Eli Hart
We think it’s important to remember him for who he was instead of how he died.
Eli was a bright light and we want his light to shine on with something positive for him, his family, his classmates and teachers and our entire community.
Eli had a giant toothless smile and was always full of giggles.
His favorite colors were green and gold.
He had a very special bond with his Dad, a magnetic one. His father’s fiancé said “the way the looked at each other and the true innocent joy they had playing together is something I miss”
Eli and his dad loved playing with cars, building things, doing art, reading books and watching movies but what they loved the most was their time outside.
He loved playgrounds. Going to parks was something he did with his Dad and Dad’s fiancé all the time and they say that those are some of the memories they hold close.
Swinging as high as he could trying to touch his toes to the treetops, just like we all did when we were kids.
Swinging on the monkey bars, running and playing tag, playing lava monster and making friends. Eli always made a new friend or knew another kid playing.
He had a rough life but he made the best of it.
