Dakota was truly happiest while camping and hiking in the mountains with his dog Bailey by his side. He enjoyed using his creativity to create intricate chainmail, swords, jewelry and other gifts. Dakota had the greatest imagination that was expressed very passionately through his writings; he was truly an artist. We will never know what may have been, what contributions Dakota may have made in the future. Where his amazing creativity of mind may have brought him or what his depth of thought may have contributed further to our lives. I know our lives were truly enriched with the time we had with him. Our family would like to express our gratitude for all of the support, kind words and love we’ve received from family and friends.

Dakota, may your spirit be at peace. You will be missed, but never forgotten and forever in our memories.
