Eilia Jahjah

Eilia Jahjah, 66, of Delray Beach, passed away on June 27, 2024.

He was born May 21, 1958, in Haifa, Israel to loving parents, Bade and Helene Jahjah. Throughout his life, he touched the hearts of many with his generous personality and kind spirit.

Eilia met the love of his life, Samira, in Ithaca, NY, when he sold a restaurant to her. This sparked the exciting new future they would embark on together.  They couldn’t wait to start a family of their own; the birth of their son Paul, brought immeasurable love to their lives. He is their light and joy and means the absolute world to them. 

Their life journey together grew into a deep bond that was filled with love and adventure. 

Eilia's dedication to his community was evident through his active involvement with the Freemasonry, Scottish Rite, and his church. His commitment to these organizations reflected his belief in the importance of brotherhood, charity, and spiritual growth. He devoted his time and energy to all. 

Everyone who knew Eilia knew how much he loved to travel; it was his passion. You would never know where he would be when you called him. He embraced every opportunity to explore new places. His adventurous spirit and love for different cultures allowed him to form connections with people from all walks of life.

Eilia's ability to make friends quickly and open his home to others was one of his most cherished qualities. His warmth and hospitality were a testament to his generous heart. He was the kind of person who made everyone feel welcome and loved.

We couldn’t have asked for a better husband and father, and he will be missed every day. He leaves behind a legacy of love, friendship, and community service. We will forever hold onto the memories of his gentle nature and the joy he brought to our lives. May his memory be eternal and live on in the hearts of all those who loved him. 

Eilia Jahjah is predeceased by his father Bade Jahjah, mother Helene Jahjah, and brother Issam Jahjah. He is survived by brothers Bassam Jahjah, George Jahjah, wife Samira Jahjah and son Paul Jahjah. 

Memorial services will be held Sunday June 30, 2024. Visitation is from 12:00 pm until 1:30 pm promptly followed by service at 1:30pm at Glick Family Funeral Home (3600 N Federal Hwy, Boca Raton, FL 33431). May his memory be eternal.
