He went peacefully in his room. And for those of you who knew him, that sounds quite boring,” the eulogy read.“He lived an interesting life.

He was recently described as ‘Wild and Ungovernable.’ Just one example: Over a year ago he was hit by the train in Scottville on his way home from a pow wow.

Survived, but refused to go to the hospital for fear they would keep him from going competitive skiing in Helsinki in 7 days.
