Elijah Abraham Muhs, 18, of Ooltewah, Tennessee, passed away on Tuesday, July 13, 2021 at T.C. Thompsons Children’s Hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Visitation will be held at Chattanooga Funeral Home, Valley View Chapel in Chattanooga on Thursday, July 15, from 6-8 p.m.

Funeral services will be held at Chattanooga Funeral Home, Valley View Chapel on Friday, July 16, at 10 a.m. with Pastor Fred Fuller of McDonald Road Seventh Day Adventist Church officiating. Burial will follow at Collegedale Memorial Park Cemetery in Collegedale.

Elijah was born in Peoria, Il. to Dan and Charity Muhs on March 14, 2003.  The family moved to Chattanooga in 2016 where he graduated from Collegedale Academy in 2021. He served at Cohutta Springs Youth Camp as a staff member. Elijah was an incredibly knowledgeable and super loyal fan of the Chicago Bears. Sorry Titans, GO BEARS!! He loved making McBuckets Nation videos with his bros in order to make others laugh. Words cannot begin to articulate how much Elijah will be remembered as a youth with a huge heart, full of compassion for others, especially for the friendless, alone or disconnected.

Elijah leaves his loving memories to be cherished by his loving family, parents, Dan and Charity, older brother, Noah and younger sister, Hannah Muhs.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Collegedale Academy for McBuckets Nation, at 4855 College Drive E, Collegedale, TN 37315.

The family wishes to extend their gratitude to T.C. Thompson’s Children’s Hospital pediatrics ICU staff and the numerous friends and family for their loving support in his final days.
