Stanley Big Plume is the eldest of his nine siblings and has always been a gentle friend to so many whom he treats like his own family. Stanley takes pride in his Dene and Blackfoot heritage and practices gratitude and love for his Nation, family and Elders whom he holds dear. Stan loves to travel with his wife, Sharlene, his children and his beloved dogs. Nothing makes him more proud than working for the people and celebrating our rich culture and language.
