Kirt Houle Memorial Fund
On May 28, 2006 Kirt Houle walked on to the Spirit world. The circumstances and reason for his death are still unknown to those of us who love him. Born September 2, 1965 Kirt was a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa. He was a fine man, talented in many areas and loved by many. Left behind are his Partner in Life and Love, Carol Two Eagle as well as two young boys, Kirt Bradley Houle, Jr. and Ryan Mitchell Houle. Also left are many brothers and sisters, Aunties and Uncles. Among his brothers I know the names of Ernest, Joe and David. My sincere apologies to all for omitting any names, I will add them to this as they become available to me.
A Traditional wake was held in Mandan, ND and Kirt was carried home to Belcourt at Turtle Mountain for his final rest.
We are all still faced with how his boys will be cared for. Unfortunately, there was no life insurance, and these boys are young, with a life ahead of them, and no Father to help them along. Kirt worked hard and diligently to provide for his boys, and had in fact traveled to Mississippi and Florida to work at hurricane clean up earlier this year so that he could provide for them. These boys will continue to need things, clothing, housing, school books as they grow. And so we are asking for help from the Indian community, his friends, those who loved him and even those of you who may have never heard of him, but realize that this could be your family that was left behind, because life happens and ends as Creator chooses, not how we plan.
Donations are currently being handled through PayPal. A bank account is being established at the bank where Kirt banked at in North Dakota, and info on that account will be posted here so that you may make your donations directly to that account. An attorney will also be appointed to see that the funds are handled properly for the boys. That information is also soon coming.
We ask that you search your heart deeply and consider these children. If you would like to make a donation, you may use the link below to donate through PayPal, all funds will be moved into the trust account immediately.
