Randy Powless, AKA Saawin DeBoy AKA Dekuss, 67, of Seymour, passed away Tuesday, February 25, 2025. He was born June 23, 1957, in Milwaukee to the late Myron A. Burns Sr. and the late Eleanore (Powless) Ellis.

Randy was a man who enjoyed his time outdoors hunting and fishing. He spent countless hours collecting eagle feathers on Lake Superior and he knew the Bad River like the back of his hand. He was a member of the Bad River Tribe of the Ojibwe as well as a member of the Oneida Nation. Randy took great pride in his 2023 Anniversary Edition Harley Davidson motorcycle, which he kept spotless. He cherished going on road trips with Chrissy and delighted in hearing his favorite Motown singers through the speakers as they hit the road. Randy had an incredibly strong work ethic and always got things done. He even put in new flooring at home, a gift he lovingly gave to Chrissy. Above all else, Randy was also a dedicated father who loved spending time with his family. He will be deeply missed by all that knew him.

Randy is survived by the love of his life, Chrissy; son, Saawin Powless; grandson, Wakiza Powless; stepchildren, Kathryn (Jamie) Burks, Kelly (Frank) LaRoque, Michael LaRoque; 11 grandchildren; siblings, Bill (Hiedi-Beth) Burns Sr., Myron A. Burns Jr., Christina (Bob) Ante, Etta Burns; he is further survived by his auntie, Babe, as well as many nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.
