2014 Fundraiser

Elijah Todd Davis , 17,  unexpectedly went home to be with his Lord and Savior early Sunday morning July, 28, 2013.  Born on September 2, 1995, Elijah was a strong and loving young man.  He was passionate about life and all he did. He had just graduated from Mount Mansfield Union High School in June.

            God gifted Elijah with a great musical ability.  He was an amazing drummer and loved to play in church.  He adored and tormented his high school band director Mary Bauer and still received the Mount Mansfield Union High School’s Music Department Award at his honors night. Elijah was an active leader in his church Youth Group at Jericho Congregational Church spending many hours singing, worshiping and playing his beloved drums.  He was a gifted speaker and this was evident during his senior testimony at church.

            Elijah began playing lacrosse in the 5^th grade and continued throughout high school.  He loved the sport and considered his team part of his family.  Elijah also loved the challenging demands in wrestling and was a part of the team for 2 years.  This experience helped him get and stay in physical shape. Being in top shape was important to Elijah.  He was proud to have enlisted in the United States Marine Corps and was scheduled to head to boot camp, at Parris Island on September 2, his 18^th birthday.
