I’m still wrapping my head around this…

I met Eli back in March working at AMC. I remember him being one of the first to talk to me. He always made me laugh and smile no matter how we were both feeling. Always told me crazy stories and picked on how small and skinny I am. There was never a bad or dull moment with him. Rest easy King! 🕊️

Prayers and love to family and friends ❤️

My condolences to Elijah's family. I was very heartbroken when I heard the news of his passing..💔

I first met Elijah when we were hired around the same time at Amazon last October.  Even though we only worked a few months together before he left to embark on a new work adventure; he still left a lasting impression on me. I remembered him towering over me (5 ft and 1 in), his 6 foot something tall, and lanky figure. He was known for cracking jokes and making people laugh. He was just a friendly type of person. He and I had plenty of conversations while at work.  The one person he spoke mostly about was his momma. He always cared about what she thought of him. I remembered  when he received his last traffic ticket(s), he was more worried of what his momma was going to say or do rather!😂 He was trying to find a way to resolve the traffic tickets without his momma knowing. Little did he know, he said she already knew! He had a close relationship with his momma from what I gathered whenever he spoke of her.

 Eli was just a great kid who was trying to find his way. I am saddened that I am now having to write about his memories of the past instead of congratulations for his future success.. Reflecting on this moment causes me to be reminded that we are not promised to live a full life. All we have is right now.  I know that people may come in our lives for a short season. I’m just glad our paths crossed for that short time. He was such a sweet soul.  My thoughts and prayers are with his family and to those who are affected by this great loss. Rest easy my friend until I see you again…..
