Harvey Dean Red Eagle, age 39, went home to be with the Lord on August 20, 2008 at the Billings Deaconess Hospital after a long illness.  Harvey passed away at 7:20 p.m. with his parents, Elmer Sterling Red Eagle, Sr. and DeLoris Kirn Red Eagle at his side.
        Harvey was born December 13, 1968 to Elmer Sterling and DeLoris Kirn Red Eagle at the Poplar Community Hospital in Poplar, MT.  Harvey attended schools in Poplar and Flandreau, SD.  He also attended the Job Corps in the Black Hills by Rapid City, SD.  He later went to the Job Corps in the State of Utah where he earned his certificate in auto mechanics which he specialized in.  He lived in Poplar where he worked at various jobs throughout his life, but most of all he enjoyed working on cars and making them run.  He liked spending time with friends, telling stories and just laughing and having a good time. 
        Harvey met Eva Crowe, his longtime mate, and from this they had three children:  Teddy, Deanna and Francis, by whom he is survived.  He is also survived by his parents, Elmer Sterling and DeLoris Kirn Red Eagle; his brothers, Elmer S. Red Eagle, Jr. of Coloman, FL, Jerome P. Red Eagle of Denver, CO, and legally adopted brother, Paul D. Merri Lee Belt Red Eagle of Poplar; sisters, La Wanda D. “Dan” Jeffery of Rapid City, SD, Mayme Ida Red Eagle (Kenneth Ayers) of Poplar.

        Harvey will be greatly missed by his nieces and nephews, Tiffany, Brittany, Alicia, Jasmine, Aaron, Lil’ Darrell, Duran, Marcus and Christopher.  Harvey also had a longtime companion, Tanya GreyBear, who preceded him in death.  They were together through thick and thin.  On both Maternal, Dora Youngman-Yellowowl and Jim Yellowowl, and Paternal, Elmer Red Eagle and Mary Small Red Eagle, there are too numerous of relatives to mention.  Harvey loved and cared about every one.  He was a very giving person and would go out of his way to make everyone he cared about happy.  He will be missed by all.
