Jeremy Keiser “Amáȟbiya Hokšína” (Cloud Boy) was born in Wolf Point, MT on September 22, 1980 to Jody Fern Howard and Wilbur Fred Keiser. He grew up in Frazer, MT where he was raised by his great grandparents Wilson and Josephine Jackson who he never stopped loving. They made such an impact on his life and he talked about them both even years after their passing.
Our great grandfather gave him the nickname Shadow because he would follow him everywhere like a shadow, he was also known as Drake and Keiz. Jeremy was an all-star baseball player in his youth. He had the fastest pitch in the league! Any player that swung against him, he struck out! No one could hit the ball when he was pitching for the Wolf Point and Glasgow leagues. All of his teammates looked up to him and admired him, as he was an amazing baseball player and leader. He was also a wonderful basketball player and football player, he excelled at everything he participated in. He would even box when he could to show off his talent. In his high school days, you could always find him with his best cousins Dallas Howard III aka baby Dal, Landyn Ackerman and Shawn Blount, to challenge basketball games or cruise around for chicks. Throughout the years hunting was his passion. Jeremy never passed up a hunting trip with his father, brothers, his uncles, his cousins or his friends. He would always be seen riding around with his best friend Travis Long, his favorite cousin Jason Clampitt or his uncle Dooley.
Jeremy worked numerous jobs, including auto mechanics, in Great Falls, MT, Minot, ND and Billings, MT before moving back home to Frazer, MT. After moving back to Frazer he later met Stevie McClammy whom he had baby Adaline with, they later separated but remained friends. He spent his last years with Alexis “Lexi” Bigleggins at his special aunt/mother Brandy Long’s home.
Jeremy will be remembered for his sense of humor, strength and his smile, he always had your back, family or friend. But most of all he will be remembered for the love he had for his three angels, Jessica, Marjorie and his “Mini Me” Adaline.
