Blair Echo Eagle Boy was born on December 13, 2015 at Sanford Hospital in Bismarck, ND to Blaine Eagle Boy and Brandi Flying Horse. Due to heart issues Blair spent the majority of her life at St. Mary's Hospital in Rochester, MN. Her family was grateful to be able to have her home for a week with them. Blair proved to be a fighter through her illness and showed everyone how she was one tough little girl.
Some of Blair's joys in life were when her dad rubbed her hands and combed her hair. Also when she got to yell at him. She enjoyed her mobile and music box, sticking her tongue out, sucking on her nook or bottom lip, getting held by her parents and going for walks in the wagon.
Blair is survived by her parents, Blaine Eagle Boy and Brandi Flying Horse of Cannonball, sister, Karen Joy, grandmother, Georgetta Fourth, and grandfathers, Melvin Flying Horse and Isadore Eagle Boy, and numerous grandparents, aunties and uncles.
Preceding Blair in death are grandmothers, Leta White Lightning and Arvella "Hubba" Fourth and many grandparents, aunties and uncles too numerous to mention.
