"JOEY ENGLISH"
12X12X.5 INCHES | 1/4" MODERN BIRCH FRAME

Joey Tiiah Patricia English, 25, was a mother of three and a member of the Piikani Nation, a community in the Blackfoot Confederacy of southern Alberta. Her family describes her as compassionate and always laughing. Reported missing on June 9, 2016, by family, parts of her body were found in a grassy area of Calgary two days later. The Calgary Police Service told CBC News they believe English’s death was not a homicide, but Joshua Jordan Weise, 40, of Calgary, has been charged with offering an indignity to human remains. He was granted bail in early July.
