Eli was a wonderful person. He did a bunch of work for us during the last few years of his life, and it was always a joy to have him around. It was painful to watch him battle in his final months, but he wore his challenges with great pride and determination. He made us laugh and he made us think. He will be missed.

We are so sad about the news of Eli’s passing. The Nava household is so somber. Eli was such a presence in our lives. He was always laughing, smiling and enjoying life. Summer is going to feel so empty without him chasing the sun and bbqing in the backyard. We will miss him so much. He was a truly wonderful man, father and friend and we are so lucky to have had his friendship. We wish you peace as you grieve. Love always, your best friend Ezra and the Nava family.
