Levi Wright will always be in his family members' hearts.
One week after the 3-year-old's passing, his mom Kallie Wright looked back at their time together.
In a June 11 Facebook post, she uploaded a video montage featuring many fond memories of Levi—with her referring to him by his nickname and writing, "We love you Beans."
Set to Carly Pearce's "Show Me Around" and Tucker Beathard's "I Ain't Without You," the tribute included throwback clips of Levi with Kallie, his rodeo star dad Spencer Wright and sister Steeley Wright. These included the late little one being born, saying "mama" and "dada" as a baby and giggling. The video also showed Levi playing outside—riding bikes, sledding and going on the swings—celebrating birthdays and spending time with his grandparents.
As Kallie noted in Levi's obituary, "he had a passion for tractors, excavators, skid steers and all heavy equipment" and could be seen driving his toy tractor and playing with his miniature trucks in the video. The clip ended with a painting of the toddler running through a field towards Jesus.
Levi was taken off life support in early June after he had been hospitalized for two weeks. He was involved in an accident while riding his toy tractor on May 21.
The obit recalled how Levi enjoyed playing with Steeley, often asked to hold his baby brother Brae Wright and looked up to his dad—with it noting "he wanted to be just like him and was well on his way." It also stated he loved dinosaurs, wearing his cowboy hat and horseback riding.
"Levi was exceptionally thoughtful and considerate for his age, he was constantly thinking of others," part of the obituary read. "His heart was pure, tender and oversized."

Kallie Wright shared a photo of son Levi—who was taken off life support in June 2024 following injuries sustained after he fell in a Utah river on a toy tractor—and daughter Steely alongside husband and rodeo star Spencer Wright in 2022 writing, "Snuck away to spend some time with Dad!!"
Kallie posted this photo of Levi with his face covered in chocolate in 2022, captioning the moment, "I can't not share this, he loves his ice cream!"
In February 2023, Levi and Steely helped their parents announce that there would be a baby boy joining their family. "We are so lucky!!" Kallie wrote at the time. "Thanks to my bestie Mindy Sue Clark for the fun reveal with the kids!"
Baby Brae was born in August 2023, Kallie shared on Facebook Aug. 2 writing, "Introducing Brae Milo Wright! Our hearts are so full!"
At the end of January, Kallie posted a photo of Levi and Steely posing in the field with their dogs.
As the family of a rodeo star, Levi and his siblings spent their fair share of time around horses, with Kallie posting this sweet image of her and Levi riding a horse together in March 2024.
During Levi's hospital stay, Kallie changed her Facebook profile photo to this sweet mother-son moment.
