Elliot was a vibrant, energetic and loving child who adored life and family. He loved playing sports and could steal your heart with his million dollar smile! Despite his devastating ordeal and special needs, Elliot was a true courageous warrior! After nearly 14 years of battling the devastating effects of acute disseminated encephalitis, Elliot has succumbed to the disease. It was a hell of a fight and he is a true champion in the purest sense. He will be missed more than words can describe. He made his parents proud on a daily basis and was a true inspiration to anyone who ever met him. We celebrate the love, peace and grace that his spirit bestowed on our lives! Elliot is now free of hoses and wheelchairs and is now dancing in heaven. He's finally free of the body that imprisoned him for so many years.

The family kindly requests donations in lieu of flowers for Elliot's memorial services and outstanding medical bills.

Thank you all for your support, prayers and well wishes over the years!
