Karnell Ellington Obituary

Karnell Ellington

IN LOVING MEMORY

March 5th, 1988 To February 9th, 2022

Salt Lake City, UT—Karnell was born and raised in Salt Lake City, where he attended Highland High School. During his time at Highland, he was fortunate to meet life long friends, who helped encourage him in his pursuits in sports, where he always strived to be the best.

Karnells life was cut tragically short, in a tragic accident.

Our son Karnell is survived by his parents Nate and Barbara Ellington, his sister Kayla(Lance), and his brothers Kaston(Jessica), and Kam Ellington, as well as his Grandmother, many Aunts, Uncles, Nieces and Nephews.

He was loved dearly by those who knew him. We can't sum up his life in a few paragraphs, But his light and love will be missed deeply. We know that he is at peace in the here after. We would like to celebrate and remember him for the kind, funny spirit he was. He was admired for his hard working ethics, and took pride in everything he did. He always strived for perfection.

Until we meet again, we love you. Rest In Heaven! You will always be our "STATIK CHAIN"

Services will take place at The Calvary Baptist Church (1090 S State St. Salt Lake City) on Friday March 11th, 2022

Viewing from 11:00am-12:00pm Services from 12:00pm-1:00pm, Cemetery to proceed after.
