Elly, we went on a date once. Our bosses were married and set us up. It was such a fun night and we discovered our mutual love for eating. Lol. We stood out all night. It didn’t work out because we lived so far from each other but we remained friends and always kept in touch. I thought you were such a kind person.  I barely saw that you passed away, today. It made me very sad. I was wondering why I hadn’t heard from you in awhile. Rest In Peace. You will always have a special little place in my heart. 

Elly, I miss you so much. You were the first cousin and because of that you’ve always felt like a big brother to me. You had the biggest heart out of everyone I’ve met and always found a way to make time for me, and always tried to find a way to put a smile on anyone’s face when they were down. I feel so blessed that you were a big part of my life because I couldn’t imagine not having you there for the big moments and happy memories. I am still in disbelief but I know God works in ways I sometimes don’t understand. I love you Elly. You will be missed. 

Elly had a big heart, loved everybody and had the best smile. 

Elly, you were such a blessing in my life and you’ll always continue to be a blessing. You were the oldest and wisest cousin out of all of us. We started to form a relationship when I was 11. You ALWAYS made me feel included whenever the cousins got together. I remember you standing up for me when the older kids didn’t want me to tag along. I started to look up to you seeing how caring you were for me. I would try and dress “cool” like you so I could fit in. I always wanted to be around you and hear you laugh and see you smile! Once I got older we became closer and closer and we would stay up until 3am chatting on AIM talking about music and our lives. You’re the best cousin I could’ve had and I love you too much, but I’m so happy and overjoyed to know that you’re in a better place! I’m blessed that my last words to you that day were “I miss you so much and can’t wait to see you”, and I hold to that today, I miss you and can’t wait to see you again Elly!

Elly was a benevolent soul, his kindred spirit always tending towards sharing laughter and love with his friends and family. He will be dearly missed as he makes his way back home to Jesus. 
Love you cuz

 You know I’m still in disbelief about Elly passing. As the days keep passing by I start to realize more and more just how tragic death is. I used to think it wasn’t a big deal because everyone has to die eventually, but I never actually lost someone I was actually close to, especially a family member. Elly was always there for me in Colorado. He was very loving and nice to everyone he met and He impacted he came across in a positive way. I never thought he would pass, especially at 27, when he had so much to give to the world, but god often works in ways we don’t often understand. instead of sharing a memory I’d rather share his strongest feature, which was his smile. His smile would draw in everyone and there was just something magical about it, even in times as sad and tragic as this l, at least we know he’s home with his father now. 
I love you cousin,
James 

Dear Elly,
You had a gentle spirit and an open heart. You were quick to help those in need and slow to judge. You loved unconditionally and lived with vigor. Though your life was cut short, you left behind a legacy of kindness and generosity, touching the lives of those around you. We will miss you. Rest in peace. 
Love, Debs your cousin 

Rest in peace Elly. I hope you leave a trail behind you in every person you touch in your new journey the way you touched every person you encountered here.  I think of all the hours spent at the kitchen table talking and your big smile in the backseat of the car that inevitably brought a smile to the ones around you. You were not only respected and adored by the ones closest to you but loved and cherished. To be loved by so many people because of the positive impact you had in their life is not something everyone gets to experience and you did in your short time here. Too short. You on a daily basis were a reminder of how genuine people can be. From folding your clothes and cleaning your room, to stocking up the pantry after you raided it, to moving those high top converse out of the middle of the room everyday, to the Friday night darts and the Sundays doing absolutely nothing, I have nothing but fond memories and appreciation for your friendship and the love you gave to the ones I love who adored you. Rest in peace Elly. 

It all started with a phone call from my nephew Nick "Tia can I bring my best friend to Thanksgiving dinner" this was years ago.. My family saw your son grow to a boy with no muscles to a man with strength in that smile and love for life that lifted the world he surrounded. He started out as quiet and shy to the guy with all the punch lines..  His smile was contagious to the gatherings he attended with our family.. soon  it was expected Elly would attend our gatherings.. Nick would still give us a call mostly to warn us to make more food Elly was coming.. The Kid ate for a whole football team.. But that smile he has was larger than anyone but when you gave Elly that food to go... That smile was ENORMOUS... and will continue to be a memory for us.. You raised a great young man.. with the most respect he had for our family and bigger man he was to admit his mistakes..  His love, respect, and the ENORMOUS smile will live on in many that he touched.. Life taken to short.. but Heaven must of needed that smile.. Elly thank you for our coloring time and getting me addicted to the coloring app..    

Elly,

Where to begin ??? I think back to some of the first times that Nick brought you into our home, at first I knew you as the quite and respectful skinny kid with the appetite of a 300 pound linebacker.  Then in time you were not the known to us as the skinny kid but you were know as Elly who was also a part of our family.  As I read and listen to your friends share their memories they have with  you the absolute constant is your loyalty to your friends and loved ones, along with your positive outlook you had in life was infectious. I myself Elly will miss giving you a hard time and the smile that would follow. Thank you Elly for becoming a part of my Family and becoming a brother to Nick, he will always have a hole in his heart that was taken away the day you left to be with God.  

  To Elly's Family,

 Elly has left such a positive mark on this earth even tho his time here has been cut short. Elly will live on thru the countless friends he has touched. I know that his faith in God was important to him and he had many discussions about it with my son, that  same faith will guide him in his next journey. I commend you for raising a great young man who will be greatly missed by all 

I feel as though I am the blessed one to have been graced by your son’s big heart and amazing personality. It is truly the mark of wonderful parents. He was kind, respectful and the most wonderful person. Every bit of my heart goes out to you during this most difficult time. The world isn’t the same without him here. Love you Elly. 

Elly was truly a one of a kind guy. A guy that always made you smile, a guy with a true heart, a guy that made the world a better place. Elly, you’ve had such an impact on my life and I will cherish the memories we created together. You’re a beloved friend that was a light on our adventures. I could always count on you to be right there for everything with your positive outlook. 
I love you Elly. Rest in Paradise, you’ll always be in our hearts.

Elly,
I have nothing but positive memories of you. You were a great man and a better friend. I remember you being the voice of reason when we'd go out. You were always happy just to be with friends. Your outgoing spirit was a magnet to most of us. I remember meeting you through Nick, I think we all met you through him. The love you of brothers you two shared was noticeable from the start. I'll miss you but I don't think anyone who has met you will ever forget you. God needed the best of us and you were the best of us.

Elly was a beautiful soul. Funny, kind hearted, and loving. He was always smiling, and trying to make others do the same. He will be missed in many ways by many people. Now he's watching over us all. Any time you think of him, just smile, because that's what he would want you to do. Love you Elly. 

Elly,

Where do I begin bro? You were the positive to my negative. You were literally my best friend. Everything I ever did, you were with me. We laughed together, we fought together, we cried together, we did EVERYTHING together. You’ve literally changed my entire outlook on life through your positive outlook on everything. No matter how hard anything was, you always kept a smile on your face. You’ve taught me to be the same way. Everything you’ve ever taught me will live on through me. Save a place up there for me. I love you brother.

I love you Elly. The memories i have with you could fill a book. You were the best friend a person could have. Always just a phone call away. There will be a void in my heart forever. You weren't just a best friend you were a brother. I will always remember the great times and your infectious smile and attitude. I love you brother and I will miss you. Rest in paradise Elly I love you and you will always be in my heart. 

Elly was such a great friend! He did everything with us! He even had his own drawer of clothes and other belongings at our apartment. I’ll miss his kind smile and his big heart! Rest in paradise Ionut!
