Eli Renfranz Tribute

Eli I have been thinking about you so much lately. I miss you dear friend. I wish you were hear to hang out with all of us. As you know it doesnt matter if the group doesnt talk much anymore, but when we get together it is just like old times. I find myself talking about my memories of you all the time. I hope you are watching down over all of us.
Just wanted you to know I think about you all the time. And every time I listen to Queen I think of you

Love,
Nikki

On 8/15/09 Shaun, Nick, Megan, Zack, TJ, Nicki, Altis, Ethan, Marie, John, and Arin got together with Don & Lisa over at Uncle John & Aunt Pam's Lake June house & had a great time riding the tubes & piggin' out on a BBQ feast. It was great for everyone getting together. We shared "Eli stories", and everyone shared the love. We missed Brandon & Remy, but responsibilities are part of getting older--there'll be a "next time"! Thanks to all! We miss you, Eli!

and I'll never forget you Eli

I just want to remind everyone or anyone that Eli is still carried on in our hearts, and, although we've had time, these wounds have not healed. We love you, Eli, and keep on shreddin'!!

i had eli in my 6th hr class, government- mrs. hyde.. he bought a shirt on the senior trip that had random words that noone could understand.. i was the only one in that class that knew what it said so everytime someone said "what does that mean?" i would say to him "eli, show them what your shirt says!" and he would just start to laugh and show everyone.. it was so funny and he always had a smile on his face everytime i said something about that shirt.. even though we only saw each other in that class, i felt like he was someone that anyone could run to and talk to about anything.. now everyday i walk into that class and expect to see him with that shirt on so i could say something to him.. but its too bad, i wont get that chance anymore.. eli was an awesome person and he will never be forgotten.. i think more people cared about him then he actually realized..

your always going to be missed eli, you'll always be in our prayers.. i hope you are watching over all of us from above.. put in a good word!!

love always- Kaylee Eckhardt 2008

i didnt know him that well. but he was a really really cool dude i would see him at the skatepark he'd always be smiling. he was the first person to ever help me learn stuff and he would encourage you to get up if you fell the first time or the 5th. you will never be forgotten r.i.p (rip in peace)
