Devin enjoyed his job at S & K Truck Wash & Repair where he worked with Steve & Casey Fousek for 4 and a half years. There Devin made a lot of close friends that became like brothers to him, Shadoe, Derek, & Colton.

Devin was always happy and respectful with a big smile and had a calming personality. Devin had a great love for horses and genuinely loved riding horses. He participated in the 1862 Memorial Horse Ride annually in Santee, Nebraska to honor his ancestors.  Devin enjoyed his hunting and fishing trips with his Papa Big Bob and grandpa Jerry Trudell.  Devin loved to play basketball and loved competing at Lakota Nation Invitational while attending Red Cloud.  Devin also ran X-Country for Red Cloud and made it to State in 2011.  He received a scholarship to Dickenson State University in Dickenson, North Dakota for X-Country.

Devin was a die hard Chicago Bulls fan that loved to play 2K on the X-Box with his family & friends. When he was a child, he would play "Ditch and Hide" with his cousins who all looked up to him as a big brother. He was an avid Cribbage card player that enjoyed "kicking" everyone who wanted to play him.

Audrina Skye was Devins whole world. Devin worked hard to give her the world. He loved their long walks at the Wagner Lake with their German Shepherds Zoe and Jack. He made sure to attend all of her school functions and activities. He read to her every night before bed and made sure to watch her favorite you-tube videos. He began teaching her to ride horse as they both loved riding horses.
