David Bradley Flaten, age 69, passed away unexpectedly and went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Monday, July 6, 2026. Dave was born to Clinton and Cora (Stensland) Flaten as the youngest of seven children on Feb. 7, 1957, in Wolf Point, Mont. He attended Turner School in the Prairie Elk community, southwest of Wolf Point until seventh grade when he began attending school in Wolf Point. He graduated from Wolf Point High School in 1975. Dave married his high school sweetheart, Pam (Deneault) Flaten, on Nov. 16, 1974, and they have been happily married for over 51 years. Dave and Pam moved to Glasgow in the summer of 1988 where they continued raising their four boys: Jason, Brady, Brenner and Cade. Farming was life for the Flaten family. As his father Clinton’s health began to deteriorate with the onset of Alzheimer’s disease, Dave stepped in and took over the reins of the Flaten Ranch right out of high school. He continued with cattle operations until 1986, but his true agricultural love was wheat farming — a job that he stayed faithful to for 48 consecutive years before parking his combine one final time after the 2023 harvest season. Dave began a side-career as a contracted mower in the summer of 1998, a commitment that he would continue for 29 years. What began with a six-year run with the Corps of Engineers in Fort Peck blossomed into a 25year successful partnership with the St. Marie Condo Association — a job that he continued until his death. Mowing was not really a job to Dave, because he enjoyed every bit of it. Dave was a standout wrestler for the Wolf Point Wolves, finishing second place in Class A at 98 pounds in 1973. He turned that success into over 20 years as a well-respected wrestling coach. He helped lead the Wolf Point Wrestling Club from 1982 to 1988. He then took over the head coaching role with the Glasgow Wrestling Club, immediately upon arrival and held the position for 10 years (1989-1998). He shaped the lives of countless young boys, both on and off the mat, and left a lasting legacy as a true pillar of the sport. Over the last four years, Dave had seen his faith grow in extraordinary ways. He found his spiritual footing with the Glasgow Assembly of God Church and he became very connected to

Percy Jerome “Butch” Bear, 83, of Wolf Point died June 28, 2026, at Faith Home in Wolf Point. Born on May 7, 1943, in Poplar, he was the son of Susan Archdale Bear Warrior and John “Johnny” Bear. He was the first grandchild of James “Jim” Archdale and Rose Fighter Archdale. His grandparents welcomed him with immeasurable love after the heartbreaking loss of their son, Percy, who was killed while serving in the South Pacific during World War II, 18 months before Butch was born. Shortly afterward, his cousin Anita was born and the two were raised side by side. Together with Linda, Carol, Kathleen Red Thunder, Judy, Suzanne, and Feryl Greufe, they shared a childhood filled with family, laughter and lasting memories. As the only boy in his family, he was known as a tough and determined young man, but those who truly knew him also knew the gentle, compassionate heart beneath his rugged exterior. As the years passed, his kindness, generosity and unwavering love for his family became the qualities that defined him most. He graduated from Poplar High School in 1962. Soon after graduation, he enlisted in the United States Army. While serving in Vietnam, he was wounded by shrapnel while laying mines. Later, while stationed in Korea, he was wounded a second time after a lightning strike caused an explosion that took the life of a fellow soldier nearby. For his bravery and sacrifice, he was awarded two Purple
