His greatest endeavor is his present project, the opening of Keeway (Giiwe) Wellness Centre with his wife Debra Lynn Thorne. Keeway in Ojibwe stands for “to come home or return to”. He and his wife have found this a very fitting name since the centre is located in the main floor of their heritage house in Erickson, Manitoba. The Keeway Wellness Centre is their home base where they apply all that they have learned. Come and visit us some time!
