Levi James McClurg entered the presence of his Savior on October 8, 2025, at the age of 25.

He found joy in learning and beauty in the order of mathematics, where he saw the hand of God. His life reflected his favorite quote: “Take what the world has to give you and let it make you kind.” Those who knew and loved him said that is exactly how he lived.

Though his time was short, his family will remember him for his quick wit, kind heart, and brilliant mind.

Levi loved helping others understand difficult ideas in simple ways.

He had recently completed his master’s degree in mathematics and was preparing to begin his Ph.D. studies, pursuing his dream of exploring God’s creation through numbers.

He traveled to more than twenty nations, with Uganda holding a special place in his heart. He dedicated his master’s thesis to a young Ugandan girl named Robina, whose life was cut short, but whose dream of becoming a teacher inspired him deeply.

Levi is survived by his loving parents Craig and Kay Charlotte McClurg, sister Taylor McClurg and his grandmothers, Nancy Hall, Dorothy Cheatwood, Bernadine McClurg, uncles and aunts, Kevin & Sandy McClurg, Phil & Sherry McClurg, Steven & Morgan McClurg, Tommy Cheatwood & fiancé Wendy Dick, Kelly & Cathy Williamson, David & Leah Mayo; cousins, DJ Mayo, Tristan Williamson, Marissa McClurg as well as his honorary “sisters” Erika Brown, Stacie Cordell and Amanda Nino.

He is proceeded in death by his grandfathers and grandmother Tom & Elouise Cheatwood, Kurt Walther and James McClurg and cousin Evan Mayo.

A child of God from the beginning, Levi was dedicated to the Lord as a baby at Eastlake Church, the same sanctuary where his family and friends will now gather to grieve the end of his life.

A participatory remembrance service will be held on Saturday, December 13, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. at Eastlake Church, 2351 Otay Lakes Road, Chula Vista, California. All are welcome to join as we remember Levi’s life and celebrate the hope we have in God, who is both the beginning and the end—the Alpha and the Omega.
