In Memory of Lee "Lightfeather" Moquin

by Deveda Coburn

The Native American Indian was a 
great love of Lee's 

He spoke of the Indian Culture proud 
as he could be.
Lee belonged to the Blackfoot Tribe, 
which bought him fame.
"Lightfeather" was his given Indian name.
We learned a lot about the Indian way
Listening to what Lee had to say.
His Grandfather was a respected medicine man
And helped people across their land.
Lee lived on a reservation as a young boy.
Material things weren't a part of their life 
family and land
is what bought them joy.


 
I wish everyone could have seen Lee in his 
white leather
With his black hair, beads and feathers
He made you want to trace your heritage 
back to the days of old
And hope there was Native American Indian 
in your
background of stories untold.
Lee was a kind gentle man
Not afraid to show his feelings with a hug or
squeeze of the hand.
We thought we were special to him.  He 
had a knack
of making everyone feeling that way.


 
Always a smile and something nice to say
We'll sure miss Lee and the red truck 
with the Dirty foot sign
I am so glad Lee crossed my path in 
this life,
As he was a true friend of mine.
May the Spirit of your loved one find 
peace in the unknown land
May the Great Spirit be there to hold 
his hand.



 
The Leon Moquin Memorial Fund

Lee is a Blackfoot Indian.  Several years 
ago he began a lecture series to enlighten 
Americans to the history of our beautiful 
land and perhaps your own place in its story. 
This spring Lightfeather (that's Lee) 
passed from this earth.  His wife, Darlene, 
would like to continue his legacy through 
educating children of all ages (that's you 
too old timer) with the history that 
Lightfeather's lectures began.


   
They are promoted through the 
internet and other forms of media.  Funds are 
desperately needed to do this.   Donations are 
to be made  to the Leon Moquin Memorial Fund 
and mailed c/o Pemigewasset National Bank, 
PO Box 526, North Woodstock, NH 03262.  
Thank you in advance for your generosity and 
may the heavens above smile upon your good deed. 

With gratitude and grace,
