Shad "Dakota" Anderson (Kota Bear), age 14, of Burley, passed away Sunday, Aug. 8, 2010, near Lake Alturas from injuries sustained in an ATV accident.

Dakota was born Oct. 2, 1995, to Shad and Sheri Anderson in Burley, Idaho. Dakota was the youngest of two boys. He attended school in Burley from kindergarten through junior high. Dakota had a great love of life. He loved fishing, hunting, football and hanging out with his family and friends. But Dakota's first love was basketball. He played on a traveling basketball team through grade school and on the junior high team in seventh and eighth grade. Winning both the seventh- and eighth-grade Magic Valley Conference Championships was one of the biggest highlights of his life. Dakota touched the lives of everyone who crossed his path; whether it be with a funny joke or a big Kota bear hug, he always left you with a smile.

After the passing of Dakota's father, Sheri married Cory Jones and Dakota was blessed with a wonderful stepfather and brother, Chase, whom he loved dearly.

Dakota is survived by his parents, Cory and Sheri Jones; brothers, Stetson Anderson and Chase Jones; one niece, Jaycee Anderson; his grandparents, Joe Hitt, Doreen and Dan Lowder, and Carl and Brenda Anderson; great-grandparents, Doris Hitt, Melba Osterhout, and Gary and Mildred Fletcher; aunts and uncles, Amy (Adam) Peterson, Kalli (Marques) Winter, Jaci (JD) Borges, Afton Barkes and Randy (Christine) Anderson; and cousins, Sierra and Kylah Anderson, Sayre and Adalyn Peterson, Blaize and Kayne Winter, and Jadon, Jarett and Jenika Borges. He was preceded in death by his father, Shad Anderson; great-grandparents, Jim "Pud" Hitt, and Frank and Delsa Anderson; and his great-aunt, Jill Hitt.
