Help with final expenses for Elijah Salazar

Donation protected
Elijah was born February 18, 2006 to Moises and Sarah.   He had 15 wonderful years on this earth, blessing those around him with his smile and kind heart.  On Friday, March 27, 2021, Elijah was struck by a vehicle while taking a trip to the convenience store near his home in Daytona Beach, FL.  He was skateboarding when he was struck by the vehicle and fractured his skull.  After being transferred to Children's Hospital in Orlando, FL, his brain could not take the swelling any longer and he passed away.  

Elijah loved to watch anime, play video games, listen to music, and skateboard.  He was the oldest of four children.  He has 2 brothers, Aaron and Jerimiah, and 1 sister, Sarah.  He is survived by parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and several cousins.  His best friend also happened to be a cousin of his, Dylan.  They talked for countless hours and had grand plans for the future.  Elijah wanted to be a psychologist to help others.

His parents have made the decision to allow his legacy of helping others by donating his organs.  Like all parents, Moises and Sarah never planned for the passing of a child so young.  There is no life insurance and estimated funeral costs are approximately $7,000.  Please help this family with the tragic situation put before them way before it's time.  All donations will be put towards any expenses for a proper funeral for this young man taken so early.  The photo chosen was to represent him looking down on us from his final resting place, smiling as we will all remember him.
