Eli's Paw Paw's and My Heart Continues to ache on a daily basis! Some days, it seems like more than we can bear! It is only through God's Grace and His Comfort, that we are able to go on from day to day! There are not adequate words from my Heart to express just how much we Miss Our Grandson!! He was such a Sweet, Loving, Caring and Thoughtful Grandson, and was Loved by everyone who knew him! All I ask of God, is to please help us to go on . . . . until we see him again one day!!! He ALWAYS showed his Love to me, his Nana, in so many, many ways!! I do not ever remember him saying one cross word to me! Oh, God, please help me with this!! Please!!! Eli, your Paw Paw and Love You and Miss You So Much, and You Remain in Our Hearts Each Day of Our Lives, and You, Our Dear Grandson, are never more than a thought away. You will remain in our Hearts Forever and ever, until we see your Sweet Face again one day!!! I Love You, Eli!!! My Love Always and Forever, Your Nana

It has been almost a full year now, since our amazing son was taken from us so early, and allowed to enter into the blessed and joyful presence of his Lord and Savior. We still ache to hold him...hear his voice...smell his hair...and see that incredible smile. This Guest Book will now be online forever, as a small memorial to my son's beautiful earthly life. Please continue to sign and post messages as you desire. Your comments, love, and precious words still continue to ease our sorrow. Thank you and God bless you...friends and family of Elijah.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the Tolbert family. Elijah was a great person and had a big heart. He always made me laugh and he was always there for me when I really needed someone. He was such a great person! I'll never forget the night he played his guitar for me. It seemed like something he really enjoyed. We always said that we would meet up and go to the beach. I know when I go, he will be there with me at heart. I thank God for letting me get to know him. He was a true blessing! I love you Elijah! I'll see you at home.

You have been rewarded with your heavenly wings. The memories of you will live on through you family, friends, and the lives you helped save. Rest in peace precious angel rest in peace.

Elijah impacted everyone's lives in a positive way and even though he only worked with me at Carmike for 4 months, those are four months I am never going to forget and neither is anyone else that had the privledge to work with him. His passing has left not only Carmike but the entire community in shock and everyone is going to miss you so very much Elijah. My condolences go out to your family and other close friends. Love you bro. Philippians 4:13

All of my prayers continue to go out to the family. I worked with Elijah at the theater, and losing him hit all of us very hard. He was such a wonderful kid who lit up the room whenever he walked in and always made a bad day turn good. He would put a smile on everybody's face. I hope that we can all strive to be more like him. We will all miss him. We love you Eli.
