Ellee Faith Hafley

Ellee Faith, our beloved 6-year-old daughter, sister, and radiant light, passed away on Saturday July 26, 2025.  With hearts full of love and sorrow, we celebrate the beautiful life of a little girl who touched everyone she met with her boundless kindness and joyful spirit.

Ellee Faith was a gift beyond measure, her presence a blessing that filled our lives with love. As her mother, I can say the bond we shared was unparalleled, a connection so deep it will forever anchor my heart. Ellee Faith and her brother were inseparable, two peas in a pod who called each other “Sissy” and “Brother.” They shared every adventure, from playful giggles to quiet moments of togetherness, their love for each other a testament to the purest form of sibling devotion.

Ellee Faith’s heart was a reflection of her love for Jesus, whom she adored with a faith as bright as her smile. She found joy in the simple beauty of flowers, often picking them to share with others, and she loved the idea in the magic of unicorns, her imagination as vibrant as the colors she loved. Selfless to her core, Ellee Faith lived for others, always thinking of ways to bring happiness to those around her. Her generosity and compassion were far beyond her years, leaving an indelible mark on our family and community.

Ellee Faith is eagerly awaiting the arrival of her sweet daddy, Johnnie Lee and doting  mommy Hannah Faith Hafley, her best brother Levi and sweet baby brother Samuel, beloved grandparents Chuck and Angela Norman, and John and Susanne Hafley, loving aunts and uncles, Micah and Lou Norman, Nathan and Katie Norman, Ben and Tori Norman, Sarah (Norman) and Abel Burke, Leah (Norman) and Justin Hall, Mary Grace (Norman) and Danyil Ramey, Naomi Joy Norman, and Robert (Hafley) and Johna, as well as the most fun cousin crew - Lily, Adelaide, Nat, Jude, Cassia Lynn, Julia, Jackson, Elaine, Josephine, and baby Burke arriving any day. 

A Celebration of Life service will be held on Tuesday, August 5, 2025, at 4:00 pm at Christian Life Church, 2700 Bush River Rd, Columbia, SC 29210.

To honor Ellee Faith’s love of flowers, please bring a bouquet or individual blossom of your choice (vase ready) to the service.  Vases will be in sanctuary for your flowers.
