Louis, also know as “Jr.”, while growing up had many hobbies like skateboarding, basketball, football, and playing with his cousins. Then he got introduced to horses by his cousin (brother), Jason Brave Heart. That became his passion as a young boy. They would always be out tending to horses and riding around great “unci Ada’s” house.
Throughout his older years, he learned to work on cars so he liked to mechanic. Louis was always helping wherever he could, he liked helping his family when he was able to. Jr was a friendly person, he enjoyed meeting new people during his years of life. He was a very friendly person with a compassionate heart. He always thought of others before himself. He was a comical person; he knew how to turn a frown upside down when he knew you were feeling down.
