Elayarajas Funeral & Family Support

Donation protected
On December 29th, 2016, early morning the world lost a very special person.

Mr. Elayaraja Balasundaram who is a Candian PR hailed from Jolarpettai, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, India. He was in a truck accident on December 29th that resulted in a severe collision and head injury. He passed away on the spot due to the severity of that injury. At just 36 years old, this was a sudden and heartbreaking loss for his friends and family and anyone that’s ever come in contact with Elayaraja.

He was a passionate, hard-working and an inspirational single man who lived every day to the fullest. He was working as Chef at Original Joe’s where he was adored by his/her colleagues through culinary skills, he completed his Bachelors Degree in Hotel Management in Tamil Nadu. Aside from being head chef, he had a passion of becoming a Truck Driver, he was very happy when his dream came true. Mr. Elayaraja spent most of his time participating in many MARATHONS around Canada. Not a second of his day was wasted and every minute was truly treasured. His personality was already something to be admired.

We’ve created this GoFundMe fundraiser to help his body to reach his family in India for the final rites, funeral costs and the unexpected expenses that come with a sudden loss like this. Any excess money will be donated to the family back home, he is survived by his widowed mother, elder brother & two younger sisters. 

As his family & friends, we sincerely appreciate your love and support. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
