Obituary of Elijah James Hillman

STOW- Elijah was born on September 17, 2003 and passed away in the arms of his loving family. Elijah recently completed his kindergarten year and received the Stolion Award at Indian Trail Elementary School.  He was also active in the Awana Program at Graham Road Baptist Church where he achieved his First Book Award. While his life was too short, it was always filled with happiness, and he never stopped giving back that happiness to his family and those around him with his huge smile.  He was a very creative young boy and could build anything out of a few Legos and some blocks.  If there was a patch of sand nearby, that was where you would find him playing! He will forever provide us with his happiness and joy through our many wonderful memories.  We feel truly blessed that we were chosen to be your family.  We are all so very proud of everything you did.  We love you and miss you Buddy! He is survived by his parents Michael and Michelle Hillman; sisters Cassandra and Mellissa Sandiford; grandparents Etta Jane Hillman, John and Barbara Hillman, Pauline and Ward Polandski and nephew Logan Naylor. Friends may call Tuesday 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 PM at Redmon Funeral Home.  Pastor Larry Engle will conduct service Wednesday 11 AM at Graham Road Baptist Church, 705 Graham Road in Cuyahoga Falls. Burial Silver Springs Cemetery.  Should friends desire, memorials may be made to Akron Children’s Hospital.  Elijah's video tribute may be seen here.
