Eli Joy Memorial Fund

Life has been forever changed with the passing of Eli Joy.  He will be remembered for his big goofy smile that he wore everyday while living his life to the fullest.  He loved deeply and made every person in his life feel special.  He showed us that love with his big hugs, kind words and genuine personality.  
He was a wonderful friend, brother and son but his true calling in life was being a father.  He loved Sophia (his princess) and Ezra (his best friend) more than anything in the world.  They are his pride and joy and all he ever wanted in this life was for them to be happy.   
Many people have reached out asking how they can help during this difficult time.  Though the arrangements have been covered, anyone that knows Eli  would know that Eli would say "take care of my kids".   Donated funds will be used to pay for immediate expenses for the kids.   In addition, his sister Lacey Joy will establish a memorial account to be used for his kids future.  
A celebration of life will be held at a later date when it is acceptable to gather the number of people impacted by Eli's infectious, bigger than life personality.
