In Loving Memory of Johnny

Our family lost our 3 year old,  John “Johnny” David McElwain. As some may already be aware, Johnny was born with CCHD, Complex Congenital Heart Defects.https://www.facebook.com/johnnymstrong/ 

During his 3 years of life his parents have been in and out of the hospital, with Some stays that have lasted months. Bridgett is a stay at home mom to 6 year old Kellie and 3 year old Johnny. . She would be there to take Johnny to his many appointments in Boston at Boston Children’s Hospital, while John works a full time job.


The Family is helping to cover all funeral costs.


During this time we would like to set a fund up to help the with all their non funeral-related financial costs. We are hoping this will give them time to grieve together without the worry about how things will be paid.


Any donation helps, and no donation is to small ♥️

John “Johnny” David McElwain III, 3

October 23rd, 2020, Johnny McElwain tragically succumbed to his Complex Congenital Heart Defects after 3 open-heart surgeries and many other procedures.

Born in Brookline Massachusetts on September 30th, 2017, Johnny was the brightest light you’d ever gaze upon. Despite a long three years of traumatic medical experiences, surgeries and hospital stays, Johns smile was always so wide, ear to ear every-time he was with those who loved him. He was an admiring younger brother to proud big sister Kellie, 6, a real life superhero to his parents, John Jr, and Bridgett. He is also survived by a large family of aunts, uncles, cousins, and 3 sets of grandparents, and 3 sets of great grandparents.

Johns family will forever miss their beautiful boy, with the fighting spirit you’d surely expect out of a little Irish boy like himself. He is a warrior, a king, and greatly added to the lives of those around him. He will be endlessly missed.
