Levi was a first-grade student at Nutter Fort Elementary School and was an after-school student of Mother Goose Land. Levi has been a bright place in the lives of anyone who had the pleasure of being in his presence. His sweet laugh was absolutely contagious. He loved his 2 baby brothers so fiercely, anytime we would have a "fun date" with his aunts he would ask "what about Wes and Parker?" He loved being around cousins and extended families. he loved Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Spider-Man, and Sonic. He loved hunting and fishing with his daddy, dance parties with his mommy and brothers, beach trips with his family, and he liked the rodeo and cowboys.

The family would like to express their sincerest gratitude to the staff of the West Virginia University Children's Hospital PICU dept. Their compassion, skill, personal empathy is unmatched and was a lifeline to everyone who loved Levi. His family would also like to thank everyone who has shown their love, their prayers, their acts of service and kindness during the duration of his illness. The outpouring of love and support we have received from everyone including family and friends, businesses, and people that have never even heard of our family. We would like to thank everyone who has joined us in prayer for our medical miracle, but we've realized that Levi was the ultimate miracle.
