Sheyenne Dee Ell was born February 20, 1996, in Bismarck, ND to Scott Ell and Ina Plante.
Sheyenne grew up in fort yates where she attended Standing Rock High School and graduated class of 2014. She continued her education at Sitting Bull College for Business administration and graduated with her two-year and continued to finish college in 2021 with her Bachelor of Science Business Administration degree. She also did her internship under the supervision of Glen Philbeck where she got her certificate to be a tax preparer. Sheyenne enjoyed that very much.

In 2012 Sheyenne welcomed her first son Xavier Hendrix into this world. She enjoyed being a mother, she was attentive and gentle, very loving, her motherly instincts came naturally.  Later, she welcomed two more baby boys, August Feather and Dariyus Rai. Her boys were her pride and joy. She enjoyed cooking for them and taking them on walks. When she talked about her children it was like her eyes glistened and she lit up with such pure joy. She was a boy mom.

In 2022 Sheyenne moved to Bismarck and started working at Mcdonalds. She enjoyed that job because she got to work with her sister and had a smile the customers loved. She also worked off and on as a housekeeper where she was a houseman. She thought that was such a funny title for an employee. She made a lot of friends during her employment in Bismarck. Sheyenne was the most genuine and most selfless person you could come across.  If she wasn't a mom, she would be working or lending a hand to her sister by babysitting. She loved listening to music and catching up with her friends. Sheyenne not only loved her boys, but she had a special relationship with her nieces and nephews. She was big on family and thought the world of everyone that was lucky enough to know her. If you knew Sheyenne, you were her family.
