Llewellyn James Eagle, 67, of Wolf Point died June 4, 2021, at the Billings Clinic. He was born in Poplar on June 24, 1953, to Geraldine Eagle, but was raised by his grandparents Frank and Mary Eagle.

In 1985, he was involved in a motor vehicle accident and later returned to Montana to be near his family.

In his younger years, he enjoyed giving mechanical advice and working on cars, digging turnips/roots, going fishing and cruising. He had the best cooking skills and was locally “famous” for his homemade salsa and chili. He had a crazy sense of humor and was always joking and laughing. Some of his favorite TV shows were Maury and Steve Wilkos. His favorite of all was watching Nascar races, football and basketball. Some of his favorite teams include the San Francisco 49ers, Oakland Raiders and, of course, the Philadelphia Eagles. He spent the last few years of his life sitting on the couch watching his pride and joy “Rosie” and his grandson LewAnthony playing outside. He is survived by his children, Joel C. Adams of Spokane, Wash., Cassandra “Sandy,” Llewellyn Jr. “BobaLew” and Lisa Marie Eagle of Wolf Point; and five grandchildren. He was preceded in death by siblings, Edna R.
