Dakota was born in Calgary, Alberta on February 24, 1997. He was Laurie's miracle baby and left this world with his sister Clarissa English and boyfriend Kyle Devine on April 28, 2015 in Lethbridge, AB. Dakota leaves to mourn his loving mother, Laurie M. English-Winters (Kevin) and father Wesley (Jody) Crazy Bull.

Dakota was very athletic and played various sports such as soccer, baseball and hockey. He attended the hockey academies in Lethbridge and Calgary, AB. Dakota played hockey in Fort Macleod and was usually quite early for games because his cousin Robin was driving. Because Dakota loved the sport of hockey, he also was certified as a hockey ref at age 14. Dakota loved to spend time with family and friends and was looking forward to graduating this year from high school. Dakota's 18^th birthday was a huge celebration.

Dakota received an aquarium as a special gift and filling that aquarium, was his new friend Raphael; a turtle his sister Clarissa knew he would love. Dakota had an amazing work ethic for such a young man and was employed with West Co. at the age of thirteen. He was persistent at wanting to work and would often bug West Co., even though he was only 12. They finally gave in and hired him when he turned 13. Past employment included Pure-O-Clean and Lethbridge Iron Works where he gained both employment skills and everlasting friendships. Dakota enjoyed being the comedian of the family and usually was entertaining in some way or another. Playing poker with his grandma Wendy was a special time for him and he usually won.

Dakota was predeceased by great-grandfathers, Omer and Julius English, paternal grandparents; John and Stella, Leo and Lucy Crazy Bull, Minnie Mountain Horse and Jack Eagle Bear, Uncles; Charles and George English and Stanley Parenteau, Aunts; Faye English, Darlene Vielle, Marlene, Yvonne, Joanne and Jackie Crazy Bull and cousins; Tyler, Juliann and Luella English.
