Luther was a veteran in the U.S. Army. He passed away peacefully with his loving family by his side at 3:50 AM on June 1, 2016 at the Rapid City Regional Hospital in Rapid City, SD.
Luther was born on April 13, 1956 at home at American Horse Creek to Bernard & Dorene (No Neck) One Horn-Kills In Water. He was delivered by his grandmother, Lucy Kills In Water.
Luther enlisted in the United States Army on September 27, 1974 and was stationed in Fort Jackson, SC. From there, he was sent to the Panama Canal during the Vietnam Era. Luther was honorably discharged from the United States Army on September 26, 1980. After his service in the military, he came home and worked at the Moccasin Factory, did construction and carpentry work, and also served as an ambulance driver, jailer, lay reader and police officer. Most recently, Luther went to work for the H.I.P. Program and retired from his position when he first became ill.
When Luther was younger, he liked to play baseball and volleyball, go horseback riding and fishing, and race his sports car at 3-mile creek. Luther met the love of his life, Delphine (Long Soldier) One Horn, who was always by his side during illness and final moments of his life. He will be greatly missed by his wife, family, and all who knew him.
