Takala attended Cardston school throughout her schooling. Takala had a great passion for horses and also long distance running, a passion that she shared with her brother Montana. Takala was given the Blackfoot name Apookaasii “long distance runner.” Takala shared a special bond with her brother “Monte” and they would trade t-shirts and wear them when they weren’t together. They also finished each other’s sentences. Takala showed her kindness and love through her smile, which will be forever missed by all who knew her.
