His direction came from the pipe and his belief in the ceremonies that Kisaymanito gave the Cree. He was a true Ohskapayos.

He loved powwow and was a champion fancy dancer in the 70s, he loved fastball which he won Best Catcher award in 1987, was also a great goalie. He was a proud and very loving husband, dad, Mosom, brother, uncle father in-law and friend.
