Wallis Joan Blount

Wallis Joan Blount


Wallis Joan Fourstar Blount, “Eagle Feather Woman,” “Wave the Feather Woman,” 83, died Saturday, May 15, 2021. She was born April 14, 1938, to Wallace Fourstar and Evaline Dawson Archdale. She grew up in the Oswego area before going to boarding school in South Dakota. She returned to help care for her siblings and attended school in Frazer, eventually getting her G.E.D. She was employed at the production department at the A& S Industries in Poplar during the late ‘70s and later worked at the Frazer Recreation Hall, but her true calling was raising her family. She met Dennis Blount and they were married Sept. 10, 1955, in Wolf Point. Together they had three daughters, Nadine, Sandra and Denise. They later became foster parents to many children in need and grandparents to nine. She was her girls’ number one fan, supporting them at their many sporting events, school and church activities. She and Dennis were very proud to be involved with many Frazer community events for many years, including the Red Bottom Celebration, the Fourth of July Committee and Cansuska Presbyterian Church. She enjoyed running the Sunday school program and ladies’ aid. She was quite the seamstress and spent much of her time making star quilts, clothing, wall hangings, bingo bags and everything in between. She always kept her hands busy with various craft projects and her puzzle books. She enjoyed sitting outside, reading her favorite western books and her daily newspapers. She loved to travel and looked forward to her adventures with her sister, Julia, and often reminisced of her many trips “down south.” She was always busy and always willing to help, whether it be running bingo fundraisers three times a week with Dennis, cooking and baking for ceremonies, feeds and birthdays, making star quilts for giveaways or simply helping with her grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, Dennis Blount; brothers, Robert Fourstar, Oliver Archdale, Ivan Archdale and Donovan Shields; sister, Leta Firemoon; infant brothers and sisters, Milton Fourstar, Angeline Fourstar, Sheldon Archdale and Jon Archdale; and granddaughters, Jennifer Rose Windy Boy and Ruby Jewel White Eagle. She is survived by her daughters, Nadine DeCoteau, Sandra White Eagle and Denise Blount Windy Boy Garfield; sister, Julia Farrar; brother, Kenneth Ryan; and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. A funeral service was held Wednesday, May 19, at the Cansuska Presbyterian Church in Frazer. Burial was next to her husband, Dennis, at the Oswego Presbyterian Cemetery.
