Baby Elijah Amaru Barnes, affectionately known as Baby  Eli was born on May 12,2022 to the proud parentage of Destiny D. Cruncher- Jackson and Emanuel Barnes IV.

Elijah only spent 4 1/2 months with us, but during those short few months, he brought so much love and life to our family. Elijah’s family includes his mother, father and two brothers.

Although Eli was with us for only a short time,  he left us with smiles, joy and fond memories that will last a lifetime. Eli touched so many of our hearts and lives that he will forever remain in our hearts, minds and memories.

May God continue to blessed our family with Eli, our personal guardian angel who will now forever watch over and protect us. We know that Baby Eli will continue to make a profound heartfelt impact in all of our lives.
