Welcome the New Lion of Idaho.
From a broken Montana home to Washington’s marble halls, his journey defies every expectation.
Denny LaVé’s story is proof that faith and grit can turn hardship into hope.
In Blue-Collar Blessed: A Humble Life in Idaho, Denny shares how setbacks—from failing college to collapsing during Marine boot camp—never broke his resolve. His path wound through a thousand-year-old monastery in France, the founding of a multi-million-dollar construction company, raising six sons, and confronting trauma head-on.
Now, he steps forward not out of entitlement, but out of service—driven by humility, purpose, and the belief that ordinary Americans can make extraordinary differences.
