Elias Collins Funeral

Elias (Left) and brother (right)


*UPDATE* 
We found a vault for Eli, and the very last one that faces the airport. Eli loved airplanes so much that we were going to surprise him on his birthday on the 28th of this month to take him on a helicopter ride over the Hoover Dam which is near the border of Neveda and Arizona but, he passed away too soon. So, we want to be able to at least give him this space. There is only one left at Davis Funeral Home which we feel like is destined and is the right thing to send him off with. He was a really good kid.

As far as pricing, Davis Funeral Home is requesting 20,000 for the coffin, viewing and the vault. But since we put the gofundme at 8,000, we feel as though we should keep it as is until we can reach that goal first. We are currently receiving outside help from family as well. We will keep you all updated on our goals but please share the go fund me out, and thank you to those who have supported so far. We can't do this without your help.

This is Raquel, sister of Elias Collins. I'm speaking on behalf of my family because it's been very hard for them.

My baby brother was found dead in his room. My mother had to kick open his door in order to get to him. We don't know the cause of death, the EMT said that he suddenly fell dead and that it could've been a heart attack because there was no signs of anything that could've caused him to die otherwise. We are waiting to get autopsy results. 

We would like to have a proper funeral for him and are hoping to get him into a vault in Las Vegas. We are contacting a few places that offer vaults and are waiting to see how much everything would cost but for now we have set our goal to $8000 since most vaults in Las Vegas cost around that price. We would all appreciate anything you could help with, anything to put him in a safe place for us to visit him. Thank you.

Elias was very sweet, kind and had the purest soul. Rest in peace baby brother. We love you so much.
