Alexander “Alexis” Henry Delormier
With heavy hearts, the family of Alexander (Alexis) Henry Delormier announces his peaceful passing on June 13, 2025, at his residence, surrounded by the love of his family and those closest to him. Alexis, as he was lovingly known, took his last breath in the comfort of his home, wrapped in the warmth of a life well-lived.
Born on December 2, 1948, at the family homestead on the east end of Kawehnoke, Alexis was the cherished son of the late Michael Delormier and the late Charlotte Thompson Delormier. A man of deep roots and strong values, Alexis built his life upon the foundation of hard work, family, and tradition.
On May 28, 1983, he married Janice Thompson in Massena, New York. Though their paths later parted, their bond gave life to a beautiful family that Alexis cherished above all.
A skilled craftsman, Alexis worked for many years at the old lacrosse factory on the west end of Kawehnoke. His hands helped shape countless traditional lacrosse sticks—carefully preparing hides and stringing each pocket with dedication and pride. His craftsmanship can still be seen and felt across Haudenosaunee Territory, a lasting testament to his skill and contribution to the game he loved. For his talents and hard work, he was inducted into the Akwesasne Lacrosse Hall of Fame on June 22, 2013.
Alexis is lovingly survived by his children: His girls, Tammy (Jimmy), Mickey (Francis), and his boy Alexander (Ali); his beloved grandchildren: Jimmy, Tanice, Jace, Talance, Alex Jr, Lexis, Aidyn, Avah, Ayana, Akaia, and Abel; his dear sister: Diane (Dave),his chosen children: Earl Delormier and Samatha Tigger Thompson, his nieces Kayloni, Victoria Beans (Jamie), his godchildren, Nicole, Karlee and Norman (Lil man), and his loving friend for many years, Chantale Moise.
