Every where we went this weekend I thought of you a lot. Started crying for no reason in the car with Duane and the kids. Went to the mall to go to the movies, but before we went we waked down to Auntie em's to get pretezel's and they now have caramel dip. Macayla just says randomly..Levi would have loved that! Only person I know who would eat caramel on a pretezel or anything that would be ok with it :) Love you and miss you!!!! Also may go to Talkeetna this weekend for you. So far flat top and Aunt Rands's.

My deepest sympathy for Levi's father, family and friends. He was much too young and will be missed.
I love you and miss you smiley. You are one of the few people who could take my crappy mood and make me smile like that! XOXO

Hi Levi,
Just passed the four week mark. I think about you soo much but I am in better terms with everything for the most part now. You will be greatly missed. The kids and I keep fighting over anything we find around the house that was yours LOL :) I know you would understand that. Hey brother something to make you smile...remember it was ours "pumped up kicks". See you someday soon. Muah XOXOXO

Levi,
We often discussed how we could define or label our relationship and we never really came up with anything. But we know what it is. I am lost without you.
Our "family" is trying hard to take care of me. I know that is important to you. Knowing you are with Nick is what I have for now.

I so appreciate everyone sharing their memories of my Levi. This is so comforting. He had just switched to my old phone and not yet set up his voice mail. This is the next best thing.

Levi was my son, my friend , and my joy. How hard it is to know that he is gone from this world I cannot explain. How wonderful it is to know that I will see him when I meet my Lord needs no explanation. I love you Levi and look forward to seeing you in glory. Dad

Levi was a great friend of mine and spent a lot of time together here in Alaska. He always had a smile on his face and always cheered me up when I was down. He will truly be missed and I will never forget about him. I have some awesome memories with him and he was always there when I needed someone to talk to. My condolences are sent to his family and he will be watching over all of us.

My family and I are so sad to hear about Levi. He was such a great friend to my brother and he never failed to make us laugh. I really miss when you lived with mike. It was always so fun coming over and hanging out with the two of you. He is really going to miss you Levi. But now you are with Nick and we'll see you both again someday. Rest in peace...

Levi it's hard to believe we met playing Pool six years ago and you elected playing darts where you won more games. I will always remember your smiling face and comical ways. Rest in Peace my friend. God bless all of your family.

Kathlene and family, my heart deeply aches. I agree with Cousin Brenda that from all you've shared about your precious son, it's a shame I didn't ever have the chance to get to know him. May the Lord comfort all of you with his undeniable presence as you walk this journey of grief and pain.
Love,
Tammy
