Dallas "Dally D" Joseph Boswell, age 47, of Bemidji, born on July 19, 1969, started his spiritual journey home on April 17, 2016. Dallas was so suddenly and tragically taken away from his family whom he loved and was very much loved the same in return.

Dallas was a line cook chef up until his head injury in April 21, 2007. He loved to cook for his family, do puzzles, watch movies, and play video games with his children, nieces and nephews. He was a very loving and kind husband to his wife of 22 years and an amazing father and grandfather to his children and grandson. He loved us with all of his heart and in the best way he could. He had a kind and beautiful heart and would not or could not hurt anyone; he loved and cared for everyone around him. That's what his family loved about him and are very distraught without him. He always put others first before himself. He loved to watch forensic files, sing, and dance with his grandson. He was very humorous and loved to laugh. There was no dull moment when he was around. He loved to tell stories and talk about his day and what he went through; he just loved to talk. He was very much misunderstood and people are so quick to judge him, they think they knew him by what they saw or heard, but they didn't know him. All he ever wanted was for his family to be happy and taken care of. That's why he had to do what he had to do to make sure that that was possible. He will be very much missed by lots of friends and family.

He leaves behind his wife, Leta Sailor, age 38, of Minneapolis, Minn., and four wonderful children. Daughter, Larissa Sailor; sons, Lawrence (Kaylee) Sailor, Lyndon Sailor, and Landrew Sailor; Grandson, Lawrenzo Sailor; Mother, Connie Boswell; Mother-in-law, Linda Sailor. All whom he adored very much. Along with his entire family; Brother-in-law, Leon Sailor; Brother-in-law, Louie Sailor Jr .; Louie's children, Lia, Louie III, and Loren; Sister-in-law, Elisa Sailor; Niece, Carol Sailor; Carol's children, Logan, Jaci, Zane, Elijah.

Those that welcome him home are his father, David Edward Johnson; brother, David Louis Boswell; and father-in-law, Louis Sailor Sr.

Casket Bearers will be Lawrence Sailor, Lyndon Sailor, Landrew Sailor, Leon Sailor, Louie Sailor, and Dennis Buckanaga. Honorary Bearers will be Dallas' grandson, Lawrenzo Sailor.

A wake will begin at 4:00 PM Thursday, April 21, 2016 at the Prescott Community Center, Cass Lake, and continue until 10:00 AM Friday April 23, 2016. Private family inurnment will be held at a later date.
