I knew Eli for only a short time, but during that time we became good friends. Eli was a joy to have around, and his presence was always accompanied by laughter and smiles. He was one of the most creative, sincere, and kind hearted young men I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. My prayers and thoughts are with his family. He will be truly missed.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to my cousin, Ellis and his family for the loss of Eli. I wasn't really around him much as I live in Texas, but when I was he was just the sweetest young man you can imagine, and always smiling and laughing. Wish I could be there to give ALL the Tritch's a hug. Love, Kim
