Dwana, I’m reading you book now. A great book! May you rest with your daddy and momma now in heaven. You were strong like your daddy, you made him and your family proud!
I was 13 when that happened. I remember watching the movie and your Dad instantly became my hero. You have had a tragic childhood and I wish you all the best for the rest of your life. Your Mom and Dad will always have a place in my heart. Take care Dwana. Frank Dagg Maple Ridge B.C.
What a fine lady inside and outside beautiful, who has been through so much. I read her book, "Still Walking." Very good read, and such honesty, and grace, and love.
Met Mr. Pusser while him an Dewanna were vacationing in Florida, an were staying at Holiday Inn. Spent 1 afternoon talking about a million things. Felt like I knew him all my life. He was such a down to earth, passionate about his life, kind of man. We parted as new friends, promising 2 see each other again sometime, somewhere. He told me of a premonition that he dreamed of having an "accident of somekind" and not being able to "see his daughter",. He was telling me this, his eyes tearing up. Very shortly, within days of this, he was gone. Such a sad, sad ending to a courgeous man who had the heart of a lion.
Wow thanks for sharing this poignant story. There are liars and bearers of false against this courageous, one in million man. Evil hates good and will lie like a dog; to take him down. So many tried to kill him constantly. I guess that was the Lord getting him ready to meet his maker. I feel sorry his daughter had to grow up parentless. I know that Buford's mother was there for her while she was alive. Sad, sad story of a great American Hero. Abraham was killed for trying to do good. He defended a catholic priest who was sharing the bible to his church. That is no no for catholics. They have their own bible which is not allowed for the parishoners and they jesuits never forget and that's why he was killed. Very sad world we live in. Fortunately, Jesus is coming back VERY SOON!
I moved from Jackson, TN to Huntsville, AL to work for NASA in 1965. I recall reading fascinating newspaper stories about your father's exploits while being the sheriff. I've seen all the movies but there was one news article that I remember that was one of the most heroic of all, yet this incident was never shown in any of the movies. He was attempting to arrest a man who was trying to flee in a pickup truck. As the man started driving away, he jumped on the step and struggled with the driver as he sped away. The suspect shot him twice but the sheriff still overpowered him and put him in jail! Enjoyed hearing your stories on the Frankie Lax Show today.
Dwana , I got to tour the museum, what a great experience , thanks so much for not giving and opening the museum ! What a great way to honor your dad !!!
Rest in peace honey. Your father I will honor my whole life. You were soooooo beautiful. Thank you for sharing your life story with us. Love you. And miss you Dwana.
Great person! I grew up in south and always admired the man. I am glad to see he is remembered and respected. We need a whole lot more of him. Thanks Dwana!
Yes your dad was a American Hero. I just finished watching all three of the first three movies again. And watching you tube videos about him. I wish we had more like him.
@@marvinmartian7281 Just respect her memory man. You don't know for sure where she went after she passed so let her rest and keep your opinions to your ignorant self.
he was a good man i would have loved to meet him and have a cup of coffee and just talk to him im sorry this happened to both him and pauline i saw the movie i cried through it
He was a tyrant and POS. Dwana, was a dope head and drunk. She stayed at my house drunk and high while her greedy Dad was murdered. Go ahead and argue my point. I have actual film coverage on this POS in action.
Me too. Have you read her book "Walking On." It is so good and so full of her life and dreams, and not once is she bitter from all the hatred that was taken out on her family. I just read it again the second time. I was wondering if she was okay since I heard she had MS and we hadn't heard anything more from her until this. She is such a sweet person and so kind to everyone.
I wish that I could have met her father and I'm fortunately I would never ever get to meet her at least you passed away and there were three of them all of very good people and I'm so sorry I love the movies I love all of them that is a great movie I wish there was more man like mr. Buford person
your dad was an awesome man and we know were he is .for standing up for what is good and right in heaven !! and I'm glad their is a good peace of him still living in this world I hope ur treated well were ever you go in this world. coz you diserive to be and I hope you brought some kid's in the world and one is a boy who growes up to be a good man like ur dad !!! may God bless you and ur Family.
@@fuzzamajumula shot 8 times...stabbed 7 times. Took down 6 guys that attacked him( 3 to hospital and 3 arrested) I'd say he was pretty tough and walked taller than his 6ft 6inches...more like 10 ft tall.
Dwana, I have to apologist for some of my fellow posters; the nut jobs you see posting here; it's unbelievable how stupid and crude some people can be. But I just wanted to let you know that my wife and I visited the museum last summer and was completely fascinated by it. You guys have done a wonderful job putting it together. God Bless.
Rest in peace I know that life can be difficult sometimes but your dad would have been proud of you and no matter what you would have done and your mom for anybody that reach this just remember that there's always light at the end the darkest tunnels in the world and always put your face first in front of everything and life will always get better your dad's one of my biggest Heroes he was a real man and I think the people's really should look up to him and I appreciate all that you did and honoring his legacy I do believe that the answer to happiness is faith I'm sorry you felt the need to go the way you did but I hope that you see your mom and dad again and have I hope to meet your dad at Heaven too and shake his hand and you too because you are all sore hero because in a way you stood up for what you believe is right you wanted to honor a real hero so I thank you for starting the museum...
I stopped by last week mid day, but sadly, bad timing on my part probably. I think you were closed, or out. Well, I did a tribute to the Pusser family here on my channel: ua-cam.com/video/8HJmIfG7B_g/v-deo.html Mr. Pusser is a huge hero of mine...I wish I could have met him back then. What an amazing legacy. And what an all American role model for all to follow. May the entire family that has passed, Rest In Peace.
As Dwana mentioned in this video her mother had two children from a previous marriage, a son and a daughter, the daughter wanted no part of the movie when it was made and so she wasn't shown or mentioned.
wow! havent seen you since about 1976. my name is stan. i live in newton kansas. stan jones on face book. mike cagle is my nephew. you and he went to high school together. good to see you. look us up on face book.
I just recently read that she has passed away .i don't know all the details.her father was a legendary Lawman.she was Brave&Beautiful.R.I.P.Lovly 👩 lady.😍😍😍😍😍
Diana Pusser passed away March 8, 2018. She was found in her home , but foul play was not suspected. She was 56 years old. R.I.P. Deana Pusser Garrison. 💔
I was wondering if you ever thought about having a video game about Buford made? Having a game with all those big long V8s chasing around might make a good game. Just an idea.
What a nice Introduction to her Family. Without knowing details, I’m hopeful she ended up in Witness Protection. The MOB is widely interconnected. They’ve been involved in another Criminal effort that’s currently being removed by Military. It’s thought she would have been a high value Target hopefully forcing her into Witness Protection using Suicide as an excuse.
hey Dwana, I knew about your father Buford Pusser.He was a great man who became a sheriff in McNairy County,Tn.But i need information how to make my true story called Walking Tall. I have been walked tall in my life in 1981 to Present.If you have any ideas for my true story of Walking tall & I wanted to talk about how i lived & work & stuff.I wanted teach other people about my life.
Andrew Joseph Hasty omg !! Will you ever make a movie ?? Or write a book ?? Can I cut your grass ?? Or maybe wash your car ?? Clean your pool ????? Any thing !!
Did Elvis Presley man made a comment on the comment was made that Elvis Presley bought your daddy's house for him as a gift and him and Elvis was friends Elvis came and stayed at the house and and went to your daddy's funeral
Buford Pusser was killed on Von Mraz talk show host Problematic Americas 15 birthday which I know we were worlds apart makes a soft spot in my heart for the legendary. law man sincerely Von Mraz
@@bettyahlheit2071 no he wasn't ! He was a man of integrity and he couldn't be bought off. We.need real men like Buford Pusser today. Maybe then the world would be a better place.
I know Dawana is gone now too. But what I don't understand why in the original Walking Talk movie it portrait Buford having a son too. Why when he doesn't have one
R.I.P Buford, Pauline & Dwana Pusser. Y’all are still remembered in 2023 ❤
Rest In Peace ms Dawna 😢😢
Dwana, I’m reading you book now. A great book! May you rest with your daddy and momma now in heaven. You were strong like your daddy, you made him and your family proud!
Dwana, one day I plan on visiting your dad's museum. I really admired your dad.
I was 13 when that happened. I remember watching the movie and your Dad instantly became my hero. You have had a tragic childhood and I wish you all the best for the rest of your life. Your Mom and Dad will always have a place in my heart. Take care Dwana. Frank Dagg Maple Ridge B.C.
Her grandparents probably raised her. I wonder why she took her own life.
this is the kind of lawman we need today what a gutsy man this is an example to live by
no we dont he was acually a dirty cop
@@robertcollett7115 But your mom loved him.
Liar, NO Proof, you bear false witness against your neighbor and that is a sin.@@robertcollett7115
No we don’t
A great American hero! Rest in peace Buford and his love!
Your father was an american Hero ! Thank you Dwana
RIP DWANA !

I saw Mr. Pusser at a movie theater when I was a kid and he looked so big and tuff!! I was afraid to make eye contact!
I will miss you both keep walking tall in heaven R.I.P.
She is a beautiful lady.. Her dad and mom would be so proud of her. I know I am. Mark A. Sanderson

RIP Dawana😔
Buford was a real American hero. Dwana Pusser carried on their name very well. Rip all of you. 😢
TAKE IT EASY LOVE ANGEL, I'M SURE MISS PUSSER HAS HEARD IT ALL BEFORE.
Your dad spoke softly and carry a big stick.
Damn sad day, Rip Dwana pusser
Was it ever stated how she passed away?
@@flippindocks8183 , I read in some other comments that said she killed herself. Not sure if that is accurate or not sir .
@@flippindocks8183 She committed sucide.
Omg, I did not know she died. She was beautiful
@@CasinoMan2005 very beautiful
he was a good man i would have loved to meet him and have a cup of coffee and just talk to him im sorry this happened to both him and pauline i saw the movie i cried through it
He is a legend, RIP young lady
He was a tyrant and POS. Dwana, was a dope head and drunk. She stayed at my house drunk and high while her greedy Dad was murdered.
Go ahead and argue my point. I have actual film coverage on this POS in action.
Deana, thanks..I'm going to make it down there, I saw the other museum display in the early 1990s..take care and hope to see you soon..
Me too. Have you read her book "Walking On." It is so good and so full of her life and dreams, and not once is she bitter from all the hatred that was taken out on her family.

Burford kicked ass!!!
wow, you really believe all that hollyweird superhero crap? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
dwana, your father was and is an american hero, he will be remebered as a hero, please ignore the nutt jobs who make unkind remarks
Yes they are just trolls who go to every youtube post and want to fight and be hateful.
Your dad really did walk tall. Damn shame how them cowards took him out.
He died in a single car accident in 1974. He survived being shot, twice.
@@fuzzamajumula shot 8 times...stabbed 7 times. Took down 6 guys that attacked him( 3 to hospital and 3 arrested)
I'd say he was pretty tough and walked taller than his 6ft 6inches...more like 10 ft tall.
Looks like her mom! Both are very pretty ladies
we need more men like your Dad in Law Enforcement-he was the Man!!!
My prayers for the family.
Rest in peace Dwana. Sadly missed
RIP Pusser Family
met him as a kid dam GREAT man ,,
Hope to get there one day, always thought of Buford as a hero man to look up to.
i agree
I just this moment found out you have passed, i remember when you were a kid and had come up to nashville. RIP ❤
Is Buford Pusser that hardcore badass that beat the shit out of all the criminals in his town?
Yeah, the "Walking Tall" guy (movies-they remade the originals with the Rock I believe.)
Dwana, I have to apologist for some of my fellow posters; the nut jobs you see posting here; it's unbelievable how stupid and crude some people can be. But I just wanted to let you know that my wife and I visited the museum last summer and was completely fascinated by it. You guys have done a wonderful job putting it together. God Bless.
the video was great hope to go to Tenn. To see both Buford and Elvis.
Rest in peace I know that life can be difficult sometimes but your dad would have been proud of you and no matter what you would have done and your mom for anybody that reach this just remember that there's always light at the end the darkest tunnels in the world and always put your face first in front of everything and life will always get better your dad's one of my biggest Heroes he was a real man and I think the people's really should look up to him and I appreciate all that you did and honoring his legacy
I do believe that the answer to happiness is faith I'm sorry you felt the need to go the way you did but I hope that you see your mom and dad again and have I hope to meet your dad at Heaven too and shake his hand and you too because you are all sore hero because in a way you stood up for what you believe is right you wanted to honor a real hero so I thank you for starting the museum...
Sadly, Dwana passed away earlier this year. At least the family is now together again.
Breaks My Heart watching her Video. My family and I were personal friends of Buford. Major Loss. Especially her Children 😔

I’d love to go there.
In the movie Walking Tall, Buford has
two children..Son was named Mike..There is no reference to him when I read about his family..Only his daughter.
jabm0495 In real life he actually only had one child and that was Dwana. For some reason the producers added a son.
As Dwana mentioned in this video her mother had two children from a previous marriage, a son and a daughter, the daughter wanted no part of the movie when it was made and so she wasn't shown or mentioned.
Rip Deana pusser
So amazing
RIP DWANA.
hero. period.

Hi Dwana

Nice woman
Is he related to buford t justice from texas
Is it true that Elvis donated money to the Sheriff?
yes Elvis Presley did donated money to Sheriff Buford Pusser.
cowboysteel yes he did
RIP Dwana
I'm glad I came here to learn the real truth about Mr. Pusser. I watched the movie Standing Tall and realized the movie was dedicated to him.
Long time Mississippi folk tell a different story
Dwana, who runs the motel?

Lay off that shine
Don't ever tell a red headed woman she cannot do something!! BB
She committed Suicide feel so bad

One of the creepiest youtube videos ever.
The remake with The Rock was lame and corny compared to the original with Baker.
I agree 👍
If I had known Dwana was that hot I’d married her myself
he was just as bad as the criminal
Betty Ahlheit no he wasn't, he had to be a hardass to go up against the state line mob. you should study up on his life.
yes he was
Betty Ahlheit that's right, he was a good sheriff.
@@bettyahlheit2071 no he wasn't ! He was a man of integrity and he couldn't be bought off. We.need real men like Buford Pusser today. Maybe then the world would be a better place.
Musta caught you breaking the law ,or for being old bag hot air
I know Dawana is gone now too. But what I don't understand why in the original Walking Talk movie it portrait Buford having a son too. Why when he doesn't have one
Maybe it was his stepson, Mike.
