Elias John Stefanakos, 41, was born on October 24, 1984, in San Bernardino, CA, and died on August 1, 2026. He was a man whose presence could feel close and steady—someone remembered not only for the years he lived, but for the way those years were shared with others in quiet, meaningful ways.
Elias resided in Yuma, Arizona. Those who knew him will carry forward the imprint of his life in the everyday moments that now feel newly precious—conversations replayed, small kindnesses recalled, and the simple comfort of having had him near.
He is remembered with love, and his memory will remain a lasting part of the hearts that hold him.
