Hey brother. I love you so much. I wish it wasn’t your time to go. Seeing you slowly fade away from us broke me into a million pieces. I know you’re in a better place right now. You’re with your grandparents and all your family members and friends. I already went to work out. Without you it felt so different. I just wish you would’ve reached out to me. You did every single time besides this. I question as to why you didn’t text me, or anyone about this. You knew you had a home with us. Levi my brother. I will see you again. I don’t know when, but only time can tell. I love you so much. I hope you know that.
I first met you when I came to Belcourt middle school in the 7th grade. We became close friends & found out we were related. You were my football teammate for 6 years, and my lifting partner for the past 7 years. You became my brother and we counted on each other for absolutely everything. We’ve traveled the nation competing. You & I won nationals together. We were planning on becoming world champions in 2024. We were planning on opening our own gym. I am absolutely so numb right now. You & I hit so many PR’s together in the weight room. So many laughs. The countless number of spots we gave each other for squat & bench. The hype we gave each other for deadlifts. Everything. It wasn’t your time to go yet. It just wasn’t. God had other plans for you. I swear to you Levi every single rep in the weight room is dedicated to you.
We were teammates. We graduated high school together. We coached football together. We coached peewee baseball together. We got our 2-year together. We competed together.
I love you my brother. I was there for your final breaths. You passed right in my hands. Until we meet again. #tmstrength
