Obituary

(Due to Covid-19 concerns, all who attend the Funeral Service are REQUIRED to wear a face mask and practice social distancing) 

 

Elyja was sweet, funny, silly and had the best personality. He had a heart of gold, and the loyalty of a lion. He was always there when someone needed him even if it was for the smallest things. He would always lend a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen to (but only if you yelled because he was partially deaf, but he was always still there). He had the biggest smile and the brightest future. He loved everyone he came in contact with. He made you laugh even if you didn’t want to. He was kind, oh he was so so kind. He spread kindness throughout the world, and we will miss him so so much.
