Marion Wallace RunsThrough, Sr. left for the happy hunting grounds on Jan. 12, 2023 in Poplar, MT. He was born on March 8, 1957 to ruby and Wallace RunsThrough, Sr.
He was born and raised in Frazer, MT and was the 3 rd oldest of 11. He attended Frazer school from there he enlisted in the United States Army where he successfully completed basic training at Fort Leonard Wood Missouri in 1980, he was then deployed to Germany for the next 3 ½ years where he received his Honorable Discharge. He returned home, started working for A&S Industries in Poplar. During his years at A&S he met his babe, Millie Youpee in 1988 where he took and raised as his own Windy and Rocky Clark and together, they had Millie RunsThrough II and Marion RunsThrough, Jr. They made their home in Poplar, MT and continued to work at A&S until his back injury in 1996. He was unable to return to work, so he became a stay-at-home Dad. He taught all four of his kids most of his knowledge, hobbies from fixing things in the garage with him, to cooking and hunting, changing parts, oil, tires, patching. Everything he liked to do he was a good teacher and father to us. He also loved to be on YouTube channel messing with his tablet and TV, especially cruising with his wife and grandkids, he would get up around 5 am or 6, sit on the couch and fall back asleep till his other half would get up then it was time for their morning coffee and tea to start their day together. He loved spending time with his grandkids, especially Rock’C, his lil mouse or raccoon. She was always into something of his Dad has 8 grandbabies, 3 boys and 5 girls. He was always telling a story about his days in Frazer or hunting. When we all be driving around, he would spot a motorcycle and already know what it was to the engine size or what make and model. Every little memory and the times we had together, the love, laughs you gave us every day. No words can explain how much you meant to us. We will miss you Dad, until we meet again, love your RunsThrough, Necklace, Clark and Howard crew.
