Dale “Dub” Wayne LongTree, age 47, entered this world on March 25, 1973 and passed away on January 30th 2021 at Billings Clinic after a long illness. Although his body was tired, he was full of grateful appreciation for every second here on earth. He lived on his terms and was happy to leave when the Creator called him home.
He worked at the Cottonwood Inn for many years of his life, he loved watching and playing basketball, fishing at the lake, playing pool and darts. He loved spending his days with his daughter, Chassidy Faith, who was his whole world. His proudest moments were those spent with his family and some of the happiest times in his life were spent with his dart league family, Northern Lights. There was never a dull moment with him, he could always bring a chuckle even to moments of extreme seriousness. Up until the end his sense of humor and positive outlook remained with him.
Dub is survived by his mother, Myra LongTree; daughter, Chassidy LongTree; sister, Denelda (Travis) Roll of Billings; Uncle, Gordon LongTree; Aunt Maggie “G” LongTree; two nephews, Kylen Roll & Jayson LongTree-Compher; his niece; Harper Roll who shined bright in his life; LongSpecial cousins, Cheyenne Limberhand and Jennifer (Frank) Limberhand. He is also survived by numerous other aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews.
He is preceded in death by his 2 grandmothers, Esther Melbourne and Jeanette Smith, Uncle Dale LongTree, and Aunt Eugenia Jackson.
Dub’s last gift to the world was giving sight to two blind people.

We had our differences but all in all, Dub was a decent human being. Haven’t seen him in a while. Saddened to hear of his passing.
Jerry Pugh says
Although I haven’t seen Dub, or Walter as I knew him, in many many years, the news of his passing is hard to hear. I have a lot of great memories of us bombing around as kids, growing up on the south side. Watching wrestling and trying moves out on each other was a favorite, no matter how painful. He was a master of the figure four leg lock. We had a ton of fun, and I will always look back with fondness at the times we shared.
Myra, Denelda, Chassidy, Gordon, Maggie, Cheyenne, Jennifer, and the rest of the family; I’m so sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
