Elijah Garner Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Tom M. Wages Funeral Service - Lawrenceville on Jan. 3, 2026.
Elijah David Garner, age 5, of Lawrenceville, GA passed away Monday, December 29, 2025.
Elijah David Garner was born on June 20, 2020, to Daniel and Rebekah Garner. From the very beginning, Elijah brought joy, laughter, and a gentle brightness into every room he entered. Two years later, Elijah became a big brother when Asher was born, a role he carried with pride and tender love.
In his five years, Elijah filled his family's days with wonder, playful moments, and a smile that could lift even the hardest day. Elijah especially loved to worship, and from a very young age, encountered the presence of Jesus in His life.
We grieve Elijah's sudden passing, but we do not grieve without hope. Even in this loss, we stand with unwavering certainty that Jesus remains Lord. Our peace and comfort are found in Him, and we trust Elijah is safe in the presence of our Savior.
Elijah will be remembered for the joy he carried, the love he had for Jesus, the love he gave, and the light he leaves behind in all who knew him.
A Celebration of Life for Elijah David Garner will be held Sunday, January 4, 2026 at 6:00PM at New Life Atlanta, 3150 Old Atlanta Rd, Suwanee, GA 30024. Private Interment at East Shadowlawn Memorial Gardens.
