Levi was raised on the Blood Reserve, Alberta. He attended Aahsaopi elementary school, Kainai Middle School, and Kainai High School. His hobbies included writing poems, extensive gaming with friends and family. Levi loved spending time with family and friends. He also loved Teddy bears, animals and especially food! If there was an animal in sight, you would always find him cuddling up to it.
Levi always had a great time building forts with his cousin Keyshawn. They would hang out listening to music all hours of the night, didn’t matter how old he was. Levi’s gentleness showed when the smaller children wrestled with him and he would take extra care when flipping them around in a playful manner. The children never cried from being hurt, only cried when the wrestling ceased. Levi loved the ladies!
A Candlelight Vigil will be held on Saturday, October 6 at 6 p.m near Albert's Gas Bar, Standoff, AB. A Wake Service will be held at the Senator Gladstone Hall, Blood Reserve on Sunday, October 7th from 5:00 - 11:00 p.m. The Funeral Service will be at the Senator Gladstone Hall on Monday, October 8th at 11:00 a.m..
