Felix made many friends throughout his life. He worked many jobs over the years until his retirement in 2018. He enjoyed his days sitting on his deck, watching all his great-great-grandchildren play and visiting with family and friends. He loved going for drives around the lake, attending powwows and doing yard work. Felix enjoyed telling many of his stories about growing up and working. He was a very kindhearted man who will forever hold a special place in all the hearts of everyone who knew him.
