Lexi spent her first 9 years of life in Massachusetts, where she attended Foxborough Regional Charter School, played soccer, became a Girl Scout, and spent many weekends surrounded by love with friends and family.
Lexi and her family moved to Florida in 2011, where she grew up on Pine Island in Saint James City and Bokeelia. She attended Pelican Elementary, Caloosa Middle, and North Fort Myers High. Some of her hobbies included chorus, acting, Girl Scouts, and community service. She was an avid member of the Pine Island Playhouse and PILOT Program, Pine Island Leaders of Tomorrow- I just lost the game!
At home, she enjoyed playing with her siblings, dressing up and wearing costume makeup, dancing in the kitchen with her mom and sister, wishing her brother a "happy birthday time" every day at 9:11, celebrating every holiday and birthday whole-heartedly, making everyone feel special and loved, and going on frequent family trips to Orlando- Let's Boo This!
Lexi spent her last 3 years of High School at Pace Center for Girls in Fort Myers, FL. She truly shined at Pace where she was always loved, included, and accepted for who she was. Lexi's family would like to thank the staff and students at Pace for being such an intricate part of her story. A special thanks to "Miss Valerie Parus" who went above and beyond with Lexi. Once a Pace Girl, Always a Pace Girl.
Lexi graduated High School in 2020. She went on to live a free-spirited lifestyle with a love of freedom and people. Lexi had the biggest heart of forgiveness. She always put others' happiness before her own. She was an advocate for all walks of life. Lexi wanted to change the world, and she has (and will continue to) changed the world for so many people.
The family invites friends and family to celebrate her life at the next annual NAMI Walks in March 2025 at Centennial Park Fort Myers, FL. In 2020, Lexi and her mother created a NAMI Walks team and called it "Just Keep Swimming". Please join our team and walk in her honor. You may also locate your local NAMI organization and walk near you.
A special thank you to Miss Jennifer, and her team at Center Stone for navigating the past few years with Lexi. Please don't ever stop fighting!
