Sean Levert Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 31, 2008.
CLEVELAND (AP) - Singer Sean Levert, son of lead O'Jays singer Eddie Levert and brother of the late R&B singer Gerald Levert, has died after a medical emergency in jail. He was 39.

Levert was sent to jail last week for failing to pay child support and died late Sunday night at Lutheran Hospital in Cleveland, said coroner Frank Miller.

Miller said an autopsy will be conducted to determine the cause of death.

Gerald Levert was 40 when he died in 2006 of an accidental mix of prescription and over-the-counter drugs.

The Levert brothers and childhood friend Marc Gordon were part of the R&B trio LeVert. Their hits included "(Pop, Pop, Pop, Pop) Goes My Mind" and "Casanova."

God called my nephew Sean home five years ago today and life has not been the same since, if I could climb the stair way to heaven and bring you home just to have this week back so that every one could have one last hug one last smile but since I can't I will live with all the great memories that you left with me. Nephew as I use to tell you I loved you so much because you remined me so much of your uncle Andrew.R.I.P. and good night till we see each other again

Sean,there is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you, even though I know that you are at peace it does not stop me from missing my nephew. Sometimes I think about the way you use to look at Drew and I when we were mad at each other,then you would leave and come back with the "Best" shrimp because you knew how much I loved shrimp. Sean, you always remined me so much of Andrew, that's why I loved you so much. so "Sex-o" continue to rest in peace and I will continue to celebrate your life, so in your honor I light a candle. Wow do I miss the "Good Ole Days"!!!!
