Alexander Nicholas Lee Elliott, 17, of Boonville, MO, passed away on Tuesday, July 26, 2022. Arrangements are pending. The family is accepting contributions towards a celebration of life for Alex. Any amount is a blessing to the family during their time of bereavement.

On July 14th a beautiful blessing of a baby was born. As most would expect, this would be one of the happiest time in a mother’s life. Unfortunately, 11 days later what should be a very happy time turned tragic. It’s hard enough for a parent to lose a child, but imagine no one could prepare anyone for this horrific loss. This world tragically lost this beautiful soul way too soon. At this time, we are hoping to help by surrounding the family with love and support. We want to give the family & Baby DJ the memorial he deserves. We are asking for donations to help assist with costs of the services and relieve any stress from the family at this time. We appreciate any consideration and are grateful. Thank you so much!
