At age 3 months he began to live with his second “Ina” Mother, Ernestine Antelope off and on. He attended Little Eagle Head Start then later attended Little Eagle Day School. At the age of 8, Nephi started to enjoy time with his brothers. His “Ina” mother Audrey resided in White Horse, SD and he would follow his brothers in many adventures there. He had a love for horses so they often would go riding horse. It was like they were their own wolf pack sharing an unbreakable bond. He loved all his family & especially his wolf pups. When he had time you would catch him sitting with his uncles Charles Antelope & Myron Fast Horse. Learning from them & sharing laughter.
