Not sure what to say?

Elijah was an amazing guy. I remember the first day we hung out and you told me a little about your life. We went to Guitar center and had a blast! The first time I heard you play violin, it touched my heart. You are such a talented guy with a good sense of humor. You made me cuffs which I lost them in the move, I move quite a lot. I wish I had them but I dont need them to keep you in my heart. You taught me PLUR..Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect. Youll forever be in my heart. Rest easy love

Carolina and Fausto, I'm just now finding out about this news. I am so incredibly saddened to hear of the passing of your beautiful son. I just saw his videos on youtube and it's impossible not to cry watching them. What a luminous soul. May you find comfort in the memories he left behind. Rest in peace, sweet child.

My sincere condolences for the loss of a very dear friend. Elijah, I miss you ever so greatly and am glad our paths crossed. You taught me to embrace my unique flair and accepted me for who I was. I will always love you as one of my star children and forever keep you in my heart. Continue shinning you amazing, talented star. You live on in my mind and the minds of the others who love you as well.
Sincerely,
K.Cat

I light my own candle. A silly night light but the stars glow on the ceiling and I look up and think of you. I love you. I miss you. You were different, thank you. I'm sorry. I miss you. I'm lucky for the part that you had in my life.

little sunshine- you were such a gift. Being around you and your mama showed me how to be a parent. I will never forget what a presence you were in Andrew and I's lives.

Lsm for life
