank you so much for everything.
I know this is an old video by now but Steve, thank you for doing what you do. Your soothing energy is needed in this world.
It doesn't matter how long ago you lose someone, it will still be in your heart forever so any comments will help him
Grieving is not linear and it comes in waves. You’ll have many days where you want to scream at the sky and curse the ground. Give yourselves grace and know that there’s a whole lot of people out here thinking of you and your families. You’re amazing!! ❤
You are so right. Your words of wisdom are not only timely but absolutely important.
Well said...
People that don't live it think their a timeline followed. It's as individual as we are.
Well said!
32 years ago...goin on 33 in January.
My husband passed 1 week after our 14th wedding anniversary.
The impact of that ❤ will forever accompany me, and I accept it with great Pleasure.
❤
Whether its camping with you, grieving with you, laughing with you, crying with you....no difference Steve. You have a million plus that love and care for you. Yes, someday you will open your eyes and smile and know it truly is going to be alright....its all on your time. We are just here for ya. ❤
We do love you, Steve. Screw the 1%.
Well said.
Beautifully said friend. We’re sort of a never met family here. We’re all here for Steve. Always have been
I deleted my comment. It was too similar to yours. Just goes to show we really are pulling for Steve.
@@dobis3xtall217 you should've left it up...its how we all feel
Really feel for your mate, your so strong and inspirational! Love all your videos as well - keep going 👍
I really cannot figure out how I found this channel. At first I kinda watched like "what the hell?" And the next thing I knew I was hooked. You seem like a great guy man. I hope you can find peace with all of this. God bless.
I lost my dad last week and seeing you back just brought the biggest smile to my face! We are behind you Steve, one million strong!
Sorry for your loss man 🙏🏼
Lost my dad 9 years ago ... One of the biggest hits to any man. Praying for you
I lost my grandma 2 weeks ago and the day steve posted about his wife was the day i found out my grandma was being placed into hospice. Its been a very hard month for me as well. I can only imagine how steve feels
That's very tough, sorry to hear that. If you need any help there are some great counselling helplines. I was on them a lot when I experienced my losses. Had to let it out...
My brother in law and I had an incredible night stealth camping yesterday. Step 2 was dedicated to your wife. Thanks for inspiring us to explore and enjoy the outdoors. ❤️
Keep on keeping on my man. Sorry for your loss. Watching your videos is so peaceful. Love the step two.
Don’t shut down because of a few jerks. You’re one of the most well loved you tubers. Stay with us dude.
There is no one on youtube with a heart like Steve.
I would have to agree, out of all the influencers online Steve and Jess you both were the most genuine people. You are amazing sir, we all love you and you have millions of people standing behind you…
Having served as a funeral director and a pastor, something you said struck me. You said, "This is not grieving with Steve, but camping with Steve." I would like to encourage you though just to be you. The 99% appreciate the honesty and openness. My condolences again on the loss of your wife, I don't know what I would do should I lose my wife of 33 years now. You have been in my thoughts and prayers.
100 percent
Exactly he can talk about his wife and grieve in videos as much as he likes. If it helps him get through the grief then why not.
💯
You're a great influence on the TH-cam community and a joy to watch! I just got into your videos recently and it's actually calming to fall asleep to. Take care buddy!
My deepest condolences to you Steve and your family. I just found your channel and absolutely love it. Very relaxing!
I can’t even understand how anyone can have anything negative to say about him. He’s such a good guy
Because unfortunately the world has a tiny number of terrible humans.
Feel sorry for them. They got to be in a really bad place to hate themselves that much and attack people that are vulnerable.
Anger is a terrible way to live your life.
Fr that actually blows my mind
@@Tbone.357 The ones running the world springs to mind
I've been on TH-cam long enough to know, these people aren't fans. They will literally see what is trending and come to spray negativity, and if the TH-camr in question is having a hard time, all to the better. I've seen people obviously using multiple accounts -- replying to a question with the wrong handle is the proof -- just stirring up "Drama" to amuse themselves. Pretty much nothing to be done about people like that.
I lost my 11 year old son years ago. Screaming at the sky and crying my eyes out was an important step in healing. Best Wishes.
Sorry to hear that, man. I hope you thrive.
Sorry to hear that man. Thoughts and prayers with you
My condolences broseph. 🙏
I’m so sorry, man. Hold them in your heart. They speak to you from there.
Love ya Steve. Your videos help me to get my mind off my problems. It's hard to describe how calming and sometimes funny your videos are. You're amazing and so many people adore you. God bless you🙏
I’m not one to camp. I’ve never been. But your videos give me peace. I’m sorry for your loss. I hope life get easier as time goes on. 👍🏾
I don't think I've ever wanted to give a grown man a hug more in my life.
I think we all feel that way Wrink, I wanna just grab him and give him a big long hug!
For real man I've thought about this a lot. Love you Steve!! ❤️
Yeah. Grab him, wipe his tears away, take away the hurt, and tell him everything will be ok. (Tears in my eyes thinking about the jerks that would kick someone while they are down. So pathetic.) Hang in there Steve. We will go camping with you again very soon.
Came here to say the same thing.
So sorry for your loss, Steve. I lost my husband of 43 years back in June of this year. 😢 Allow yourself to grieve. Prayers for you.
So sorry for your loss, Edith 💔
I am very sorry for your loss that has to be so hard
Oh, Edith! Those were the days. Sending much love and prayers to you.
My condolences Edith! My prayers for you and your lose as well as Steve! Your Family of Camping with Steve are here for you as well 💜💜💜
Sorry for your loss
Your videos bring a lot of enjoyment to me and my family. We appreciate all you do and are so sorry for your loss.
Nothing but love & well wishes to you Steve. Your videos have brought many hope & joy. Wherever you are warmth will find you.
We fucking love you Steve. It actually pisses me off to know that there are people out there saying horrible things. Screw them ! they don't deserve to love you my man you are a legend. So happy to see that you are going to push through this. We love you and you have all of our support.
The reply comment is SPAM!!! I reported it.
@@gingersnapjudy It was thank you !
Thank you
@@campingwithsteve keep doing what you do. If you change it to hanging with Steve and just sit there I'll still watch and I'm sure most of your followers will. Sorry for your loss.
@@campingwithsteve Steve... messages from: I BETTER CALL are all spam. I've reported 3 comments already. 😵
Let’s not dwell on the 1%. Let’s celebrate the 99% that were floored by your loss and stand with you on your road to recovery. You are an absolute legend and we are here to support you in whatever you decide to do.
Easy to say but they don't need the bs atm, i say shut it down for now. Nobody needs to be reading the toxic bs from the internet during a time of loss and extreme stress.
well put :)
You can't really ignore them the same when you are the creator and they're directed at you. Some negative comments could shatter you when a situation like Steve. I've seen very good creators who are otherwise in a good position basically stop uploading videos because of toxic comments. Its can be serious business for the creator even when just 0.1%. But I agree with your sentiment anywho.
Hey Steve, just recently found your channel and binging it ever since. Keep doing you and stay strong, i tend to camp in places I probably shouldn’t at times and will hope to stumble across you someday. Your authenticity and genuineness shines through!
Dude I’ve never wanted to hang out with one of my favorite TH-camrs so much. I know some time has passed and that doesn’t heal all, but I hope you’re doing ok. This was hard news for a new fan for life.
Steve, if it had to be "Grieving with Steve" for a while I'd be right there watching. You do what you need to do to get through this the best you can. So many of us 99% are here to support you in any way we can. The disgusting 1% can f off. I'll be watching for them. I am just so discouraged by humanity sometimes. I sobbed my way through this video. You are an amazing person and we are here for you. Eventually everything will be alright. It won't ever be the same, but it will be alright.
I think he should have named names. So we can know who the scum are.

I’m sorry to hear about your loss but please keep doing what your doing and never let anyone bring you down!!!! Since I’ve found your channel, I’ve been benching on them. I can’t get enough, it teaches me to appreciate what I have and not what I don’t have and I have a lot. Thank you, and we are all here for you. Love you buddy, take care❤
I just started watching your videos but I’m so sorry for your loss. She will always be in your heart and looking over you as an Angel. Keep up the good work Sir. New fan here
I'm having to say a lo-o-o-ong goodbye to my husband of 52 years due to dementia. Watching your videos has provided company to me and a reason to smile. I'm so sorry for your terrible loss. I'm praying for you.
I'm sure he will be waiting for you on the other side to hunker down. I'm sorry for your loss
I lost my dad to the same.i crying for all our losses thanks
Dementia is so tough, I'm a certified Nursing assistant it's hard to watch families deal with that. My thoughts and prayers
God Bless, hold on to those precious memories and your precious husband this is such a difficult disease for all involved. I'm sending happy thoughts your way..
I too am caring for my husband of 51 years who has dementia. It is a terrible disease. You lose a little piece each day. I pray for you. Steve, you have brought a lot of joy to all of us. Take care of yourself.
Absolutely disgusting that anyone would give Steve anything other than love and support. Steve, you took a month but if you need another month, a year, you take it! Take care of yourself, we will be here! I never met you or Jess but I can honestly say I love and support you. If you need anything send me a message and I will help in any way I can.
It’s the internet, it’s how it is here, if someone dies, they don’t get peace online, I mean just look at the Queen, or that one youtuber a few months ago
This is the 99% community. 👍👍
I love your videos! Thank you for sharing your life with us. I have learned a lot about stealth camping from you. You rule Steve!
Steve is an absolute legend. I'm so thankful I found this man so many years ago. I wouldn't even be here on this world if it wasn't for Steve and his wholesome values and attitude. I made it thru quite a few dark night with him playing on my phone. Love you buddy stay strong and stay safe.
My mum passed away 12 weeks ago and in the 2 weeks before she died we both discovered that we were both subscribed to your channel. We watched some of your videos in hospital the week she passed. You helped us in a tough time and for that I will be forever grateful. Sorry for your loss my friend xx big love from London
RIP to your mum ❤
sorry to hear about your mum
Mate that’s a great story but it made me tear up a little, hope your ma can rest peacefully now.
Aww ): Thats sad, I hope your life gets better and your mum rests well!
I'm sorry for your loss. I'm dreading the day with my mum. She's my best friend and my world. 💜
“Everything’s going to be alright.” - Beautiful words Steve.
... and when I read those words, I hear Steve's voice. It's OK to be real, Steve. Being sad is not morbid & Joy will eventually return - really return - yes, really really (eventually) joy will return. I hope Steve can feel the same comfort in those words.
Gotta listen to Bob Marley. I hear his words when Steve talks.
I've just found your channel and you are so strong, creative and incredibly friendly and lovely. I hope you are healing from your loss and you're clearly still able to celebrate Jess and her legacy which is amazing. All the love to you and all of your family ❤️
Steve!! I know the odds of you actually seeing this are low, but I've been enjoying maybe a few too many step 2's and I feel compelled to say something. In today's truly crazy world, you have provided literally millions of people with joy, contentment, peace, and happiness. Maybe a few too many of us need to sign onto Zoom and pretend we're Wall-E in the morning. Maybe a few too many of us are checking toxic news out before we take a sip of coffee or a breath of fresh air. Thank you so much my friend, for not only being inspiration but being an escape for so many that wish to live simply and freely and might not have "crown land" or the resources to do it upon. Happy New Year to you good sir!
Man, you don't have to apologize. We are not just here for a good time. We are here for YOU. We've all grown to love and appreciate you and we are pulling for you. Just keep being you.
Absolutely
100% agreed.
Well, remember, his wife was a huge part of him. He is going to change a bit, there's no avoiding it. All his subscribers can do is support him through the comments.
“I don’t know what stage screaming at the sky is, but everybody does it.” Some of the wisest words I’ve ever heard. Steve, you’re a good man. Thank you for being you. Stay strong friend. You’re not alone.

It's right everybody does it lol funny
You are a very strong person Steve. Thank you for your awesome videos and outdoor adventures!
I found this in my news feed one day and been watching ever since. These are awesome videos to watch. Keep up the great work.
I never comment on a video. Spent a long time in the military. Loss is expected, but I still have a hard time with it. I wept when you addressed your loss. There is always going to be that 10% of the bottom of the barrel. Your strength and commitment to your community will never lead you wrong. I am just an everyday joe, but you made me buy a tent for the first time since the desert. Do what you can to make you happy, the 1.1 million of will always follow.
Thanks for your service.
Can imagine you’ve had loss as well!
Stay strong and keep using that tent to hunker down!
“bottom of the barrel”.....well put.
Thank you Shawn for looking out for us! Hugs my friend!
@hope. spambot
Enjoy the wild, Shawn.
"I don't know where I'm going, but I hope you come along" is a phrase that hits me deep in my soul. To the wild, Steve.
That line had Steve from Blues Clues vibes and I love it.
Truth.
You can count on the 99% to follow you anywhere...safe travels.
Just began watching your channel last week, and came upon these videos about your wife today. So sorry for your loss. Recovery from loss takes many forms, at least in my experience. Praying for your recovery, but don't be afraid to remember your wife and simply cry. Peace+
Prayers to you and your family. Good to see you again, I can’t imagine how you feel. I appreciate your videos and your courage to address all of us out here that care. Be safe.
Steve I doubt you'll see this but your sooo loved by 1.3 million strangers and I hope you feel even 0.1% of us hugging you. I hope you get through this and the very same to your sister we love y'all
with you as will we. Take care, love to you, your sister and both families. xx
12/10 can confirm
I lost my beautiful wife at 38, it happened unexpectedly in 2020. This was a the roughest part of my life. Take your time brother. Praying for you.
Man I'm really sorry to hear that. I hope you find solace in the community here and any other support system that you have.
Rough hit bud condolences
Keep going strong man ❤️
❤
Take your time...it's a long road. I lost my husband in 2007 when he was 41. You never get over it, you learn to live with it
Hi Steve. A few weeks ago I found and began very much enjoying the channel. Your gentle and kind demeanor makes you feel like an old friend. I've never have or felt compelled to comment on a video before. After hearing the news and this follow up, I had to send you my condolences. I'm very sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts. I hope you can find peace and happiness. Your videos are fantastic and I hope you can continue to make them.
Your channel has been my GO-TO place to get a sense of PEACE and RELAX after a stressful day. Your's is a simple, relaxing yet exciting channel. Thanks a lot for your videos. May God give you the strength you need.
We're here for camping with Steve, be it sad Steve, happy Steve, depressed Steve, whatever Steve you happen to be at the time. No need to keep the videos upbeat and happy buddy. We're here with you, no matter what.
Well said
Hear, hear. Also wanted to note that, having gone through the loss of a loved one in the not-too-distant past, grief is a winding and nonlinear journey. It's OK to be upbeat if you're feeling upbeat, and it's OK to come back down if that's where your heart is. You are a growing person, just like all of us, and being vulnerable helps us bond and know we are not alone. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Beautifully said.
We love you, Steve!
💕 sending all love and support Steve. Stay strong.
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. And almost equally sorry to hear that there are people making this harder for you than it needs to be. I'm glad to see you're back out there doing what you love. Love from MB man ❤️
Honestly, I'm sure most of us wouldn't mind a few "Grieving with Steve" videos for now. Don't worry about bringing us down or anything, we're here for your journey.
Last thing we want is for you to have to put on a happy face just for us.
And ignore the jerks. There will always be jerks. Just tell them to F-off.
I agree

Can’t imagine anyone being so callous and heartless that they felt the need to leave a crude or hurtful comment. My deepest condolences Steve. I’m a widow of over 13 years and it’s still hard. You’re in my prayers. Do what you need to do Steve. We’ll all be here when you’re ready to post again. We remain your faithful followers and supporters. Sending love from Texas. ❤🙏
I've been around this planet of ours for many, many decades & have met many, many people from all different walks of life. I can say with ABSOLUTE confidence that people who belittle others lead such a miserable little life that they have to "validate" themselves by being hurtful to others, just to make themselves feel superior to others. It's all they know how to do, unfortunately.
/So if you stop feeding the stray animal, they go elsewhere.
@@ScottMeister so true! If you can't take away the food source do your best to move it far away.
I enjoy every single one of your videos !!! You go man !! I look up to you !!!!! Also you rock and show us all how to survive when times are hard so we here to help you when times are hard !!!!
Just found your channel last week. You give a sense of comfortable isolation that I’ve never experienced before. A cautious optimism if you will. Thankful there are more of us like this. Fully stand with you and support you Steve! You take the time you need and do what feels right in your soul.
Don't you dare bow to the 1%...you're one of the most genuine guys on TH-cam and there is a lot of love for you mate. Love and prayers from the UK.
It's not "bowing to the 1%", it's preserving mental health and creating a place where he feels well.
@@grendl74 But then he'll miss out on that 99% of people who are giving him love and support. That 1% are people who have problems in there own lives looking to spread their misery. I haven't seen much of his channel but it's obvious he is a decent person and he shouldn't take what they're saying to heart...but then again it's easier said than done.
Hopefully the rude comments can just be deleted by Steve's sister (?).
Love and prayers from the USA, as well, to you, your families and friends throughout your healing/grieving process. May God bless, keep and sustain you.
5%, watch till the end before typing
I started watching your videos after suffering a loss. I had just moved to a new city and started a new job and was living in a borrowed 20 ft. camper. I couldn't sleep at night because my grief wouldn't let me. I watched TH-cam videos, because anything longer than most TH-cam videos was more than I could concentrate on. I found comfort in the camping and positive attitude and just your good nature. I started doing road trips and camping, and found real peace in the woods and discovering new places. I can never thank you enough for that.
I hope it all goes well for you, and that you find happiness and joy.
Isn't it amazing how many lives they have helped in a positive way... 1 major perk of of youtube if your lucky enough to find cool people like Mr. Wallis!
I just came across your channel and was loving the stealth camping. Then I saw your video about the loss of your wife, and that was like hitting a brick wall. I’m so so sorry for your loss. You’re a good person and deserve support and love.
Your situation makes me love and appreciate time with my family even more. Hoping the love of your family and friends overwhelms your grief.
We are all here for camping with Steve.. does not matter if its in a blanket fort in your living room, a camper, or a sewer drain. Make the content as your want.. and we will all be here when you do.
a blanket fort seems like a good idea ! =D
“Everything will be ok in the end. If it’s not ok, it’s not the end.” Be strong Steve.
I'm so glad I found your channel. I also lost my mom less de 2 yrs ago the same way. Your videos has been of help I find myself going back and rewatching them. My condolences. 🙏
I’m a new subscriber from Ohio, Steve. I absolutely love your videos, and I’m so very sorry for your loss. I lost my mother last May so I can relate to what you’re going through. I know we’ve never met, but please accept my sincere condolences, and thank you for being open enough to share this with us. Hang in there, Steve, and God bless!
