Obituary Lee Eugene White, Sr., age 47, of Bemidji, Minnesota journeyed to the spirit world on Sunday, August 2nd, 2020 from Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis, MN. He was born on December 11th, 1972 in St. Paul, MN, the son of Carol Jean (Hart) and Walter Peter White, Jr. Fighting Spirit once it lays down to let its vessel rest, the spirit looks for the light to set on its journey. He fought to stay alive for a week before his spirit rose to set on his journey to look for the light. 3 days and 3 nights the fire burns to guide his spirit. If that fire does not burn for 3 days and 3 nights, the spirit gets lost. As we sit and mourn, as the spirit moves on, at least we can feel the blood and heat of his heart. In our minds are happy memories and sad memories, but his memories will be with us and our loved ones always, as we will never forget the love and support of one big native. We will always love our culture because we are the first people that roamed this planet. Aho! Miigwech for the love that you gave.
