We've decided to start a fundraiser on behalf our family mourning the loss of our beautiful Dakota.

Our intention is to help Emily, Braden and family in this absolutely horrific time to give Dakota the celebration of life, he most truly deserves.

Dakota had an enormous heart, full of compassion and kindness, always the first to give somebody the benefit of the doubt. Had an extremely trusting nature, who touched the hearts of all who met him.

Tuesday the 27th of February, 2024, changed our lives forever.

Dakota was taken way too soon at the young age of 23, in a cowardly act of violence that you wouldn’t wish upon your worst enemy. Completely robbed of his right to grow old and grey alongside his two brothers and become the man he dreamed to be.

While we are all aching and struggling to comprehend such an incomprehensible loss, reaching out with even something small to alleviate the load that our family are trying to bear will go a long way to our long journey ahead of grieving our sweet boy.

All we have now are memories, memories that will last a lifetime. Fly high Koda, until we meet again ❤️
