My condolences to your family.
I had Dakota in class at HL and remember him being a fun jokester that kept the class fun! Loved his smile!
I was also able to watch him wrestle many times and got to see him improve each year with his skills! He was an assest to the team in many ways! I remember him showing us many times how big his “guns” have become with his weight lifting!
God Bless!
