Elijah E. Eichhorn

Elijah E. Eichhorn, beloved son of Gregory J. and Katherine S. Eichhorn.  Dear brother of Zahara, Kimora, Manuel, Aidric, Gideon, Israel, Avalyn and Everet. Also survived by many other family members. Elijah was our calm in times of chaos. He gave our lives purpose and direction. He loved taking naps with his Mommy and sitting on his Daddy’s lap. He taught his siblings about inclusion and love. Those who knew him cherished him deeply. And those who didn’t may still be touched by his life without knowing it. He enjoyed Star Wars, lights and music. He created a ripple of inspiration that has loved and changed the world around him and beyond him. Elijah outlived his short life expectancy 400 times over and was known for being persistent, peaceful, and stronger than you think. The world won’t be the same without him, but his life will be felt by so many. Elijah passed away on Monday, July 11, 2022 at his residence, after a long illness; he was 14 years old.

Services for Elijah will be private.  Ralph Meyer & Deters Funeral Home serving the family.
