Levi Richard Hughes

March 13, 2015 - June 11, 2018

Levi Richard Hughes, age 3, was a cherished son and baby brother. His parents, Jonathan and Nicole Hughes, and his adoring big sisters, Lily (age 9) and Reese (age 5) are heart broken. His tragic death on June 11, 2018, is just one part of his story. His real story is constantly jumping, running, yelling, being ALL BOY. Levi’s story is playing outside with his Daddy, riding his bike to the top of the hill. His story is snuggling with his Mama, asking for “all of the hugs” and “all of the kisses.” It’s playing hide and seek behind the curtains, giggling, with Reese. His story is jumping on the trampoline with Lily, his oldest sister (and his second mom). His story is every life he touched with his energy, laughing, and pure physical-ness. He leaves behind a large extended family of loving grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles. His family’s lives are shattered, but they would choose all of this over, again, just to have had these three years with him. The family will receive friends from 5:00 – 8:00 P.M., Friday, at Akard Funeral Home. A memorial service will be held at 10:00 A.M., Saturday, June 16, 2018 at St. Anne Catholic Church.
