This memorial website was created in loving memory of our beloved baby,Elijah Romari Boone
who was born on September 09, 2003 and passed away suddenly in his sleep on May 3, 2005 at the
tender age of 1 year 7 months and 24 days.
We will remember you forever and for always for you are "The Light and Love of Our Lives".
***************************************************
THERE IS NO PAIN GREATER THAN THE DEATH OF A CHILD...
My 19 m/o baby Elijah passed away on Tuesday morning, May 3rd 2005. He would have turned 20 months
that following Monday. We've already held his funeral (the day before Mother's Day) but the cause of
death is still unknown.
Monday May 2, 2005, Elijah woke with a fever. I let him sleep after breakfast and when he woke for
lunch I gave him a peanut butter & jelly sandwich and Tylenol chewable tabs. He laid down for his
mid-afternoon nap on our couch in the den. I walked into the den an hour later and saw him sitting
up looking at TV; he looked better, but even when he was sick he was always smiling and playful.
When my older two boys got home from school we went to the grocery store so that I could make
something for dinner that night. After dinner I sat at my computer and my oldest son Roshan asked if
I could play his favorite song "Numb (Encore)", and so I did. All three of them...Roshan
9....Lorenzo 4....and Elijah 19 mos were dancing all around me as I watched. Elijah no longer had a
fever and I even made a point of saying "My baby's not sick anymore" and picked him up and hugged
and kissed him. My husband came around the corner from the kitchen, smiling at the site of Elijah
dancing because I had mentioned to him earlier that Elijah had a fever. After the kids were done
dancing and playing I brought them all upstairs. I laid Elijah on my bed so that he could fall
asleep. I sat on our futon folding the rest of the laundry and watched as he fell asleep. All the
while my husband was in the shower. When I finished with the clothes...I grabbed Elijah and picked
him up off of my bed, and at that time my husband came out of the shower and saw me carrying Elijah
out of our room. He was sleeping but he still was peeking out of his right eye at me and I just
smiled. I kept kissing him and smelling his sweet cheeks before I laid him in his playpen...not
knowing that it was going to be the last time I would see my baby alive.
No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say goodbye, you were
gone before we knew it, and only
God knows why.
My husband woke me up the next morning as it was routine for us all to get up around 5 a.m. to take
him to work. He usually gets the older two boys and I get Elijah, but I just could not get up that
morning. My husband then woke me up and told me to look at Elijah. I got up from bed and walked out
of our room into the hallway and saw my husband sitting at the top of the steps with his face in his
hands, telling me to look at Elijah. My heart was beating really fast and I was afraid of what I was
going to see because if it wasn't of anything to worry about my husband would've had Elijah in his
arms as he had just left from the kids' room. I could feel in my heart that something was terribly
wrong but to what extent I wasn't sure. I walked into the kids' room and over to Elijah's playpen.
Elijah was lying on his stomach with his face down in the pillow. I leaned over to pick up Elijah
from his playpen and he was already stiff. I turned him over and death was staring at me in the
face. It was the scariest thing I have ever seen in my life, and for that moment my heart just
stopped. I didn't even feel as if that was my Elijah I was holding. I had to put him down quick and
run to the phone. I called 911 and paramedics, police officers and even the fire department showed
up at my house that morning. The operator tried to tell me to do CPR on my baby but I just kept
crying and yelling that I couldn't even look at my baby...that I couldn't even hold my baby. The
paramedics all went up into the room and I know they were doing what they could to resuscitate
Elijah but I already knew in my heart that my baby was gone.

Even though things are different I pray they stay the same.
Because the hours, the nights, the days; they just came.
I want the cold, the snow, the ice on the ground.
Time doesn't stop just because I am not around.
Shimmering lights, merry wreaths, and decorations on the tree.
But I hope, and I dream that you're thinking of me.
Candles that flicker, burn, and melt away.
Just like the words in my head that I need to say.
Familiar feelings, alone, and without me.
Even though it's old; it's still fresh, and it's new.
Light the logs, in the fire place, but don't let them go out.
You need to hold on to something bright to curve your
doubt.
I want the gifts, and the presents underneath the tree.
Even if not a one of them is addressed to me.
Leave them wrapped, even after New Years they stay.
So there's always surprises, and a chance for a new day.
