Delvin Cree was born to Louella Herman and Henry Cree Sr., on January 26, 1963. Delvin lived in Minneapolis for 20 years where he ran a small business and spent a majority of his career working with buildings and building properties. He took that skill and moved to New Town, North Dakota, where he ran a small woodworking business.
