The Cajun Music community recently lost one of its icons when Mr. Belton Richard passed away.

At his burial, as friends and family gathered, a Cajun band played a Cajun song and a family member of his danced with a pastor.

I know of his music and I know that Mr. Richard was smiling down on this beautiful tribute. What a gesture by all in this amazing video.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Richard family during this difficult time.
