Bonita Faye Littleghost, the daughter of Francis and Helena Littleghost grew up on the Spirit Lake Nation. She went to school at St. Michael’s Little Flower School.

She moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1983 and continued her education, earning her GED. She worked as a CNA in Minneapolis for about 30 years. She was forced to retire due to health issues.

While Bonita was living in the cities, she had five children: Nolan, Michael, Gerry Jr., Anthony and Rose.

Her favorite activities included walking to the lakes, playing Bingo and slots at the Mystic Lake Casino, playing softball and having picnics with her kids and family. Bonita always made time to come back home to Spirit Lake to visit family. We are very sad to say Bonita didn’t get to go back home to Minneapolis one last time.

Our precious Bonita will be greatly missed, forever loved, and always in our hearts.

Bonita is survived by her loving family. Her children Nolan Griffin, Michael Littleghost Sr., Gerald Griffin Jr., Anthony San Miguel, Rose San Miguel; grandchildren Mizaya Jones, Sky Jones, Adrian Jones, Wakinyin Medicine Stone, Samiya Medicine Stone, Olivia Medicine Stone, Jayce Curley, Cassidy Curley, Memphis San Miguel, and Tylie San Miguel; mother Helena Littleghost; brothers Richard Littleghost and Mark Littleghost; sisters Roberta Littleghost, Renita Shaw, Marva Tollefson, Marilyn Littleghost and Johanna Hunt; many nieces and nephews.
