Dallas was born on February 25, 2010, in Olney, Illinois, the son of Bobbie Jo Stover and Jason Burke. He attended Richland County Middle School and was a member of Bible Fellowship Church in Olney, Illinois. He enjoyed all things “boy”, fishing, riding his dirt bikes, playing video games, metal detecting, mushroom hunting, hanging out with Uncle Mike. He was the life of party.

Dallas was a very kind, fun, loving, outgoing kid that would help anyone who needed it, especially the elderly. He was the best big brother ever. He loved pestering his brothers just to get them going and mom’s nerves riled up. He loved teaching his brothers new tricks and how to play all the sports he was into. He would call us all bro/bruh/bra- always a jokester. A mamaw’s boy. Just an all-around great kid that always kept everyone on their toes.
