The Southern Ute Indian Tribe is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former Council Member, Vice Chairman, and beloved community member, Alex S. Cloud. 

Cloud was a dedicated tribal and community leader who made significant contributions to the Southern Ute Indian Tribe throughout his life. As a three-term Tribal Council member, Cloud also served the community for over 15 years as the head of the Recreation Department. Known for his passion for youth development, Cloud was a mentor and coach to countless young people. He instilled in them the importance of education and hard work, encouraging them to excel in both academics and athletics. 

Cloud’s legacy of service and dedication to the Southern Ute Indian Tribe will be remembered and cherished by the community. Our hearts and prayers are with the Cloud and Kent family and the community during this time.
