Aaron Michael Little Bald Eagle was born on July 24, 1979. He was born in Yankton, South Dakota to Kareen Bernice Gilbert Little Bald Eagle and Joe Little Bald Eagle. He was the 6th of a large and loving family. He grew up in Buffalo, Wyoming where his passion for the outdoors, especially the Bighorn Mountains was fueled and his hard work ethic was instilled. Aaron enjoyed fishing, camping, music, a good game of poker, and most of all, being one of the kids. Saturday mornings Aaron would be found on the couch waiting for Brynleigh to wake up and join him for Saturday morning cartoons. Aaron was proud to share his mom's stuffing and chicken divan dishes at holiday dinners. He was always ready for the dinners to finish up so he could sweep the poker table. When the kids wanted to play outside, he would be the first one throwing the football or the last one reeling in his line. Aaron was a talented construction worker and loved working for Barnum construction operating heavy machinery. He would often send Snapchats to his family in his hard hat, with a big grin, operating scrapers and excavators. He loved getting together with his childhood buddies, always picking up right where they left off like time had never passed. Aaron was an adventurer and wouldn't turn down an opportunity to try something new, he even threw his hand at bull riding. Aaron was a proud member of the Lakota Sioux Tribe. He completed the Native American Enhancement Program with the Volunteers of America Northern Rockies where he achieved house leader. He had a hunger for his culture and felt passionately about being with Mother Nature living a balanced life with peace and harmony.
Aaron is survived by his daughter Brynleigh; significant other Jessica Penticoff; sisters, Loretta Young, Brenda Caro, Lynette (Bob) Fox, Lacy Little Bald Eagle (Joe Painter); brothers, Monte (Delores) Young, Ronnie (Lorie) Young; and his own tribe of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and great nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his mother and father and one daughter; Arianna Kareen.
