Adam Jeyarajah

Adam Ghandhi JeyaRajah, age 21, of Costa Mesa, CA and most recently Bend, Oregon, died in the early hours of January 21, 2018, in a car accident. Adam was born December 29,1996, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to parents Indi JeyaRajah and Darleen Savage. Adam spent most of his life in Costa Mesa. He attended Killybrooke Elementary, and Costa Mesa High School, splitting his time between athletics, like football and volleyball, as well as the arts, like drama and choir. He was nothing if not well rounded. A self-proclaimed "fried chicken connoisseur", Adam was also a promising culinary student, studying at Cascade Culinary Institute in Bend while also working in the kitchen at Bistro 28. He had a fierce love for family, friends, food and adventure. Adam would do anything for a great story; like jumping into the Mississippi River in the middle of winter or buying a one day ticket to a music festival across the country by himself just to see his favorite artist. Adam was charismatic and compassionate beyond belief. There was no one more proud or inspired by watching the people he loved do great things, and even if they werent that great, Adam could make you feel as though youd just climbed Everest. Adam is survived by his parents, his older sister Hannah, his older brother Noah, his brother-in-law (Paper Brother) Ross, his step-father Steve, a hoard of loving cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, countless beloved friends - including the squad, and the brotherhood, and his faithful sidekick - Pancakes the pug. A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, January 27, 2018 at Westside Church in Bend, OR at 2 pm. There will also be a Celebration of Life held on Feb 3, 1-4pm, at Halecrest Club in Costa Mesa, CA. The family would like to thank everyone for their kind words and memories of Adam. He will be forever cherished, forever remembered, forever loved.
