LEV ETTO GOERTZEL MANN

It has taken me a while to write something to you because this really shocked me and I had to have time to react. Lev brightened every day in my classroom, even when he argued with me. There is one specific assignment that Leve took to like no other student, and I will forever be naming that assignment in honor of him. Everyone will learn about Lev's spice for life, as long as that assignment is used. My prayers are with you still. Joni McSpadden.

rebecca......omg.......when billy moore called me yesterday with the news I absolutely couldn't believe my ears...........please accept my condoloences and know that lev will be well missed.....as you know, lev was one of my top 5 students and he always exceeded well beyond my standards and expectations.......also one of my highest ranking students who loved to compete and always sparred with confidence.......I am notifying all of his martial arts classmates following this note.......stay...

Ms. Goertzel,

We are so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Goertzel family,
There are never words for this experience, and all feel trite. It is hard to understand how such a vibrant light energy could move on to become a distant star; one that we can only see from a distance, and only in the darkest sky.

I have seen much grief in my own soul and know there comes a shimmer of light that allows us to live again on this plane in time. I also know that at this time it feels like it will never happen. We are all holding your hands in...

Dear Goertzel-Mann family,
Like so many others, we were shocked to hear the news about Lev. He and my daughter were classmates. He will be missed by many. Our hearts ache for you.

I can't find the words to express how sad I am, I am so sorry to hear about Lev. He will be missed by so many that he touched along the way. My thoughts have been and will stay with you and your family.

Rebecca and Tony,
My entire family is full of sorrow at the unexpected loss of your beautiful son. Our hearts are full of sadness for your entire family and we pray that you find strength and solace in knowing that Lev's spirit is smiling down on you, with hope your tears diminish with time's passage.
