To Levi´s Mother:
The loving bond you shared with your beloved son will never be broken.
He may no longer be here, but your love and prayers will be of such comfort to him.
You have written such beautiful sentiments to your Son through the years. A Mother´s love for her child is like no other. How Blessed you and Levi were to have each other.

Levi was literally "the boy next door" to us - kind, friendly, outgoing, and courteous. He would greet us if he was in his driveway when we came home, or would say Hi if he passed on the street. He loved his mom & sister, you knew that by the way he spoke to them & about them. Taken far too soon, and we miss him. Love to Erlinda & Cori!

Levi,
My brother from another Mother... literally. There is not a day that goes by that I don´t think of you. Cori and I talk about you often, and laugh at all the things you used to do with us as kids. My brother looked up to you, as if you were a super hero of some sort. Anytime I said, "I am going to Coris" he came along. He never got left behind because he so desperately wanted to be around you, and you wanted him there. I will be forever thankful for those times we shared and the smile you brought to not only my face but my brothers, and Coris as well. Your mom loved to have "the littles" over until we weren´t so little anymore, it was then that she had a house full of teenagers (uh oh) :) Anyway, keep reminding me of all the crazy, and loving things we used to do. I´ll be seeing you, I love you always <3

Not a day goes by where we all don´t think of and miss you Levi. I will never forget after every Thanksgiving setting the Christmas tree up, the Easter egg hunts, all of the family gatherings with you and Cori. You had the most contagious laugh and biggest heart. We miss you!

Dearest Levi we think of you so often. We miss your smiles, jokes and wonderful hugs. I´m sure you we´re like another son to every family you knew.

Hi Levi, cuz. I miss you so much. I'm beyond thankful you stayed a few extra minutes and met Sierra at 3 months. I love how we were randomly at the same A's game and we met up for a pic. I'm sad I dont have as many memories with you as others but I love the memories I do have with you. Our conversations continued to deepen and you always had the best energy and made me laugh. I continue to learn more about you and when I'm with our family or your friends continue to hear the best stories you were apart of. Most of all, I feel your presence every day. I know you are watching over us and my family of 3 thanks you everyday. 33 is everywhere, you are everywhere and always in my heart. I miss you dearly Levi. We love you. I love you.

Dear Erlinda: I was so shocked to see the memorial to Levi in today's paper. I am so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed Levi in my class and loved the long conversations we had. He was one of my favorites. He had a beautiful soul and he will surely be missed by anyone who ever knew him. You, Cori, and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

I remember the mischievous smiles Levi and Erik Lopez would get on their faces after they had taped the tracker on my mouse, or done something to try to distract me during their senior English class. They got away with it because they were good kids and had great senses of humor, and it made things fun. Levi was a larger-than-life presence, his smiles were contagious, and he made a huge impact on a lot of people at North County. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Sweet Levi loved his family so very much. The special bond he shared with his beloved Mother was so beautiful. He treasured her so. May she find peace in her heart knowing he will never truly leave her.
July 3, 2015
My thoughts and prayers are with with his family. Levi was kind to everyone he came in contact with and for many he was a source of light and positivity in their life. He always mentioned his mother and he loved his family greatly. Levi, please watch over your mother, sister and family. We will miss you greatly but I understand that God had a different purpose for you. You will always be imprinted on our hearts. May you rest in peace, kind soul.

Levi - You will be forever missed, but for always remembered. Baseball days were some of the best and happiest ever. All of us who feel your loss is not only a sign of who loved you, but also, who you loved. Jesse, Marc and I are thankful to the Powers that be for allowing us to know you. You are someone we will never forget. We pray for your resting soul; we pray that your spirit's wonderful energy be recycled into this world; and we pray for the timely healing of broken hearts. May perpetual light shine upon you, Levi.
